Hi Girls I'm pleased you have broken up and can enjoy a well deserved rest after all your hard work this term. Sorry I can't text at the mopment as there is no reception, but will ring when I can love Daddy xxx

Thanks Philip, nice thought!!!! Actually the food is really great here although I did give the guinea pig a miss for lunch today ;o)

Thanks Ken, nice try but my Dad's not that colour ,o)

reading your entry about the snow capped mountiains whilst flying across South America made me think of that film 'Alive'I saw the other night, the one about the plane crashing into the Andes....... where they ended up eating the dead passengers.....never mind I'm sure you are dining on the best food that South America can provide....fingers toes etc....probably charged at $25 a plate, a la Rio Cocktails. Glad you're having fun!

Hi dad, Hope you had a good day of travelling. It was our last day of school today which is a relief! Missing you lots. The photos look great! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Grae - think you have it the wrong way round with you being joey, you must be chandler as you've had your photo taken with your dad (drag queen). Glad all is still going well, look forward to more updates.

Hi Hok Ee Hope your golf trip good. OK will try to avoid the locals blow pipes .o) But think it will be more pan pipes than blow pipes.......................which may be worse!!!

Hi Jen

Didn´t think I would inflick my salsa ´skills´ on the locals as my medical insurance didn´t cover it :o) xx

Hi Kev I´m Joey, you´re Chandler the one with the very dry sense of humour ;o)

OK will look out for Reading FC shirt for you whilst I´m out there

Grae - fantastic photos - Rio looks like a great place. Did the Salsa classes come in handy after all?? take care! x
