Jacqui Lewis Spare Tickets you say - I don't even have to ask the man I think the answer will be YES!!!!!! He is wanting to see some of the rugby so I can always get him a ticket from you guys for his birthday!!! As I managed to only spend 3 pounds on him in Peru!!! Looking forward to seeing everyone Love Jacqui XXX

THE Ps Howdy Guys, The trips still sound amazing, although the Inca trail sounded very tough. We just got back from our first overnight festival with Kids. Electric Picnic, a mini Glasto only allow 30,000 people into this great festival. It was awesome, the Kids loved it. We lived it up in a campervan. The stars of the 3 day fest were Bjork, Beastic Boys, Aim, Undertones etc. We also went to the festival of world cultures the previous weekend with the likes of Kila etc playing. Class. It is amazing how quickly a year passes, as Eugene was there last year with a big hangover from a family wedding. We are mad busy as the moment, and finally put our house up for sale 2 weeks ago. Now sports trips start going to Prage next week for Ireland game. Then followed by trip to Paris for Ire v Frane rugby game. Then to Euro Disney for Ire v Argentina game 30th Sept (actually could have some spare tickets if you interested, not cheap though 120 to 190 euro). Then to Cardiff for 6th October for Qtr final NZ v France, Ire or Argentina (also got spare ticket for this, if interested). Anyway, look forward to seeing you soon. All the best, and enjoy the rest of your travels.

THE Ps Hey Jac Hope you're both having a great time. Many moons ago now, we stayed in a great hotel, think it was called Central Park Hotel or Central Parc. Very handy and reasonable at the time. As the name suggests, right near central park. We often uses www.hotels.com. great site. enjoy hey when you getting married?? Do we need to book flights to Vegas>>

THE Ps howdy guys. Loved your birthday message for Cian. We had a great day. My mam was over, and we all went to a heritage park in Kildare, took a kids train over the bog (much to the enjoyment of the "bog man"), and had lots of great indoor and outdoor play for the kids - avoided rain too. Then had a party when we got home and marky p and matsya came round. We went to croker with the fam on sunday for some great hurling with Grandad. So Cian been having an extended birthday celebration. Niamh enjoyed it also as she got to open and play with his presents, as well as get some herself, and she just loves having people around. Say hi to you mam. Did you manage to loose the clown or is he doing the inca trial with you! We all going to sheffield this weekend for Tatty's stag. We are just hoping we might have some nice weather. we have had three sunny days in a row, which is a relief from 56 continuous rainy days in Dublin. You guys picked a great time to away from the northern hemisphere. And just get back to see Ireland kicking ass in the rugby world cup. Anyway, enjoy the rest of your travels. Can't wait to see you guys again and hear your stories in person. All the best, and happy birthday Eug for sunday. All the best, John, Kelly, Niamh and Cian P

The Stringer Hi JC and Neen, Working at home today and just finished watching your latest video efforts as we havn't managed to get through them all - safe to say that neither of you are sane, Neen in particular !! Glad you've arrived safley and looking forward to the next video installment. Michael sends his love, he has his joint b-day party this Saturday - bouncy castle, face painter, sugar fuelled lunacy and a pinhada to beat with sticks.... right up his street. He is very excited about America as we all are and really looking forward to seeing you both. What he will make of the hot tub I have no idea. Anyway back to it and I will e-mail with more holiday stuff later. Take care and lots of love, The Stringers

THE Ps Hey Eug and jac, You looked at houses in North Lakes?? How bizarre. My sister Cath would have been living there when you looked! And our home in oz is about 10 mins from there. Hmmm. What's this Aust Cap Territory thing?? I thought you'd spent the whole time in Canberra. Haven't been on in ages, so have loads of pics to look at but it is great to see what you guys are up to. Johnny says he's not sure if you're going to Brazil but there have been warnings about pirahnas, though eug should be ok cause they only fancy things with a bit of meat. ;-0 Was it sept you guys were due back? Unreal how quickly time goes by. Is your itenary on here somewhere? What roughly are your travels to come? Hope you're having a ball. Loads of love, kel, johnny, niamh and cian
