Thanks for the postcard with the dancing fountains - it came yesterday! Do hope all is well and that you are still having a great time. I am doing fine and enjoying my time at home pottering (not back at work until beginning of May) Your Mum and Nan are off to Spain today for a week - its a shame my op wasn't a couple of weeks sooner as I would have joined them, never mind, maybe next time. The sun is shining here today so may even get out in the garden to sit by the pond. Andy and Dan are at work but Naomi is on Easter hols still so once she surfaces, we may do a spot of relaxed retail therapy!! Let me know if the corn plasters work as I may need to invest in some myself!!!! Keep posting the pictures as they are brilliant - everyone looks really lovely and happy.
Loads of Love,
Maria, Andy,Dan & Naomi

Have your fingers ceased up or can't you remember how to type? Is your schedule so busy that you can't take time off to put a message on your board?
Only joking, hope you are having a great time at the beach and not getting through too many pina coladas!!!!!!
I'm off out shopping with Nan to Hemel!
Love you loads,
Mumxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Jen,
Did you realise that you sent at least 10 of the same blog messages?! I think Dad is developing dyslexia as his spelling leaves a lot to be desired!! Either that or it must be early onset of alzheimers!!!
Hav dropped Nan at the hairdressers and will have to go back for her shortly.
We are having all the family over on Easter Sunday for a get together and roast dinner!
Hope you are still using plenty of factor 50 and not getting burnt at all!
Have fun, miss you loads.
Love
Mum + Co. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Jen, good to talk the other day the girls sound great! The weather here is awful so looks as though it will be golf in the rain again and no gardening! Sounds like you should have a relaxing time in the hotel ready for the orphanage whhen you return. I hear you are spending fortunes on presents for the security gurad, careful he may think you are rich! Take care and have a great time, keep the texts coming
Loads of love Dad X
Jenny
Sorry not had a chance to write my blog yet for the last week, been too busy entertaining 32 girls all day for the last week! We are heading to the beach this weekend for Easter break, so hopefully will get around to it then. Im told its snowing in England, we are just about coping here with 35 degrees being average daily temperature! Missing u all. Jenny x
Mum
Hi Jen,
Hope you are still talking to me after the little joke about da ironing!!!!!!!
It's 4 degrees here and feels colder due to the fierce wind!
Do you get to reply to your messages or is it only one way?
Tom is exerting himself by playing on his playstation game, which I am sure he most be brilliant at by now, as he seems to have been playing on it for days!!!
Katie has gone to the gym-yes you did read correctly I said the GYM!! Naomi has gone with her!
Dad, of course has gone to work to earn the meagre crust to keep us! Lol!
Hope it isn't toooo hot there!
Missing you loads (But not your laundry!) Lol!
Love

Hi Jen
Glad to hear you are becoming very handy with the paint brush. We were thinking about getting the decorators in but have shelved that idea and will leave it to you when you get back!!
Also glad to hear you haven't lost your touch at thinking on your feet when it comes to giving lessons without any plans or equipment!!
You could give Katie a few tips if she manages to get onto a course!!
Don't forget to use plenty of suncream and buy some more if you are running out!!
Off to do some ironing now! Not that you will probably have used one since you left! (You didn't exactly use one much before you left!!)
love you loads,
Mum and Coxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Jenny
Good to see you are having loads of fun, enjoying every moment, and have clearly forgotten all those last minute jitters. The elephant orphanage sounds fantastic, didn't realise you were visiting a children's orphanage - you'll probably want to adopt a few when you get back! It certainly sounds like you're having a "ball". I reached the next decade in my life at the weekend - apparently life now begins! One can only hope........... ;-)
Anyway, i'll be off, don't want to bore you. Sue has been keeping me up to date as well as she is texting you. I think by now she has probably told you about my new "hobby" course i signed up for - sorry to everyone else reading this - i know you will probably be intrigued, but i can't possibly tell you all in writing as i'll never live it down.
Look after yourself, and i await the next lot of piccies.

Hi jen, just spotted the photographs, Dubai looked amazing and the aquarium brilliant. See what you meant about the hotel. Hadn't realised there were so many elephants at the sanctuary. Well it's a rainy Saturday morning here so it looks like office work rather than golf! Mum tells me you have linked up with Sarah for a few days to explore the beaches and costal region. A week to go and you'll be down at peter's children's orphanage. Your BA Executive Club card arrived, don't guess you need it at the moment! Don't forget to update your blog as I am sure loads of your friends will want to be keeping track on you! Love Dad, Mum, Tom and Katie XXXX

Hi Jen, been a long day again good to see you have started posting messages, great picture of the Burj Dubai. Hope you enjoy the city tour. Mum and Kate are on their way to Manchester not sure where she got the idea from that you were riding camels! Phoned Vodafone they have turned off your message service so suggest you let all your contacts know so they can just text you. Take care Dadxxxx
Mum
Glad to hear you have got a flash room! It will make up for the basic stuff you have to endure for the next couple of months! Hope you enjoy your camel ride.
