Hello you Finally got on to your site and have enjoyed reading what you have been up to and it sounds fantastic. You sound like you are having a brilliant time even if you are home sick. We were all round at Brian and Teresa's on Sunday for an early Christmas as Mike and I are up at my parents. It was good to see everyone and we couldn't believe how much Lloyd had changed - proper little boy now and walking everywhere. Sarah is going to be super fit chasing after him. We all missed you but it was good to hear from your Mum what you have planned. Thanks very much for the Aussie Christmas card it was very sweet of you. Enjoy the experience Jodi and stay safe. Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year. We'll have a drink for you! Lots of Love Rachel and Mike xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Babes got your postcard thanks i had had a really naf day at work that day and i came home to your postcard which cheered me up loads. Sounds fab that Santa Pub Crawl! sounds like you are having a fab time, missing ya loads though. Update on the house, just finished stripping all the paper from the lounge only tooke me a couple of hours with just a scraper! came off really easily. Gotta fill in all the holes and get it ready for wall papering. Funature arrives this friday so gotta clear up a bit so it will fit in (at the mo i am using mum & dads camping chairs which are ok better than the boxes we had the first few days!!) as soon as i can ill send you a picture of the house and of Shane in his scholl nativity play he was a lamb! so cute but just before he had fallen over a split his lip, so he wasnt quite in the mood for it. I am at mums looking at your site as i dont get much time at work now its soooooooooooooooooooooo busy and this saturday it all gets worse with all the free loaders coming away for christmas, oh well keep ill smiling and it will all be over soon (it seams to be working) Love ya loads & miss ya even more Ratty
