Hi Sara-John, a brief message Sara. I have had a brief word with Pat+Kathy and they have intimated that should you require additional funding and as they are your closest relatives they would be only to happy to let you have access to their platinum------no really. Can i have my matches back now. Take care Luv Da ++ p.s. John, Millwall for promotion.

I LOVE YOU MUM X X X X

Hi Sara Just missed your call the other evening went onto the voice mail. Got your message but could'nt get you back, really sorry to have missed the chat. You must be exhausted lying on the beach in the sun maybe not as hot as Los Angeles is at the mo. Pa is off doing the soup run and I have just cleared out the hall ready for decorators. Hard life for some. Something seems the wrong way round to me ? Hows it going John, please make sure you hang on to those Sun Glasses. Enjoy January in Rarotonga and think of us in Uckfield where the winds are blowing at around 60mph at the mo. Blue's hair is standing on end practically I'd best let him in. Much love to you both Mum

Hi all!! Have safely arrived in Raratonga.. Room is lovely with a beautiful view of the beach. At a price though but worth it! Had glorious sunshine when first arrived but we are now in the midst of a tropical storm that beats all.. Luckily we have another 3 weeks so we are bound to see the sun at some point.. John has still managed to look like a rasberry today though! Love to you all and will write journal soon as we have limited time on the mail x x xLove to all and keep writing as they are much much much appreciated.. Lovely to hear from you Hayley and Jean x x x PS Food is awesome Jean and the fresh fish out of this world x

Hello Sara, hello John Been trying to get through to your site for a few days but the bl**** machine kept telling me it was down for maintenance. I'm looking forward to seeing your photos and reading more messages. Tell us more about the food!!! Anyway, this was just to let you know I was thinking of you! Lots of love from a grey, wet and very windy Winchester! Take care Jean

Hi Jon and Sarah sounds all pretty cool but cant wait for the pictures . Everyone says Hi ,and be safe luv mary paul x

Hi Uncle John & Auntie Sara Hope you are having fun and building sandcastles :-) I had may hair cut today... Mummy has put some pictures here for you... http://groups.msn.com/BESTKIDS/ridingourbikes.msnw Love & Cuddles Lucy xxxx PS. Cuddles from Jack too.

Safe travel folks !! It's a terribly hard life for the pair of you..i have been tossing and turning at night wondering if you are both putting too much strain on yourselves..... Then came to the conclusion if swimming..eating..sunbathing and exploring is too much.. come back give me the tickets and i will gladly tough it out for you !!! Speak to you at the other end.. all my love xx ps.. hi Zoe, aren't those proud mummy moments better than anything in the world.. now Zac has made me so proud by doing the decent thing and sleeping through more... molly has taken it upon herself to do the reverse (bless her musn't complain she is poorly !!) hope your all well and good luck with the potty training..i am just about to start it.. you may hear the sighs from there !! love kate xx

Sounds like this next stop off will be easy to pack for. Just keep the bikini at the top with the snorkel. Sara can do the same :~) Oh and keep the paracetamol handy too. Those cocktails can really dehydrate you in that heat... ...have a great time.

Fab to hear from you both; I watched Oceans 11 the other night just be with you in spirit hahahaha Hope John KEPT his winnings and not like our night out at the casino where he was winning and bet his winnings... i.e. losing out :-)) Will look forward to a night at the casino when you are both back so you can show us how its done. Kate: was going to do my proud Mummy moment with Jack using his potty but as I started to type I was confronted with shreks from Lucy upstairs of "JACK WHY DIDNT YOU USE YOUR POTTY" guess the proud mummy moment will have to wait for another day :s Take Care and chat soon !
