Dad Iona - just heard about your phone. Do you want me to try to contact your provider so that they can stop it being used - and you building up any debt? Let me know ASAP what YOU have done, so that we know what we can do. Love Dad.

Mum Dear Iona, Just heard from Alan that you have lost your phone. That is not good. Can you buy another one? I'll talk to Dad about it so that you are set up with a phone. Your adventures are just so amazing. I am so impressed that you are teaching in a school for deprived children. You are making a difference. Always knew you would. We scattered Harry's ashes with dried flowers at Malham Cove, Yorkshire yesterday. It felt ok and the sun came out at the right moment. It is very beautiful and peaceful there. Alan is a real uni student now. He is so happy and confident - just loving Uni life. Lots and lots of love to my wonderful daughter. Mum xxxxxxxxxxx

Alan Sounds like you're having a good time so far :)!! Be good to see some pictures if you encounter a PC with more than floppy drives :P. Anyway, I'm off to Leeds on Sat as you know - accommodation is sorted finally - only 7 mins from the Campus! Alan.

Dad Glad you made it OK! Sounds like it is fun there - hope your Spanish develops - it should be useful up on the Inca trail. Lots of love, Dad
