You may have noticed that Sam has discovered smilies! He thinks they're hilarious and when he's typing you a message I can hear him laughing his head off over them! He doesn't feel 'challenged' by the sums though! Can't wait to read this week's blog - crossing my fingers you got your hands on some babies! xx

Hi Laura - sounds like you're having a great experience. Will keep reading about your adventures!! Take care of yourself.

Love Julie & Auntie Phyllis

goodness i hope that sam is keeping you entertained with his hysterically random messages.

Hi Laura I am keeping up with your blogs. Difficult to believe your over half way through your visit to Malawi.Mum Dad and I went to London yesterdayto see Connie Fisher in the Sound of Music, Linda and I also went round Buckingham Palace,did;nt see the Queen!!! Are you bringing home some tea!! anddid you have a nice soak in the bath. Bas still causing havoc barking at sues new puppy. See you soon look after yourselves Love Grandma.

Hi Laura and Emily!

Thought it was time to get the hang of this blog thing! I've just been catching up with your adventures. So far so good! Sounds like the time of your life! I could leave you a 'dutch' joke too, but it's a bit crude so I will spare your sensibilities until they have been completely obliterated by Malawian gin. That shouldn't be too long ... take care and keep those messages coming. Lol (mostly Val but Dave loves you too!)

Right now.first things first. I want a full list of ALL the birds.Must get priorities right. 2nd thing.. so its a case of"going dutch" with the "double dutch" again is it....seeif they work that out? Tell them of course dodgy is a compliment like it is for your Michael Schumacher ( maybe you would prefer Lewis Hamilton now) and Captain Jones with his dodgy open toed tree house. I was jealous of that.

Glad to see you did some work in the end. Did you deliver any babies?

Love Gdad
