hello boys - me again. Dave called Saturday pm to say he's tried calling you, to no avail, because he has your mascot!? if you want it posting on, please call them and say - otherwise it will be sent to UK.
Aaron, in case you didnt get my text, the bank transferred the money for me into Nationwide - some electronic wizardry - but it'll take 3 days to be available, so Wednesday probably.
talk soon, love, Al. xx
Bro, Bird And Nephew
Hello Bro/Uncle!! How are you mate? We are all doing fine and suprisingly getting quite a lot of sleep. Hope you are enjoying yourselves and have not hurt yourself doing all of the extreme sports that you have been telling us about. Finlay has changed alot in two weeks and now his hair has started to turn blonde (just like his mothers) and he is now up to 8lb 12oz(just like his father). Can't wait for you to get home and see him as he needs to see his nutty uncle and friends at work. We have tried telling him about you but he doesn't seem to understand. I don't know why, he's two weeks old now!! Have you caught Finn a shark yet? Remember, you said you were gonna bring him one home as a present. I will be dissapointed if you don't(only joking). Claire said to say a big hello from her and to also pass on a hug and kiss (god knows how) but she is thinking of you. Anyway, we will let you get on now and go and do whatever other daft things you want to do. We are all thinking of you and miss you like mad. Hope to see you soon so we can catch up. Loadsa love!! Chris, Claire and Finnxxxxxxxx

hi you guys, i'm posting a message so it must be saturday. Aaron, the cash is for less xtreme things - maybe eating - how is the diet, what's it contain, so much for the nutrition module at Uni! love you hun.
We still have 3 moggies,who have got used to less attention now you lot are away, and are probably more rotund with my feeding regime, ah well. It is looking more likely that I'll end up working in Leicester, hopefully with good guys like Gina and Trevor - like the very old days, will know more deffinite news as the year-end approaches and the organisation makes decisions. On the house front, I'm waiting for the freezer malarky to get sorted so flooring etc can be done and that room finally done - bathroom next! maybe you're staying away just long enough for the home improvements to be done - but it's bound to affect the rent!
Geoff and I may have a day at the coast tomorrow - forecasts dry and bit sunny so need to make the most, also looking at a weeks' 'beach and book' hol before year-end, but executing our plans is sometimes our weakness!
All for now my gorgeous ones, love to everyone. xxxxxxxx

Hi Dan - have been reading your message and it sounds as though you're having a great time .... hope you've got plenty of insurance with all the x-stream sports you are doing!!! We popped over to see your new neffy at Chris and Clare's and he is absolutely gorgeous. Your mum told me that no-one could hold Finlay except a grandma ..... and I said I am 15 times a grandma so I was well in there!! We hadn't been to Chris and Clare's before so it was nice to have a cupp, catch up and cuddle Finlay all at once .... I always did like value for money!! We are still working hard on our semi-demolished house - the lounge this time. Like you mum said, the weather is now much cooler, the leaves are beginning to fall, the swallows have gone and that whole bloody SAD thing is about to start!! Perhaps I should take a year out of work and do the travel thing! Hahaha - I'd love to do the scuba and white water rafting bit but I don't think I could cope with bungee jumping! We are both well and all the dogs are OK ... in fact they're probably better than we are. Anyway, enough of your northern Yorkie relatives for now. Take care of yourself and we look forward to seeing a fitter leaner (and browner!) you whenever you hit home shores again. Love, Ray and Jan

Everyone here is fine but life seeems very quiet without you guys around. Kepp having a good time, keep the picccys coming (not at all jealous but feel i need a change from the skateboarding quadraplegic that is currently my wallpaper at worK!) and stay in tough. love to you all as always x x x x x

Hey everyone, hope the pics are to your liking, kinda sums up what we're doing with ourselves! we're in Kaikura in the south of NZ at the minute. arrived on the day of the 'Sea Fest' which is the biggest weekend of the year here and people come from all over NZ to visit... it was a big mess of going out and partying, loads of fun! just having a day to recover now so a slow lazy day is definitely on the cards. should be going to Queenstown soon to do the 'Thrillogy', three progressively higher bungee jumps, we're all feeling pretty invincible now after surviving scuba diving, white water rafting (the pics will be on soon) and skydiving (the best thing i've ever done) so we're going for extreme sports all the way now! haha, anyway, some little ones now... Tahitigigolo (stephane) missing partying with you guys too mate, Rarotonga is still the best place we've been! hope you get a new diving job sorted mate, let us know where and we'll pay you a visit. take it easy mate and keep the messages coming!... Christina, hey cheeky! hope your good, we're all having a whale of a time. hope the savings going well for your next holiday, let us know where your going... ma and pa, hope alls good, and your both enjoying your new grandson, how is the little nipper?? thanks for the pics, its nice to see him. ok, gotta go. love to you all and hope your all well. keep the messages coming and keep us up to speed with whats going on wherever you are.

Alex
hi guys, a quick message to keep you abreast of the terrifically exciting world as it is in the east midlands. I'm now seeking a refund on the fridge/freezer, cos they cant replace it on a like-for-like basis, and we have a new washing machine - other one finally gave up so Miller Bros got my custom for the fourth time.
just booked a christmas shopping trip for Geoff and me to Edinburgh at the start of december. bmibaby had tickets for 4.99 out and 1.99 return from EMA - unfortunately accommodation is not discounted.
so now you've re-scheduled your tour, what does it look like - dates and everything?
hope you successfully sky-dived by the time this is posted - love you guys.

Hey everyone! only me...again. just a quick message to say that alls going well. yes ma, we left the farm a couple of days ago and headed to Rotorua. was pretty cool, did some lugeing (like a 1 man bobsled) which, as you can imagine with us three, was a lot of fun! today we went white water rafting down a grade 5 river with a 7m waterfall! boat nearly tipped over which was funny and we got some great pics! we've got a skydive tomorrow but we may extend that to a skydive, jetboat rapid ride, bungee jump and helicopter ride for a bit more cash... we'll see, gonna have to check those pennies! anyway. love to you all and i'm sorry if my indian baby upset anyone, it was only meant as a joke. take care everyone and my love to you all and my new nephew (thanks for the email pics by the way, he's a little star).
