Jasmine Hello you... are you still in Zambia... I cant see any recent blogs!! I want to come visit in 2010 so please send me details!! LOVE YOU!!!! Hope you had a merry xmas - have a great new year and early wishes for a brilliant birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Andy Hi Big guy, Hope you have a wicked Christmas and New year mate! missing you loads, Seb wants to see his big uncle Marcus! x

Ryan Marcus, Hope all is good mate. Drop me a line on the email when you get a chance...............

Luppers Hi Baby, So sorry I can't talk to you tonight. The thought of hearing your voice nearly brings me to tears (in a really good way!) God I miss you but although I know times are tough for you, I'm so proud that you have stuck it out and what an amazing collection of memories and photos you have gathered. I'm off on Sunday so let's try and skype again then. Unlike everyone elses messages I reckon you should go and wrestle some wildlife, just come back in one piece. Make sure you are maxing out the experience as I feel like I've lost half of myself with you away so it needs to be worth it for both of us. All my love baby cous cous, luppers xxxxx

Andy Hey big guy hope you are well sounds like you're having a great time and wonderful experience out there? Have tried calling you a few times but with no joy, not surprising really. Have loads of things to tell you when you get back. Don't scare the crocodiles and stop spying on the randy hippo's, i know what you're..bloody perve!

Tom Hey big fella, hope your not getting too close to the locals and by that I mean the large grey wrinkled ones! (yes Marcus,, I'm talking about the elephants!) Love the photos, looks like your having the best one ever. We're off to Le mans next weekend so I'm sure we'll all have a drink to ya (and maybe smash some chairs up too) lol. stay in touch dude. love to ya Tom Jazz and boys XXXX

Kate Babe, So good to read your stories and sounds like you are finding your feet out there. Will send you a long email very soon - all well this end finally, was a little hairy with my baby niece for a while but she's through the worst and on the mend now thankfully. Working until mid August then still definitely plan to come out and see you, miss you like crazy man, it's weird that you're not up the road but I'm proud of you for taking on the adventure (you freakin' lunatic!). Ryan all good, his mum is pretty poorly now but he's holding up - like you say, certain things/people/experiences kinda make you realise you have to make the best of life while you can and you are certainly doing that! Speak soon gorge and will send that email really soon. Big love for now, Batesy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Anja I cant believe you got that close to a wild elephant....amazing! Sounds like you are having the time of your life! Love you bro xxxx
