Mum Can't believe it's almost time for you to come home, can't wait to see you and hear about your trip. Enjoy the remainder of your holiday, take great care of yourself, love you lots, miss you loads, Mum xxx

Your guardian angel! Hey gorgeous, thanks for keeping us all entertained with your updates. We are most definitely in need of a big catch up. I don't know if I've even had a chance to tell you about my trips yet but I am going to be in Egypt when you get back, following that I'm off to LA and New York with work and then I am rushing back to do a 10k run with Hamish in Swansea!! I could come home on Sat, Sep 27 or the following weekend I could do the whole weekend and I know Mum will be back home too so we could have a photo sharing Woods-Taylor family reunion! I might even see if Hamish is free as it's about time I got your seal of approval. If James is around too we could do a BBQ maybe...anyway once I am back from Swansea I will call you and we can do a mini catch up prior to our proper get together to be scheduled asap. Love and miss you loads. Julie xxx

David (and Tina) Hope all is going well on your trip and that you are enjoying it and have recovered from your injuries and hangovers! Julie is staying with Nan in Thorpe Bay this weekend. What is Botswana like? Take care. Looking forward to another blog posting. Love us x

Mum It sounds absolutely amazing, hope your birthday was great. Belated birthday when you come home! Hope you received e mail greeting card?! Will show Nan round the corner a copy of last blog. Missing you lots, looking forward to next update and seeing lots of photos. Keep safe, don't bring any stray animals home! Lots of love as always, xxxxx

David Amazing to read your 2nd blog. Are there any animals out there that you haven't seen? Gave a copy of your first blog to your Nan at Thorpe Bay (she's good at texting but hasn't yet got access to the net) and will print out this second one and give it to her tomorrow (Weds 23rd July) when I see her. (I check to see that there isn't anything too shocking for her.....!) Have a Really Great 22nd Birthday tomorrow! (or hope you had a really great 22nd birthday if you're reading this afterwards)It's pointless saying don't do anything too silly - I seem to remember that's partly what birthdays are for! So just enjoy yourself. Lots of love David and Tina x

James wow sounds unbelievably amazing, really glad your enjoying your self lovely. hope the good times keep rolling. cant wait to see you. Love you, take care x x x

Your big sis Hey little Nic, Wow sounds like you're having an amazing time I can't wait to see all your photos. How can we contact you on your birthday? Let us know what the texting situation is. Squillions of kisses and loads of love. Ju PS. Do you think I could borrow your white and red wrap around summer dress?! Am going to Barcelona this weekend with Hamish...tell you more after the trip ;-)

Katie Hey honey, nice blog. Your trip sounds amazing so far can't believe how many animals you have seen already. I am home now, i have a job for the summer where i used to work and i am applying for travel agent jobs. I hope you feel better soon, I had a spot of not feeling very well in thailand, so i kind of know what you are going through. Keep enjoying yourself. Miss you oodles noodles xxxxxxxx

[email protected] The trip sounds amazing so far (not too sure about the snake pit bit), can't wait to see some photographs. Missing you loads, update soon, love you lots Mum xxx

David Just found the message board button after I'd e-mailed you via this site. What is the answer to your mum's query about the cost of text messages. Could be handy in case you haven't got an extension lead long enough to run your pc (but I guess you'll have one for your your hairdryer anyway!) Love David (and Tina) x
