Hi de hi Campers Well doesn't time fly and what a busy little bee I have been. Just did a massive sell out conference which went really well....except for water pouring into the conference room and throwing out my electrics!!!! So I have declared war on the hotel and they are learning the hard way not to mess with me!!!! Anyway apart from that its getting all quiet here, went over to Clares on saturday night for our xmas celebrations where I encountered a vegetarian xmas dinner hmm, well it wasn't horrible but then it wasn't a patch on Margi's xmas dinner. I got lots of nice presents...all lepoard print and 'very you CherylAnne' hmmm are they trying to tell me something? I did manage to fall off my high heels and hurt my ankle - no surprise I hear you cry...well this time I was actually sober, I did it on the way to the pub - how embarassing! Anyway off home on Friday to spend nearly two weeks with the parentals, although I will probably spend more time across the road...especially since they now have a spare room!!! I am glad you are having a good time, have an amazing Xmas and New Year. C xxxxx

Hello my Yuletide Intrepids Lovely to hear you are still enjoying yourselves, not coming home for crimbo i Guess!! Don`t blame you, all frostie and cold here, not good for an old boy!! Picture`s as usual are fantastic, taking some getting used to seeing you (Zoe) in Jesus creepers though Lol. When you said you were roughing it a bit i didn`t realise it meant Paul having to dig the Latrines at hot water beach, S##t Job ! Least they self flush though!! Paul your a natural on a horse mate, entered you for the grand National next year, you could jump those fences without a nag with those long legs of yours!! The move went well, finally got a cooker after 10 days of takeaways, sounds good but going off Chinese Prawn Omelette and chips!! Mark,Heidi and Neve are back safe with us and Heidi not Mark, luckily for me, passed on your big hug, nearly as good as one of yours!! you know nothing beats having one of my kids give me a hug really. Not ready for xmas yet, been to much going on with the move and work so must get my act together soon. Won`t be the same without you all here but as long as you are all safe and happy then i will be fine. Keep on living it, Watch out for each other and Low Flying Tables!!!! Lots and Lots of love Dad & Sonia xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Not much else to report, actually, there was a TORNADO that ripped through north london yesterday. Thats about as exciting as England is at the moment.

Oh, and i'm gonna try decorating my house this weekend... well i say try!

Hi My wet intrepids
Hi Everyone and Happy Xmas to you all, bit early i know but i will only forget later!!
Photo`s look fantastic, it seems such a pity Paul had to sit on the bank taking them while you enjoyed yourself Zoe!! Are you the one whose head looks its trying to disappear between your shoulders on the warm-up shots, you always were camera shy Lol.
So pleased you are still having a great adventure feel i am living it with you both.
Can`t work out why you would call Alcholic`s Anonymous when you locked yourself out of Toby!! TWICE HA HA. Good luck Paul tried to warn you.
Keep living it, Miss you more each day
Loads of love

Absolutely brilliant!!!
Mum won't be happy!
Fancy us saying 'take care of yourselves'

Well Done indeed.
Talk to you later
