Dear Penny

How are you? I hope you are having a nice time. Gypsy and I are away at the moment - we are staying with George, Helen and Tina. They are very nice people. Sometimes tho Helen shouts at me, especially when I get up on the kitchen worktops. Once she didnt catch me - she'd left her roast dinner up there for only a matter of minutes and I ate her beef. I think she may have noticed tho because she called me a naughty boy - I tried to keep out of her way but she kept finding me. Sometimes at night she tries to get us to go out in the dark - she throws nice things out for us to eat and then shuts the door behind us. I try to look through the glass in the door and get her attention - most times she opens the door again because I think she feels sorry for us. We like climbing all over her, George and Tina. Tina has been away for over two weeks now. George went away too - when he came back he looked very dirty - he was a lot darker than when he went. Anyway must go - think the treats are coming out. Miss you lots mummy love Ro xxxxx

Hello darlings, thank you for the messages and taking on my two little babies. Hope they're not doing your heads in already, they like attention so they won't leave you alone for a minute. Oh and thanks Helen for calling, it was so nice to actually speak to someone from back home instead of email!!!

To everyone, I'm still here having a good time, working but a bit bored this afternoon after being super efficient and finishing my work early today. It's a bank holiday here on Monday so I get a long weekend - woohooo!!!

Congrats Tina on the promotion, that's fantastic news. Your skills were wasted anyway in your previous role, so its good they're finally recognising you potential honey.

Love to everyone, lots of hugs and kisses to all my friends and family. Missing you guys - but still having fun as always! xxxx

P.S. Anyone at Reuters using RM, I'm on your distribution list so you can RM me now!!! Cool eh?!

Hiya hun, just a quickie; got back today from Cyprus - ma and pa are well. Romeo and Gypsy are so lovely - we've all taken to them even G can you believe. Will update you soon xxx

Just to say I was meant to type babes not baba lol. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

hey baba just a quickie as i'm planning on flooding your hotmail account even more. Hope everythings going well over there, i'm off work for six weeks now woooooooooooooohooooooooooooooooooo, i've been promoted too(happy days) will explain all in the email i've yet to right. The cats say hi they r sitting by my feet. Romeo spent the first day hiding behind my bed but he's now gained the confidence to come downstairs and climb on everything and keep knocking the water out of his water bowl everywhere so I think they will be fine lol. Big kisses and hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey Pen. I don't know what everyone else's doing, 'cos I just got back from holiday myself - 11 days off total in Derbyshire, B'ham (went to Cadbury World, for the children, of course!) and to sister's wedding in Norfolk.
Am now in SC testing ofr EDT move in like 16 days. Jeff S left, RN2W reunion on 28/06 (no feedback from anyone who went). Big celebration for Olympics 2012 in London yesterday.
So, what's yr job? And need photos of new look hair for comment....

Where the hell is everyone? I still want messages on this website too you know. It's no good flooding my hotmail account with emails, coz it takes too long to reply!

What you all up too guys? I had a real 'homesick' moment the other night, my roommate spent an hour trying to cheer me up with conversation (ah bless!) and then I managed to fall asleep while he was wide awake 'til 5 in the morning. LOL I feel bad, but it was a bit funny....

Want gossip - whatever it is. Corrie, Enders, life stuff - anything! Can you tell I'm really bored at work? Singing "I can't wait for the weekend to begin...."

Hi Ash, yes you're right I was very busy in New Zealand, but I made sure I did everything I wanted to do in case it was the last time I got to see it. And I assure you, I love every minute of it. The country is fantastic and beautiful. I'm back in sydney looking for a job now. If you don't already know, I'm staying on here for a while. I'm even being offered sponsorship, so things are looking extremely good right now. I still miss working with you guys, but I'm looking forward to joining the workforce here in Australia and experiencing a more laid-back approach to life.
Keep in touch, I always enjoy the little messages you send. Take care, Pen.

Hey Pen. Goodness you've been busy. Making a knife, Parachuting, luge, car-crashing, tree-swingin', sheep shearin', proposin', heli-hikin' and eating a bit of possum (makes me retch to think about it!). Shame no whale or dolphin shenanigans. Is there anywhere in NZ you've not seen now?!
News here - Frank O'Pornstar is back on the job here. I'm bust a-NASH-in' (move to Canry Wharf). Things generally grim, but the same spirit remains, and always have Curly, Larry & Moe (the Three Stooges, AKA SIs) to keep us laughing!
So what-ho in Sydney? Cheerio. Ash

Hi tina, so glad to hear from you. Bet you're missing your parents tho, gutted I wasn't there to say goodbye. Anyway, I'm now officially obese and have started a diet before I burst out of all my clothes. Hope everyone there is well, and you haven't gone insane from the problem child you've been assigned. Keep in touch xxx

Hey pen, how r u babe? Hope u r ok, sounds and looks like u r having a wicked time. Sorry i aint been in touch for a while its been manic what with moving and everything and well i'm just crap lol. My parents flew out tonight. Erm nothing exciting happening in Essex or Tower Hamlets i'm afraid so haven't got much to report oh apart from they have given me the worst child in the school to look after so next time u see me i'll be grey hahaha. Anyways babes keep us posted on how u r doin. Love u and miss u millions xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I love New Zealand, I'll live here for a while one day I'm sure. But first Sydney and then maybe Stewart Island because my husband will be missing me...! LOL xxx
