Hallo sister
good to see you are back on the message board and blogs. I will keep checking these regularly and make sure Mum checks them as well.
It is now half past midnight and I have just finished a night of poker in which I lost all of my money (ok only 10?), but I have won the previous 3 times so I am not happy!!
Not much else to report, life is ticking along. We are now preparing for my Birthday party - we have booked a casino for an evening, so that should be really fun.
The cats and Katharina are all fine and say hello.
Take care

Hi Diva
Sorry haven't checked in with you for ages... been looking at your older photos (of course to check out the fella!).
January has flown past - life is pretty good although getting over the inevitable winter colds and runny noses. Jez and I have been enjoying a relaxed weekend, went down to Hove yesterday and walked along the seafront it was a lovely sunny day. We are off skiing in a few weeks with Sally and Martin. Have got all my thermals organised and just and excited about going to Bulgaria. Still gigging with the Band although its been quiet since xmas. Miss you like crazy honey. love loads x x x x
Oh Brother!
Hello Little Sister.
I am impressed you are up to date on your journal entries. Be good to see the photos if you can get that working.
So you are now working in a vineyard - does that mean you spend your day stood in a big barrel squashing grapes?? Or is it not that glamorous??
Life here is OK - we had the first full on snow fall of the season on Wednesday, so Munich is now white and bloody cold. We did a bit of skiing a couple of weeks ago and hoping to go again in a week or so.
Work is insane at the moment. I have far too much to do and I am normally exhausted come Thursday! I am hoping it will calm down this week - we will see.
We are back to England in 3 weeks to celebrate Xmas (??) and for Neil's 30th (big party in Brighton) so that should be great. We are low on steak and ale pie, ginger nuts and K's cereals as well - so we are due a trip home!
It is 10pm, which means it is bed time (what a rock and roll life I now lead!!) - take care
Brother x
PS - K says hi too.

Hey guys tried again to put some photos on! It didnt work and im starting to get v frustrated! I am off now to work on a rural farm so i can apply for my seconed working holiday visa (so i can spend more time getting to know the lovely Jay)
Im hoping i will still be able to email but I know what small towns are like when it comes to the internet, so if you dont hear from me for a while its because im vine training on a grape farm in Mildura in the middle of nowhere!
Wish me luck......

Hi Rhian
Happy New Year! Sorry have been very slack in writing to you - couldn't do anything over the Christmas period as our email system was down.
Had a very busy Christmas period with lots of visitors. Our two girls and their husbands and two grandchildren came round on Christmas Day. opps - forgot to tell you that Teresa had another child - Oliver was born on 1st November weighing in at 9 lbs!!
Had a fab new years eve with some friends we met at our Salsa Class - went to a dinner dance and danced until 1.00 am
Saw Beccy and Jez yesterday for dinner with Liz and Peter. They are all very excited about skiing - we go in 6 weeks.
We have the MENCAP Party on Saturday and I know we will miss your choreography - will send you a photo!
Take care - lots of love Sally
K & Stuart

Hi love, well it was nice to talk to you on Xmas day, we caught up with everyone and all is well as far as we can make out, sad about S&K but hopefully K will get better soon. We are on for the big day on tues i shall be glad when it is done, I am going to spend some time now planning the new kitchen so i can buy it in the sale, then i am off to 59 to clean the lounge windows then all is ready, just the last bit of packing then it can all go in the van, we have a new phone number 01323 896190, i shall get the new email when i reregister with a new server. We saw Myles and joan and gran on boxing day which was nice, only problem is we are so tired we don't make the best of company. can you give us Jays address then i can always write to you. well love you have a lovely new year and may it bring you everything you want

Hi darlin,
again the journal entries on this website are starting to slack - do I need to warn you again young lady?
Well Xmas plans changed on Friday. K has got a throat infection at the moment and she went to see her doctor who has told her to stay in for a week and not to fly!!! So after a few hours of cancelling everything, reorganising mum and dad, boxing up parcels to send to England, buying and decorating a tree and buying loads of food for Xmas we are now ready for a full on English Xmas in Germany.
So as you can guess all our presents are in England!!!! The only present which is not from me or K, is yours which we got about a month ago. The problem is that because we thought we were going to UK and there was not going to be space in the bags, we decided to open it - so now we don't even have that present :-( Teaches me for being naughty and opening presents before Xmas day!!
But thanks for the present, it is very cool, I haven't solved it yet, it is actually a lot harder than it first looks. I put your present in the post to Elizabeths about 2 weeks ago, so hopefully that is there by now.
So we will be here all day on Xmas day - so please give me a call, or we can give you a call.
Take care
brother x
