Hi sam and kerry, hope the pink suitcase is travelling well and so are you both, hope you had a good hangover after australia day, glad we did'nt win the ashes! Patch and Tarka had a good run up the railway line on friday it was a lovely bright day with lots of frost, you won't be seeing that for a while hopefully. Derby have drawn Plymouth in the next round of the FA Cup, Bristol Rovers nearly deserved to win on saturday, went to the nags for a couple of drinks. Looking forward to john's 21st party will have lots of drinks for you, have a wonderful journey enjoy while your young because getting old and working is boring! Have a wonderful time in NZ and Fiji lots and lots of love from janet and patch xxx

g'day you flamin gallars, hows sunny australia treating you? uni is still very depressing, except that this time its depressing with loads of coursework. if you decide you need to take a few hours out the sun then i dont mind posting you a couple of essay questions! still managing to go out a bit tho - kinki kasualty last week, very messy. me and mole went in full army gear. think they are on facebook if you can access it! anyway the only real reason im posting a message is coz i met some1 with the funniest name in the world (it even beats your randomers) - NOELEEN! she wasn't impressed when i laughed for hours when she introduced herself! to make things even more hilarious, moley pulled her! anyways, keep safe and watch out for those stingrays John
