Hi Hon (Rys),

Looking at your photos brings back soooo many happy memories of when we were there last January, the beach, food, massages and weather we HAVE to do it again!!! Isn't Froggy becoming photogenic, what a poser (just like the person who gave him to you hey Rys) ha ha :-)!!! Just so you know Im organising my birthday bash on the 30th Sept (everyone is welcome to come) its basically because the girls wanted a good excuse to show off there tans......it's all about them (personal joke)?!?!
Right Spence......i'm counting on you to look after these girls so don't disappoint me!!! Have a great time mate and look forward to catch up hopefully on the 30th sept.
Love you lots Rys,

Hey Rys, off traveling again eh? Luckily I'm not too jealous as Ben and I have just booked to go to Japan for a few weeks in September so I'm busy getting excited about that. I haven't done much of this international jetsetting malarkey before so perhaps it'll give me the bug for distant lands. Hope you're having fun, really have no doubt of that, I have an abiding memory of every carni at the Glastonbury funfair giving you the eye when I was in the third year, you working it and me thinking there's a girl who knows how to get what she wants. No doubt those Indians/Thais/Peruvians aren't immune to your charms. Lots of love Tara x

Annie,

It is strange that you have managed to fool all of these people into thinking that you are in exotic places when you have actually spent the last 6 weeks in your room in Thatcham. Amazing what a few pictures of cows and donkeys can do !

hey annie,

you look so much better in those pics of hong kong! proper healthy again which is good to see! hope your still having fun, i'm just on a break from work so thought i'd say hi! missed you at jen's birthday on sat-had a wicked night, although i havnt been that hammered in ages! no hong kong all nighter i'm sure but hannah n ross got a bit excited on casey's trampoline which was bloody funny-no injuries either i dont think!!
not much else goin on really, enjoy yor next stage mate n keep us informed!
loads of love, fox x x x x x
