Just finished looking through the photo's - it all looks wonderful. My favourite has to be Dan with the ugliest dog in the world! I think you should get one when you get your pub - that'll frighten off any riff-raff! You'll be pleased to note that Jake was particularly excited to see pictures of you (although it has only been one month - it seems longer).

Jamie says he'll have one night of photo's - then that's it! No slide shows!

Speak soon. C.x

Just spent a few (!) hours looking at the photos! You've got some great shots and it was so nice to see both of you looking relaxed and happy. (Though Dan looked a bit worried by the dogs ...) Loved the insects ready for the barbie! Did you try the starfish? Or snake?

Lots of love to you both

Mum and Dad

p.s. Libby gave up on the whole crawling thing - she doesn't like it. She is almost cruising but doesn't have any strength or balance. I think she's waiting for you guys to visit before she learns to walk!

Hello!

Happy New Year!! Hope you're enjoying the celebrations - it must be fantastic over there at this time of year. Mind the fire crackers you lucky rats!

I'm having loads of fun here as Ben is really ill (again!). He's got an infection in both ears, a cold and a horrible headache. He's a typical Maibaum male and does not do 'being ill' very well. Currently he is asleep snoring like a freight train. I hope he's better soon!!

Tom promises me you'll be able to upload some photos in Macau. Can't wait.

love to you both,

Elaine

But anyway, glad you're having such a lovely time. Wish we were there with you. Missing you loads and can't wait for NYC!!

I'm jealous ...

You might recall, Shu, that when we were at the wall last, you could hardly see your nose in front of your face, let alone somebody else's! We have had, on the other hand, lots of snow to shovel, at least I did as your mum/Jan is away being a hooker this weekend ...

And remember, you have to climb the hill behind central to get the view. There is no public transport up there ...

love dad/tom XXXXXXXXX
