Your having such an amazing adventure out there...I want to come too!! :D All of us guys are stuck inside revising all day, and the weather for once has been generally nice, despite the few rainy days here, so haven't had much time for fun! What's the exact date you come back? Can't wait to see you again mate and catch up on your time in SA! Best wishes, Veej and all of us guys from school :)

Lisa hi Tom I have really enjoyed reading your blog. The plans you have for your teaching sound great and will really benefit the kids. I am so glad it is all falling into place. Great idea to get the tennis court sorted both for you and the kids. We have enjoyed looking at your photos on face book, looks like you had a fab holiday. Brilliant that it is all going so well. Fantastic result for the Wolves yesterday, it could be the start of the great escape! We all send our love. Lisa, Pete, Jack and Charlie

Nana Nana I just spent a happy time catching up with your blog - I love it - you write as if you are talking to us and I have a real feel for what you are doing / thinking/ iimbibing! Dizzie is one manifestation of a hangover so check it out with medic if it happens when you haven't been drinking?!I am confident you will be"sensible" now hols are over. It is special and great that you want to make a mark at the school - kids will love you soorting out the court. The sort of work ivolved will be easier now it is cooler? I think it is brill that you care about the childrfen enough to be concerned that they are learning. Sounds like an excellent plan to work with Megan and to gain experience in your piano teaching, Are you picking up any african/ Your hol sounds wonderful,especially swimming in really warm sea. I look forward to hearing more about Passion Play and seeing pics.. Ollie and I are off to Molineaux to watch Baggies and Wolves tomorrow 12-00. Very stressful! Love you very much x
