Hey!!! You know what youre gonna call him, am so excited for you. You get a place sorted to live? when u finishing work? Hope you ok and hadf a good new year xxx

Hi, Daringdo and Tinkerbell. Hope you have a nice van now and all problems sorted. You have had mixed adventures, haven't you? At least we all know you are both good at sorting out problems!! Linda and Peter send their love. They were watching the Australian New Year's Eve fireworks when they were on the telly and Linda says they were thinking about you being there and how fabulous it must have been for you. They are so glad you made it. I have typed up all your blogs and will be taking a copy for them to read. They keep talking about getting a laptop but Linda says she doubts they will actually get round to it. They may come here to look at the photos. I managed to install the new printer without ending up in a jibbering heap on the floor. It has worked for me so fingers crossed I might one day be able to print out proper photos and copy things!! Have bathed Clipper today, am going to bath him at home next week then take him to Sue and she will dry clip him. Less stress for his little heart. Still mught give him a tablet before he goes to be clipped though. I am hoping to get the car fixed in the not too distant future, so may be able to set off on cold days without, blankets, heatpads etc. Did get a converter thing and another heater but the engine is too small and wouldn't run the car and two heaters as well. Roll on summer, lets get past the 27th January, if it's going to snow we know it will be about then don't we David? Looking forward to your next blog and pics. Lots of love, hugs as usual please.xx

Hello again and yes have got a brand sapnking van now so all happy again. Def getting good with adventure problem solving! Linda was right to think it was spectacular here because as you know it was.! Text you since about clips so up to press good tablets are helping and he will soon be a puff ball!! Hope the car turns out ok as it was gonna be a big job as I remember, didnt know you were typing blogs up for people to read!?! Best make sure they dont get dull!!??? HA HA No Chance. x x

Hi, David and Carina, Happy New Year to you both, George is in bed now, he has been to the pub to watch the football. He hasn't been out on a wednesday night, he has a few cans in the house instead, so I am having no peace, cos I have to put up with him. The sooner you get back the better!!! George says thanks for text. I, Cindy, sent you a text, hope you got it, cos George can't cope with his fone as you know!! Your mum says he is worse than she is with the fone. I can send texts now.!! Took George to Wales last weekend, we had a free bar for one hour and George only had two pints in there cos it was lousy lager, but I made up for him with Vodka and lemonades. George bought another pair of new shoes whilst we were there, this is two pairs in just over two months. A miracle for George. We are going to Benidorm in February for a week so hopefully will get some sun and I will get some shopping done. Yipee. George will be suffering!! Your photos are brilliant but I am still waiting for you to send me some sun. Love from George and Cindy.xxx

George and buying something!! Thats unheard of! Sure you will both have enjoyed the trip though. Not sure which one of you will be missing me the most then but sounds like you at minute as George is under your feet on Wednesdays!!!! Ha ha.

Yes we got your text thanks, hope you had a good xmas and new years, no doubt little trouble was there for some of it. Hope to call for a quick chat soon. x x

Hi Daringdo, and tinkerbell, Well, what a fabulously descriptive blog that was!!! You brought it all to life, I could see it happening. Happy New Year my loves, what a fabulous start. Didn't that bridge look beautiful, in daylight, at sunset, in the middle of the fireworks. What mega wow factor fireworks. Such a special achievement for you both. i can't tell you how utterly thrilled I am for you both. I enjoyed your New Year's Eve very much. I agree with Heather the missed calls help a great deal, you know what us mums are like. The system you set up for me David seems to have suffered fatally but I have managed to get on to the site this time. Lotsaluv to you both, look forward to your next blog and geography lesson. Hugs as usual. Take good care of one another.xx

Hiya,

Happy New Year, looks like you had a fab time.

I haven't sent the voucher off yet as I am waiting for December's vouchers to send them all off together. When I send it I'll address it to your Mum. Tom (cod) is looking at houses in Roundhay at the moment. He's looking forward to moving to Leeds.
