hey its me again, i'm loving the fact i can now get on line whenever-the excitment. loved seeing the new pics actually at work at mo-were that busy that i've managed to look through all the photos. glad to see you celebrated the new year in the proper fashion-didn't get to see one of zak the day after or was her virtuously fine? still cold and wet here and think its snowing still in other parts of the country-i aviod it here thou being by sea-just get blown away. starting back at uni on monday-really not loking forward to that means i actually have to start getting ready for exams. oh and xander is actually coming down to visit me next weekend-at least i get to show one of my brothers off-he he hope he has a good time thou!?! ah well boss back now better start pretending to work again.
love

Hi Zak and Mel, happy new year to you both, its great to see the photos of you both taking it so easy and enjoying typical British weather. Sorry i havnt left a message previously but ive been busy with loads of work leading up to the christmas period and my studies have also been a bit hectic but my final exam was today and not to soon either. Hows the promised health kick going, beer out vegetarianism in or the other way round, and what about any biking have you had the chance to check out any of the downhill action? Now the studies are almost over im getting the RM sorted out ready for the dry(joke) weather over at leaf mountain. Take it as easy guys and keep the pics coming especially the ones of Zaks impressions of manimal. Bignuts

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Thanks for my text zak, i loved recieving it, i miss you loads, but i dont wish you were here, since its so obviouosly better where you are! You both look really healthy and happy, i wonderedif you would get fat, but doesnt look like thats gonna happen. all the photos are wicked, its reall ynice being able to see other things in the middle of the day, im sure you know its a bit pony here. i failed another driving test!!! i really thought i had passed, so it was a little surprising..the quest continues, it i am not driving by the time you come back, well, you cant come back and thats that. I am working ina restaurant at the moment, think i might be able to start college this month, and its cool. i appear to be a natural waiter and am earning a lot ot tips which should help all the money side of things, belen moves here in march, is time passing fast or what? when actually, can we expect to see your smiling sunkissed faces upon these shores? also, i am up to page 140 in my book and still have 30 pages of notes to do so thats cool, love to youy both, dinner going cold, ant!

Happy New Year Zak and Mel,
We had a fantastic holiday with Guy in Cape Town and Knysna, lots of sunshine and good wine and met up with some old friends too then back home for New Year's Eve at White House Farm with Chris, Zal and Anna. Lots of fizz and poker till midnight. Really good fun. Granny Jane returned to Gooserye from France yesterday having missed the really cold weather fortunately.
So enjoyed catching up on all your adventures and seeing your New Zealand photos it looks beautiful and must be so special for you to meet your New Zealand family. Enjoy the rest of your travels.
Lots of love,
Lulu

Hi Mel and Zak, Mum here at Mark & Jaime's getting ready to go out for New Year's Eve (Floridita) sending a message now as don't think I will get through to you overnight. Rang Linda and Pete's number and understand you have gone off somewhere 'where all the young people hang out' and will be back in a week. Passed the details to Claire and Charles including the mobile number you gave me. Left message wishing you happy new year (is that Kate's phone). Mark has passed on numbers to your Dad but suggested he does not call them until he hears from you as we're not sure where you are. Anyway all the best have a lovely New Year. Hope to speak to you over the week-end. Back from London first thing Tuesday a.m. as back at work so if you can ring Mark you will get to speak to me there. Lots of love from all of us here in Battersea, London, UK - Mum, Mark, Jaime and Debs (Jaime's Mum) XXXXXXXXXXXXX.

hey guys,
just finally got a chance to look at all the photos (stupid computer) made me very jelous-think u should just come home now before die of jelousy. places look amazing but if you could go somewhere cold next that might make me feel a little bit better! been bit hectic here in lead upto christmas suddenly lots of drinking required-oh well made fool outta myself lots but its expected isn't it especially at work xmas do. missing you guys lots and lots whether i would usually see you or not. just back at home for a few days over christmas(so people say anway-doesn't feel much like christmas to me) so sorry if after this its a long time before another message(think mum said bout the laptop) been getting reports thou. glad meeting your mum and bro and sister was alright and mum said about katie coming over here sometime next year-she should come down to brighton if i'm still there (with the whole placement thing and all) there would always be a floor if not a bed. not been upto much in comparison to you two went to go see pendulum last week that was really really good (apparantly they were over there in either in oz or nz can't remember which. and cooked a christmas dinner couple of weeks ago how impressive is that there were TENof us in the end. thats about all the excitment i've had-just got things that are even more exciting coming up like couple of exams end of january and coursework due in. keep on having a wicked time and mel hit zak if he does that thing with the torch again.
'Be excellent to each other' (from bill and ted obviously) and hope you had a great chrismas, sorry didn't get a chance to have a chat with you-was really looking forward to it(give us the right number next time.
all my love
Charlie xxxxx
