Hi Blondie, Grandma is in your house wrecking Michelle's bedroom and you might even get your bed back if you are really lucky!
Grandad has gone to London with the Ferndown Art Society today so I am playing taxi. Very strange here without you and Michelle is convinced that she does not want to be an "only child". Glad that you are enjoying yourself, we have even got sun today but bet yours is better. Will chat again another day but must get back to work or I shall get the sack, "I wish". Lots of love Grandma and Grandad

Hiya Smurf,
Boring day today, more rain. I have been looking at hot sunny places for us to visit next week. Only one more week at school, then four whole weeks off. More work done on Michelle's room, should be finished by the time you get back. Hope you have enjoyed the diving i know you were unsure about this part of the break before you went. BIG HUG from us all.xxx
Thoughts of you have just popped into my head. So i thought i would stop what i was doing and leave you a note. I can't believe a week has gone by already. I wonder if it has gone fast or slow for you.
I also wonder what you miss most about England, goes without saying us,and Liv.
Right must get back to Michelle's room. Lots of dust from rubbing down paint work. LOV U Mum xxxxxxxxx

Hi Will
When we ask Sol where you are he says "gonna Kenya" so I guess that is where you are at last. I think the "laid back life" will probably suit you very well, but remember to look after yourself, I am keeping great gran up with your travels. We look forward to hearing soon. Send us some sun will you please,
Love Grandma and Grandad
Hi Meg

Hello Babe

Can't wait to hear from you again. The last two weeks have gone so slowly. perhaps the next two will go faster. miss you loads everyone sends their love.
it's me again, schools out so went into BOURNEMOUTH clubbing, yes omg
Michelle wasn't happy,lol. Dad was taxi. About fifty staff went it was a good night. Well four weeks to chill now. Went and saw G and Gdad, Bexs and Tom. He is so cute. Chats away all the time now. He has changed so much in the last six weeks. He keeps asking for Michelle he calls Mich Mich.
Gandma said no to him when he wanted to bring muddy shoes through the house, he cried and we all laughed because it was so put on. must go now shower and change i know to much information . Lovage Mum.
730 back at home been all around the med on a cruise ship. Nice to see some sun. Went ashore to see lots of different places. Had a grand suite very different from your break. Isn't the world a strange place. Can't wait to see you only a week to go lov you mum
Hi Sami, dad here. Back from short hols now and trying to settle back in. Michelle was REALLY lost without you around but we eventually "persuaded" her to start mixing with others - and she then got in the groove! Missing you loads and cant wait to see you next week. Mums desperate to hear from you on FB so if you can drag yourself away from whatever you are doing this week, get them teachers to allow you some online time! Only 7 days to go so savour every last minute! Luv ya Dad
