Hello from a very muddy campsite in india. I am fine having a lot of fun and sculpting the guns after digging 5 foundtations and moving tonnes of rock. Hope you are all well in cold England. Lots of love Aimee. P.s. What's the traffic cop gossip?!

ReplyDeleteGlad you are enjoying it Ry and it certainly sounds as if you have all been busy. We are looking forward to seeing the houses when they are finished. We are pleased to hear that the locals are friendly and we're sure that the football skills will come in handy for them!!!
We have had a frost here for the last two nights so you are not missing anything with the weather you'll wonder what's hit you when you come home.
Everyone is fine here so carry on having a good time and look after yourself
Love Nana & Grandad xxxxx

Tessie! Hoe is het daar, willen alle locals alleen maar aan je blonde haren zitten de hele tijd of valt het mee en zijn ze wel vrijwilligers gewend in hun dorp? Je bent nu huizen aan het bouwen toch? Hilarisch?! Maak veel foto's want ik ben erg benieuwd naar het eindresultaat. . . . . ;)En leuke mensen in je groep?? Hier is alles ok, beetje filmpjes pakken, biertjes drinken, hockeyen --> zelfde als aaaaltijd! Dus geniet daar petite en ik ga je schrijven. Geen idee of ik het nu goed doe of niet, maar dat merk ik vanzelf wel, houdoeeee xxxx je zus
ReplyDeleteHi Ryan not sure if my last message got through so thought I would tell you again that we are still top of the league!!! after winning Shrewsbury 4 3 last Saturday. Even the football league show did a special piece on us! It was great to hear what you have been upto out there I bet you are especially enjoying a game of footy with the kids. Keep up the good work, lots of love from mum,dad,Craig and Jordan xxx

ReplyDeleteDear Aimee
Good to hear from you. Waiting to see some photos of the lean mean building machine you must have turned in to!! Perhaps we'll hire you for the kitchen extension next year!
Max is struggling with his first essay,he's analysing the Jeremy Kyle Show in the prescribed academic manner. Guy has found a new bike and will be collecting it on Saturday - that only leaves him with 2 to sell. Pippa is on half-term. So pleased that these days I don't have to entertain anyone for the week. Daddy and I had a jaunt with 'The Scott's ' on Sunday to see the paintings of Stanley Spencer on Cookham (Berkshire). It was a cold day but blue skies and we had a walk by the river. Today its heavy rain and cold - typical October day.
Traffic Cops won't be on until later in the week, but will let you know the gossip!!! Poppy enjoying getting wet and muddy, and Ginger the luxury of sleeping on your bed........
Love as always Admin 1, Daddy, Max, Guy, Pippa, Poppy and Ginger xxxxxxx
PS Is any snail mail arriving?
To Rosie W(Charlie One)
