India Again.......How did we guess - From: Guess where we are?!
Hi both of you, wow the pictures are amazing. The scenery is out of this world (are you sure you dont want to be in India in November). It must have something special as it keeps pulling you both back and you both look so happy there. Nice to see the locals making use of the facilities, can't imagine Hircocks pulling the busses into the Well Creak for a quick wash (although it would be quite a sight). Love the purple top Helen (l want one) the colour really suits you. Not a lot to report here, your mums looking forward to talking to you tomorrow. The Austrailia fund is now up to approx £30 we are praying for a heatwave on Sunday as we are now selling tip top drinks (that have been frozen) (solid) no not for 10p as the recommended retail price suggests but a one off special offer of 25p each (and the silly buggers are paying it) Stop laughing.................your mum cant get any food in her freezer now as its full to the brim with tip top drinks in the process of being frozen................dont know why the ice cream man dos'nt like us............l mean his cheapest lolly is only 80p and his cold cans of drink are only £1. You know me and your mum have changed our surnames now to the Trotters (only fools and horses fame). Dont worry though, l'm sure there will be many more wacky ideas flowing as the weeks go on. Well we better crack on now, you both take care and have a good flight out of India next week. Love to you both Auntie Sue and Mum xxxxxxxx:P

Heaven, you're in heaven - From: Guess where we are?!
What a place!! You are clearly having a magnificent time, if you are wondering what the view is like form my office - don't it is grey and chucking it down and very miserable. Miss you loads and you are in my thoughts every day - take care of yourselves girls. P.s - we have found a couple to rent our house so we may be upping sticks and moving down to Wales very soon. A much needed new begining. Just like the meaning of life poster in your pictures says i am on the quest for something more useful to the world that leaves me feeling fulfilled. x Take it easy x

Sober At Last!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - From: Thailand blog no 2
Hi both of you, the Hilton looked good pleased you both got to enjoy the amenities there (must have been share luxury for you both). The Asda tops look very nice. Dont forget to let us know where you will be in November so we can get the flights booked well in advance. I mean if you really can't pull yourselves away from India that's really not a prob (our finances could cope with that much better) but then again we dont care where we meet up with you, it will just be nice to see you both. And as me and your mum are heading for 40 plus 10 = 26 this year it's time we both discovered the joys of packpacking, we dont mind where we doss down for the night, the experience will do us good. We have decided to travel really light so if there is anything you both need we will have enough luggage allowance to bring stuff over. Well we better go now, you both take care and carry on enjoying yourselves. Happy travelling lots of love Auntie Sue and Mum :D xxx PS Do you realise how many bloody sausage rolls and cakes me and your mum have got to bake over the six weeks holidays to meet up with you (answer approx 8000) mind you it gets easier when you do corn flake and rice crispie cakes) (and no we won't be bring any over) :P

woooh - From: 1st 12 days in Thailand
Hi both of you, nice to catch up with your latest blog. You both look like your still enjoying yourselves and you've both lost a bit of weight. You mum thinks that you've lost your dress sense Helen (fancy going to the caves in your pyjamas (that came from your mum not me) You used to laught at your mum when she had her colour cordonated gear on for play group. PS the spelling not good tonight me and your mum sat outside and had supper al fresco (nice weather for a change) and had a bottle of wine and got rat arsed. Your mum is well chuffed to have spoken to you today. Theres every possibily that l may be able to put both your feet right by the time you hit New Zealand, itsw only a possability but me and your mum are toying with the idea of popping over to say hi while your there. Gotta go a mo sausage rolls ready to come out of oven. Back now they need a few more minutyes., We are both off to Ingoldisthorpe in the morning, doing a car boot, and you've guessed it , im selling cakes. We both gonna treat ourselves to fish and chips on the prom after the boot has packed up. (Gosh what an exciting life we lead) The Village is sealed off at nthe mo, the Irish gypsys have taken over a local field to hold a horse fair, the police pressence is amazing didnt realise we had so many cop cars in the district, and the no parking cones have taken over the neighbourhood. Hang on ..............sausage rolls Ok there done, next lots in. Right where did we get to...........okay well there not a lot else to report at the mo, so love to you both enjoy yourselves, and behave yourselves when you get to the Hilton, no pinching of Ashtrays, salt or pepper pots etc etc..........me and your mum got there before you. Well take care, lots of love, auntie Sue and Mum xxxx:)

Hi There - From: Blo no 9 - Manali - Himalayas
Hi both of you, nice to read the latest blog, sounds like you are both still having fun, even though the temperatures changed. So Helens finding out there are as many nutters travelling on the buses as there are in Derby!!!! Hope the monk had a big jam jar or the next question would be 'where was he getting rid of it?' And did'nt the woman know it's rude to stare!! Helen you seem to be a magnet for any nutter in a 10 k radious,ever thought about changing your perfume. Me and your mum have had a very very busy day today, cleaning, meet for cuppa in the summer house, lunch, cleaning, meet for a cuppa in the summer house, cleaning, meet for a cuppa again in the summer house, tea, telly, then meet up for a cuppa and blog viewing at mine. (what an eventful life we lead!!!!!!) (beats traveling, sight seeing and crazy people (((NOT))). Anyway we better go now, kettles just boiled. You both take care and we look forward to your next blog, hopefully with some more pics (we like pics). Take care, lots and lots of love, and Happy Easter (we were going to send you both an egg but thought they would smash or melt, so we had to eat them, but just so as you would know they were very tasty. Dont forget your mums sent you a parcel to pick up when you get back to Delhi. (Parcel each that is). So one again take care and lots and lots of love, Auntie Sue and Mum xxx

Hello there - From: Kerala
hi girls - just a quickie to let you know the pics are awesome and we miss you dearly. The Kareoke party was funny, you would of loved it. the pub was delapedated with a leaking roof, peeling wallpaper, flat coke and beer that tasted of cardboard. We had a wicked time! The DJ was almost service user specail levels, he only had one song book that went from A-L and that was it (between about thirty people)- no Marriah for the girls or Oasis for the boys. Macca haggled him down at the end of the night and only gave him half the money. Me and Michael went to sing an Elton John song and Haddaway "what is love" came on? Lex is convinced he couldn't read. We all said you guys would have loved it. You pair love like you've lost a bit of weight on the old bombay diet! I'm telling you when we reunite in Jan we'll look like the cast of beverly hills 90210. Be careful on them bikes - them indians don't care for road etiquite and your lack of helmet is a concern. Loads of love Stu xx

Wow - From: Kerala
Hi both of you. Happy belated birthday Laura, glad you enjoyed it. The sea looked very inviting and beautiful scenery from the house boat. (and from the towels). Well it's all been quite here (probably cause l've been away all week!! and your mum always behaves herself when l'm not here!!!!!! well thats what she tells me. Have all your bites now gone the photos didnt make you look too spotty. Both of you have well caught the sun though and the healthy diet of alcohol and indian cuisine seems to be having no ill effects. Well take care both of you and we look forward to the next blog and its lovely to see pictures. Love you lots Auntie Sue (Sorry Suzanne Young MCFHP MAFHP ..... yes l passed) and Mum xxxx

Hiya both of you. It was lovely to catch up with you eventually (your mum just said) even if you had to stay up till after midnight. Smarty pants here has passed the first week of her practical training with flying colours (top of the class apparently), one more week to go and l will be fully qualified. Sounds like your still having a brilliant time (hope you took a photo of the rubbish tip) (that'll be one to remember and to tell your grandchildren). Did you get a lot of bites or was it just like joining the dots? Not a lot been happening here (will have to liven Upwell up and have a mega party soon cause Hazel next door really needs something to moan about as l hav'nt been here all last week) (I mean she is sooooooo desperate to winge about something, your mums got to find a stray bramble that has apparently been sunbathing in her garden (and of cause it had not been given permission to do so)). Anyway guys you take care and we look forward to your next blog. lol Auntie Sue and Mum xxx

Hi - From: Blog No 5 Kolkatta
Hiya, pleased to read the latest travel blog, you both sound as if you are having the time of your lives. Helens mailing arrived safe and sound and still intact today. Your mum was amazed to see it all sown up, that was different, took her nearly an hour to get into it. No snow here now, its all gone. In fact its just like spring, snowdrops everywhere (what a bummer, l absolutely detest them). When we gonna see some more photos. Pop into McDonalds sometime, me and your mum want to know if they do the free toy with the happy meal over there. And is the menu still the same or do they have curry burgers. Well anyway you both take care and we look forward to seeing some more pics and hearing of your next train journey. The sea will seem like a total luxury when you get there. Lot of love Auntie Sue and Mum xxx

Hi both of you, hope you are both keeping well, see you've both caught the sun. The photos are beautiful, the Taj looks magnificent. Woul'nd have fancied doing our washing in the Gangies (the Persil would'nt have larthered). Fancy washing your face Helen in water that proberbly had more dead bodies in than Upwell cemetary and who knows how many people had a pee in it that morning. You were very brave. We are both well and looking forward to your next blog. Take care both of you. Lots of Love Auntie Sue & Mum

Helen your mum bought you up to knock before you enter a building so serves you right (hope you took a photo). And Laura well would'nt you go for a total stranger if they caught you at it (interupting their privacy, how could you). Anyway glad your both enjoying yourselves and keeping well. By the way did you ever get Delihi belly (probably spelt it wrong). Its good its so cheap out there at least your money will go further. Are the trains still as crowded as ever, well at least yours are still running (a few flakes of snow and Britain has ground to a halt). Well we had better love and leave you.

Our Day - From: First couple of days in Delhi
Hi Guys we (Macca and Hannah) were very excited to hear what you have been up to and thought that we (macca and hannah) would take this opportunity to tell you (laura and helen) what we (macca and hannah) have been up to today! We (Macca and Hannah) think it is far more exciting than yours! I (Macca) have been at work. I (Macca) have had an interview. I (Macca) came home from work at approx 5.35pm. I (Macca) then had some dinner. I (Macca) then waited for Dirty Watford to come around so that we (Macca and Hannah) could watch Waterloo Road (taped from last night) and Hustle (on at 9.00pm sharp!). I (hannah) woke up at 7.00am, but didn't get up until 8.00am! I (hannah) have not done anything interesting at work today, which you (laura and helen) might think is interesting! I (hannah) then went home, got into my pajamas and boots and went to Maccas house to watch the tele. We (Macca and Hannah) have taken 10 minutes away from our tv watching extravaganza to send you this e mail to let you (laura and helen) know how much you (laura and helen) are missing out on! Ok, there are no cows where we (Macca and Hannah) are but we (macca and hannah) did almost see a giraffe earlier. Unfortunately we (macca and hannah) made a mistake and it actually turned out to be a man with a really long neck! We (macca and Hannah) were still excited by this and thought it would be worth telling you (Laura and helen)! We (Macca and Hannah) have not had any birds crap on us (macca and hannah) today, however we (macca and hannah) have both (macca and hannah) had a crap ourselves, although not on each other (macca and hannah) as that would be weird! We (macca and hannah) love you both (laura and helen) and can't wait read the next installment on the blog! xxx

Hi both of you, pleased you both arrived safely and not too jet lagged. You know it's lucky to have a bird poo on you so it could be an omen of an unbelievable trip ahead. Don't forget to take loads and loads of pics as we all want to see where you've been (plus it's proof that the two of you hav'nt just been hiding out in Blackpool!). We did forget to mention to watch for the cows, they have priority like the cyclists and trams do in Amsterdam!!!!!!!! Thinking of you both, take care and enjoy the Taj Mahal. Catch up soon Lots of Love Mum and Auntie Sue (from the pits of the fens).
