hey you Hey Jo!
It's nice to hear from you. It does make me feel a lot better that there are thunder storms in Wales - i would not be happy if you were actually having good weather (for once). Dont worry we are being sensible and taking care of our stuff. The sea Kayaking was amazing, and i loved seeing, riding, feeding the elephants but i didnt like the way they were kept chained up.
Oh no sarah doesnt have one but you can email her.
Hope all is well with you. Stay in touch
Love Debbie
Canoe Hiya Debbie - did you survive the rapids? The Elephants? How was it? It was excellent to see your pics - that food looked 'interesting' - post up some more! It's wet and grim in the uk, you chose a good time to be in a hot place. Hope the prickles go soon!

Lia Hey you,
I was wondering when i was going to get a message from you! No the prickly heat tablets are not working!! I think Sarah is feeling a lot better now though. You are going to love Asia when you come out but you have to learn to be very firm because everyone tries to con you out here! You say you want to go to one place and they take you somewhere else and try to charge you for it! I dont think so! Katie is very good at pushing the price down when we go shopping.
I dont know if she has heard the score because I havent - how are Wales doing?
Dont forget to let me know your flight details for Australia.
Love Debbie x
OMG how slow am i! and this has two meanings! Mate, it has taken me since monday (it is now saturday) to figure out how to leave a message on here - how dumb am i! Hey girlies and boy! sounds like you are having a wikid time! its makin me so excited about tripping to asia - the 8 months can't go quick enough! glad to see you are managing to shop and drink beer! hope sarah is feeling much better now and the stoopid chest infection has gone away! things here are far less exotic as you can imagine. we have been experiencing A LOT of rain. i have managed to go out drinking about once in the past month and ended up wasted and singing kareoke WITHOUT MUSIC! i cant wait to go back to work on mon and be riddiculed!
keep posting pics giffo (how did we not giv you that name in the house?!) cos its fun to see your lil red face! hehe! i'm guessin the prickly heat tablets aren't working! I imagine sarah has been informed of the scores of the wales france match.. it is on as i type, and wales are currently winning. ireland beat the hell out of england earlier, of course i was supporting the winning team as always! there is nothin nu from here to report... i got my visa the other day, need to get all my goods together for the off but apart from that (oh, and the small need to get 5more ppl into work this month so i don't loose my job!) i am ready and raring to go!
Well guys, i look forward to reading more news stories, and your hotel looks mint! On the beach!
Laters peeps,
Lia x x x x x x
I saw sally How cool is that?! and sand that actually burns in January - wow. I know where I'd rather be. I'm also going to a 'krabi' place on the 26th Feb, though mine is a little less exotic - I'm off to spend the day at a prison with work - nice! We're looking forward to seeing the pics, Debbie! Take care. Lots of love, SPAEL XXXXX
America Hey Jo,
You must be getting really excited about flying off to America in 2 days!!! to see your man! I hope you have a lovely time and I expect messages letting me know what your up to.
Have fun stuff
Love Debbie
oriental city Hi Simon,
Yes all the stories about Khao San Road are pretty much true although we didnt see any lady boys unless we just didnt realise thats what they were. Ye Ko Samui is where the beach was filmed. It is much calmer here than Bangkok thats for sure and we have a pool here which is lush to jump into in this heat!
Love to all the family
Debbie x
Funny Claire Hey you,
Its good to hear from you and I hope all your uni stuff is going well.
Well we had planned to stay in not so nice places but then because it is chinese new year it is so busy here we have ended up having to fork out a bit more cash, so the place we are staying in at the moment in Ko Samui is nice enough and clean and it has a swimming pool and it is right on the beach - so it is pretty good. Nice and relaxing after hectic Bangkok.
Oh and my next concert date is July 25th so get tickets quick! - cheeky mare!
Good luck with your dissertation
Love Debbie
Are you right, there Debbie Gifford Debbieeeee (and also sarah obviously). I have been so busy of late with uni (I hate dissertation, waaaa), so sorry I've taken my time about giving you my undying support for you starting your travels, the flame of love for you grows stringer every day. Well done on getting going. But I'm with Aled, SHOPPING already, shouldn't you be rambo'ing it around swamps or something capturing exotic bugs to smuggle back into Britain?! Can't believe you guys are out there right now, I am so jealous. A couple of questions tho, firstly, whats you accomodation like, jacuzzi, spa type deal I take it, honeymoon suite maybe? and also, Debs where is your next tour date?! do you plan on playing 'tea for two' I think that should be you opening number!
Lots of love
Claire
