Acapulco Mexico
Dear JIAGGJ
We are in an internet cafe in Acapulco & Grandi is "having a go!"
It is very very hot & we hear it is very stormy & cold at home. We think of you all when we are on the ship lying in the shade in a deckchair reading with a warm breeze blowing over us but we are not coming back until England has warmed up!
This morning we went to the house where "Tarzan" stayed when they were making the 1st film many years ago, I believe Cheetah stayed there too!
Then we went to a fort guarding Acapulco , it was scorching inside so when it was used many years ago it must have been dreadful for the soldiers.
Hope Georgie is enjoying trampoling with Minnie & I think Jenni will be very good at netball. Hope Jack is now 1oo% with the goats milk. Issy- I am going to try and get your web site next. On the ship it is too expensive & very slow to do more than look at the Blog so I don,t know your news. It would be great if you could give your news on the blog instead.
Here it is very cheap to use the internet so it has been along one.
Love you all, and so does Grandad,
Hugs & xxxxxxxxx
Grandi
I hope the rest of you have been reading the comments. I have found that the quickest way is to put the blog on for the children and view it which brings my site up. Then I read your lovely news and answer in the 1st comment.

It's not cold here - just very very windy!
Done a couple of days work this week, will have to slow down the pace is telling. Poker tonight and Ab's tomorrow, panto rehearsals Sunday (oh no it isn't etc) then relax on Monday.
Glad it's all going well. Didn't really understand your explanation of what you do with the blog but I don't really need to!
Love
Duncan

Sat: Georgie and Jack have just charted your progress so far on the map with their stickers (Jenni has gone to horseriding with Rob) awaiting Dunc's arrival.
Georgie now says: Thank you for the presents and the things that you gave us and I'm going to go to Hannah's party and I'm doing instruments now with Daddy's harmonica (Mummy thinks that's what it's called. I made a dinosaur at school and Minnie and Hannah came to play after school the day before today. LOve from Goergie XXXX

We are all following your program on the map. You haven’t got very far yet. Lots of bottoms & bits hanging out – you could have stayed in Catesby Croft! Have been going to the house on Sunday nights to pick up mail and papers so I will check if Les has been. No sign last week of anyone but me going in.
Fantastic day at Whittlebury with LB girls. They persuaded me to have a colonic irrigation. Never again!!! Lisa who carried out the procedure said in 14 years she’d never seen anything like it. Also tried reflexology – someone grappling with my feet for an hour. I’m surprised she didn’t ask for danger money. Lovely buffet as usual & great to get the old dressing gown on.
Very busy week as Don had travelling nightmares getting out of London. We had the worst gales for 17 years.
Isabella has been up at the MK theatre rehearsing for Zambisi tales. She will be on stage with the choir. She looked tiny up there but very excited. People coming from schools across the country to watch.
Mother Goose was great. Jo came and we went to Pam’s house. It’s a beautiful house. Alex was the wrong person to sit on my lap when they came out with water pistols asking who wants to get shot!! Jenni and Issy were thrilled as they sang some songs from High School Musical.
Love Becky,

House ok, letter from Powergen, no longer doing telephone, have to call in January otherwise automatically transfered to Pipex who is taking over the telephone service from them. Do you want to let it go to them and change it again when you get back or do you just want me to cancel it and do without phone line until you get home? Les hasn't been shall I chase him up?

Hi Mum & Dad
Had another busy weekend. Dunc came up yesterday and had the excitement of coming to Robynne's Pool Party at the Splash with us - not quite the Saturday Night he'd expected. He stayed for a takeaway and made me miss the next gripping Installment of BIG BROTHER as he said he'd leave the room if I put it on (For someone who doesn't watch tele he seemed to know alot about it!).
Today Lucy, Pete and Josh have been - My Rice Pud was much admired don't know why I didn't do it years ago - you obviously made it look difficult! Took them to Worcester Country Park and the kids found the one big muddle puddle in the middle of the playing field so all came home in their pants.
Just having a break from clearing up the debris. Lots of love to you both Abi XXX

Mon am - Disaster - sent Jen to school with wrong swim bag so no goggles & pants. Got back from delivering to swim pool & put note through Hazel's door but put my hand through to throw note over the kids boots & got my hand stuck - could have been embarassing! All O.K. Now... AbiXX

Hi M and D
Can you believe it's 3 weeks since I dropped you off! Time really is flying.
Can't get your web address to work, never mind I'm sure I'll see plenty of photo's when you return.
Rushing around as usual, off to help someone learn lines this afternoon prior to another rehearsal.
Love
Dx
