We are quite knackered now, but we did have a very nice Ecuadorian lunch (chicken, sauce, beans, and rice). During lunch we had a number of creative people constructing interesting items from the restaurant napkins, this included Charlottes creative underwear, though we understand that she will not be wearing it during the trip.
Olivia Rhiannon says thanks for remembering me! Xxx
Unloved people today are Catherine neddyn, Jo Tilly louise matt James - so families how about some comment love! ( some of you have been dishing up quite a lot of love already)
Ok, so tomorrow we head to Caimito on the north west coast. This is where our community project is. There is no cell phone signal there unfortunatley so we suspect that there will be no blogging either 8-(
If we do get a chance to update here we will, but don't panic if you don't hear from us for a couple of weeks due to this.
Rest assured there will likely be a torrent of updates as soon as we are back in coverage. This also applies to you commenting types - your comments won't appear until we can get to them .
Meanwhile enjoy the nice UK weather, it was quite cool here today and it thundered again.
To Charlotte
ReplyDeleteMartine will be very pleased to see that her creative bra has gone all the way to Ecuador!
Terrible news to know that you will have no signal for a while! It is Charlotte's birthday on Saturday! we were hoping to send her a message on that day.So may be we should do it now, you never know. So Charlotte Happy birthday
We will be thinking of you and missing you on that memorable day. I am sure you will have a great time. Be good! Lots of love.

ReplyDeleteMandy P
Hey babe, I was watching big brother and they are doing a ‘come dine with me’ they even had the voice over guy from ‘come dine with me’ doing the commentary. The new housemates were taken part in it and Corin was telling a story about her holiday and the voice over guy said ‘I bet that holiday was in Benidorm’ LOL!
ReplyDeleteYo Cath hoping your having a cool time as well, I still want you to buy me a gift with that doller i gave you ;)
Pip... I don’t like you... but i hope your still having a cool time, and don’t let Rosie break your camera.
Rosie, Henry Holland is now fat and doing clothes for Primark in town, sorry I just had to tell you.
Nat... Nick and I have run off together and are starting a new life with each other. Sorry babe.
OMG today in our free today we tried to get ‘KP’ to speak, it took forever and Pav kept swearing at her (well funny) and in the end she still said nothing, :( Then afterwards she said sorry to me, but i think she might speak more now cause Charlotte not there now :)
Oh. One last think cause I having been to film for a while, I think Mrs Crossley thinks I’m Ecuador, ha ha ha ha ha.
See you soon, Love you Babe.
Charlotte - glad to see that your creative skills are being put to good use!
ReplyDeleteHey guys! Just looked through the blog - looks like you're having an amazing time!! I have various messages!
ReplyDeleteRosie - I have no Henry news. There probably is some, but I'm not going to lie, I couldn't really be bothered to go through his twitter. Don't take it personally! However there was a double page spread (actually, may have been 3 pages) on Jedward in this weeks Heat. I have saved it for you, but we will probably have both forgotten about it by the time it comes to your return! Ke$ha admitted that she fancies them...both of them.
Rosie & Pip - You missed a surprise visit from the Bishop of Reading in R.E yesterday!! It was actually really good, he isn't how any of us expected a bishop to be! I will tell you more when you're back as I don't want to post some of the things he said on here....(yes, it was that bad) Hint - think of something that Nicole would ask!!
Tilly - I am missing you so much. Geography just isn't the same! And we aren't doing much anyway. Andy is missing you too but he is too scared to use the blog yet! (Sorry Andy if you read this).
Anyway that is all from me, sorry for leaving a really long comment, if I post again I promise to leave it short! Sports Day is tomorrow so I will post and let you know who won...if anyone actually cares!
Hope you are all having a really really great time! Love from Sarah xxxx
Message for Becky Potter: i miss you like mad girl...hope you and everyone there is having an amazing time..i look forward to seeing the pictures. Becky i love you lots take care.. Rosie xxxx

Hi there James, this is Leena from Finland. Kristiina and I hope you're having a great time over there in Ecuador. How's the volunteer work coming along? Ya hables algunas palabras de Español? Enjoy it all and don't let the lizards bite you. Wouldn't recommend biting the lizards, either. Sorry, bad joke. xxxxxx
ReplyDeleteHi Cath - me again :D Mum and dad have abandoned me for the coast to coast, but I had some yummy fajitas at Fran's yesterday! (I've been going there for dinner instead of me and Emma attepting to cook!) Hope everything is great in equador, and the community project is going well - find some signal soon!!

ReplyDeleteTo Charlottte and her amazing compadres, Hej! from Martine and Robin.
ReplyDeleteRhiannan! Rhiannan! Rhiannan!
ReplyDeleteLola has just laid another 8 eggs - that is 20 eggs in just under three weeks. Your dad and I were sitting in the conversatory having a cup of tea when we spotted Lola sitting behind the wall (the same place where she laid before). I told your dad that it was a bit unusual for her to be there - as the only other time that she has been up there was when she laid the last eggs. The next thing she starts digging, and an hour later out pops 8 eggs. Even your dad helped this time, lifting out the eggs, washing them and putting them in the incubator. I am so excited. I can't believe it!!
Tonight is Olivia's party - the garden is lit up like Blackpool illuminations! Bryony is staying over at Lucy's sleepover birthday party.
Love you lots, Mum, Dad, Olivia & Bryony
Another 8 egggs...........
Hi J,
ReplyDeleteHow is the finger? It's Saturday, I saw the milkman again this morning after taking Ben and his budies to Gatwick for a 06:40 flight. I'm getting quite used to driving to airports Friday night/Saturday morning! Mum has emailed you your piano results. We (Mum) are just getting ready to go out to a Summer Ball - a black tie do! I supposed I better go an blow the moths out of my grandad's (that your great grandad's) DJ.
Love Dad XX
