Hi Em,
Hope you are fine and that you having a good New Year. Things are OK here. Lulu was unwell this week but she seems fine again now. When I got home last Tuesday she was lying by the back door and seemed very weak and unhappy. She also vomitted after I carried her inside. I took her to the after hours vet that night and to her normal vet in the morning. After doing a blood tests the vet thought she might have been hit by something, poor girl. I took her home last night and she seems back to her normal self now, thanks goodness. It is very quiet at home when she is not there. She is a lovely cat!
I'm writing this to you on an XO computer. It is the computer that the One Laptop per Child organisation has made for children in developing countries. It is really sweet to use. I got it through the “Give One, Get One” programme. This is where you buy two XO computers, one is send to children in developing countries and one is for you to keep.
Hope you are having a lovely time, Em. I think it is Chinese New Year soon, so will get you something for then.
Lots of love,

Hi Em,
Happy New Year!! I hope you have a lovely 2009! I have had a fairly quiet New Year but that is quite nice really. There are fireworks and rockets going off right now (luckily Lulu is safe inside). I was in the city earlier this evening and had a look at the fireworks there. It was very busy in the city but interesting to see.
Wishing you all the best for 2009.
Lots of love,

Hi Emma,
Hope you had a lovely Christmas yesterday. I had a good day. First I went to the St Andrew's church service in the morning and then I went home, quickly cooked a bit and then had a very nice lunch with Alex and Nancy. It was lovely sitting out on the veranda in the warmth after lunch - very peaceful and relaxing. In the evening I phoned your Grandma and Grandpa in NZ to have a chat and wish them a very happy Christmas
Hope you are enjoying a good break now. I'm thinking I'll go for a walk but the day is marching on. If not today, then hopefully tomorrow!
Take care and thinking of you.
Lots of love,
