Dear Dave, Emma here, we are having a wonderful time and Martin has decided to give up beer for lent, except on his birthday, when he turns in to an old git and we start buying him slippers and hot water bottles for his birthdays. And Ian has given everything up but not when it suits him (lack of will) - shut up Ian and stop looking- he keeps making comments. ....Well we hope to leave on Tuesday for Zimbabwe, but thats only if the lads manage to get their arses in to action, as usual I have to wait for hours until they are ready, and its even worse now because they have found this damned computer and want to spend all day on it. By the way, im not sure, dave, if the message was to you or not, but apparently, Martin recons hes having loads of women. Well he hasnt. They all think hes far too old. And my opinions of africa and lesotho coming soon. What a pity these boys cant spell. Thank you for putting the message on the net for me to Jane. .....About the spiders, They are huge and flat and they run at you if you try to spray them with Doom. I wonder why. Poor Ian is now becoming just as scared of them as I am, Ill be working on Martin soon. .....Wish you were here, weathers great, hahahahaha. E
