Hello,

At least you know who your pooches will be going to and you can get to see them if and when you ever come back to the UK. It is tought but it's for the best for them, we really seriously considered taking Fergus our pup across to NZ and everything they have to go through is so unfair for them.

If you're thinking of getting a lappy try the Dell website, we got a really cheap one for the same purpose as what yoou're looking at for really cheap and I know my friend got the same one about 2 months ago and it was even cheaper!

We're the same at the moment with each other getting snappy and grumpy but its just the stress and it seems its only ever one of us down in the dumps at the one time so we're having to try and pick each other up. Its so hard not snapping at times. I think its because you are both going through the same thing and trying to explain to someone else how stressed your feeling just isnt the same and they just dont understand how one minute your up the next your down kinda thing.

We're a bit stressed at the mo cos of problems with the sale of the house, solicitors and estate agents are causing us major grief as they just cant do their job right, get this they forgot to tell their legal team that the house sold on Friday and its now Tuesday!! ahhhh but anyhoo, just gotta keep focussing on August...

Try and keep your chin up, just got to pick ourselfs up and think what a fab time we'll have and great stories we'll be able to friends and family back in the UK.

Right well I think I bet you on the essay front, hope you both start feeling better...
