Dear Stef,
This is worth watching. I cried but still worth it. No violence, nobody dies, no swear words.

Lebanese Fruit Bongs
Dear Stef,
I have to say I am amazed by this photo.
I would have thought that you had learnt by now.
Learnt that you will not win this.
The delight you experienced when I bit so quickly, thinking the worse.
Do you not remember the time we went to Woolies very late one night and you thought it hilarious to slip a packet of condoms into my basket just before the checkout and the subsequent horror you experienced when on finding them in my basket I pulled them out and said in a very loud voice, excellent thank you for putting these in I had just ran out and need more, no hang on a second I need the extra large size.
And the embaressment you had infront of Nash when you thought you would embarress me into giving you money by suggesting that you would go and sell your body for money if I didn't give you any, my kind suggestion to make sure you used protection was met with a very amused, 'Mum I don't have any money I can't afford to buy protection' (nice help there Nash) so I offered to go up and give you some of mine.
Ah the deep red you blushed.
You will not win this war Stephanie, I don't embaress as easily as you.
Stay tuned,
Love Mum xxxxx

The Vagabond Son
Dear Stef,
Well this is how he was introduced to me by his mother and considering he looked slightly vagabondish and was driving around in this ute I thought it apt.
I ended up having the most wonderful conversation covering so many topics my head was spinning, he was the sort of person you could stay up all night with talking about every subject imaginable. For a vagabond he was a very knowledgeable and interesting person. He travels around Australia in this ute going from pub to pub in the outback doing a comedy routine.
The ute is powered by used peanut oil that he gets from fish and chip shops that he encounters on his journey's. Well into our conversation I asked how old he was (thinking that he would be around 26 or 27) I nearly fell off my chair when he said 38 and then nearly fell off again when his mother piped in and said he has no mortgage and no children of course he looks that young.
He then (at the request of his mother - what a women) proceded to make balloons for all the kids, within seconds he had sussed out their personalities and C was soon in possession of a balloon sword.
His mother (really she is the mother of the year - much better than me) said he had recently been refered to as a most unlikeable character which was very, very funny as you can just imagine what sort of person would not see past the beard and the lifestyle as see him as that.
I am now just barely speaking to you after THAT photo on facebook - lebanese or not you will pay for that.
Plan to be back by September big event coming up.
Love Your Mother

Sea Kittens and a Visitor
Dear Stef,
The world has gone mad(der) the people that protect the fish in the sea have tried to change their names from fish to sea kittens, figuring that if they were called sea kittens people were less likely to eat something that had a name that cute. This is a true story
I had a visitor. Bad Jane, Naughty Jane. Still naughty but not quite so bad!
I am very glad the English let you into the country, surprised but glad!
I have finished the Twilight series, was over it so sped read the last book, will go back and read it again when I have more time.
That's all, good luck with the job hunting - I think you should take the job in New York - just my two cents (and that has nothing to do with the fact that I have enough frequent flyer points to get to New York not to mention a 'friend' going there on a job next year)!!!

Summer Days
Dear Stef,
Hope your not too cold. Yesterday was a scorcher, Suey came over for dinner and we made hamburgers on the BBQ and ate them outside. I have yet to start sanding back Grandad's wooden table - might save that till you get back :-)
Thank's to you I spent hours yesterday going through all my travel photo's. I love this one, it is truly the most beautiful pool and surroundings I have ever been to and the water was so warm you could just dive straight in *bliss*
The thing I remember most about this place was lying on the lounge in my bikini reading my book (and surreptitiously watching all the VERY interesting people walk by) when a little Asian girl (about 3 or 4) and her mother walked past, the little girl looked at me, pointed and burst into squeals of laughter, her mother looked very embarrassed and hurried her along. I was left there to wonder what the heck was so incredibly funny. Even a visit to the bathroom to check out if I had something funny on me proved fruitless.
This was also the place where a man lying on the lounge near me was called His Highness, all the staff walking by would stop and bow and say Good Morning Your Highness. Any inquiries as to who he was were met with 'we have no one special staying here at the moment' which made my companion once again doubt my story.
If you bump in to the Queen or High do send my regards,
Love Mum xxxxx

Dearest Stef,
Please could you tell me where the remote control is to the air-conditioner in your bed room. I have searched everywhere and cannot find it. I lay on your bed and put my hand out in each direction (imagining you lying in bed with a shocking hangover knowing you would not move far to get it) but still no luck.
The photo's of the beach in Mexico are just beautiful. Although this isn't Mexico this is my favourite beach, the water was so warm, beach white and sandy, never a cloud in the sky and the nicest people.
Another beach but the best sunset ever best cocktails too :-)
Hope your next plane trip involves no adventures.
Love Mum xxxx

Rainy Day's
Dear Stef,
It was a cold rainy day here in Port thus we were forced to stay indoors and read and watch tv all morning, Wendy and Charlotte were in heaven.
There was much talk this afternoon of many activities when Guy and Julie came over with Zac and Jenna but none came to fruition as we were all being too lazy and the afternoon has been whiled away. Cooper and I are currently lying on the daybed playing with Iggle Piggle (whoever that may be).
Hopefully we will get to the beach tomorrow so I can finally get Charlotte surfing the waves.

Holes and more
Dear Stef,
I am very glad you had such a good New Years Eve, I am relieved you have now stopped vomiting. Poor Jess there is nothing worse than not quite making the toilet let alone actually vomiting on the front steps of a posh hotel (or a house in Lane Cove).
Trust you two to pick friends that don't pay their gas bills and then go away and leave you in a flat in the middle of Winter in New York with no heating. As you said it's free!! Stay warm really does take on new meaning.
Beach again today. Charlotte dug a hole to the middle of the earth.
She actually managed to reach water. You would have thought she had found gold she was so excited. She even made me take a photo - where ever did she get that from!
Caught up with Julie and Cedar this afternoon, their house is beautiful and backs onto the bush. Cedar at 8 months is just the cutest and most sociable little boy. You will have to come up here when you get back (so you can defrost).
Julie is loving being a Mum but still doing too much - some things never change!! It's hard to believe it's been two years since I sold the school - how life can change in two short years :-)
Had very loud dinner last night lots of people!! The kids all had an absolute ball, Cooper desperatly tried to keep up with them and only cried when they used him as a test dummy on something they were building,
Hope you get some warmth soon. Shame you are not here you would love it, though Tully wouldn't like the waves :-) You get to sleep on the floor though as C and I have taken the 2nd bedroom.

Jan 1st 2009
Dear Stef,
We are here.
You would LOVE this place, both C and I have decided this would be very easy to get used to. I suspect this is going to become a regular thing. Only a short walk to the beach and up high enough to get the sea breeze and a view.
In the car coming up I told C that you were out in minus 7 with snow dressed in your high heels and a dress. She cracked up laughing but then clarified it wasn't the fact that you were wearing high heels in the snow that she was laughing at it was the fact that YOU were wearing high heels.
We spent the afternoon at the beach and C learnt the art of surfing a wave, you would have killed yourself laughing at her, I will take photo's tomorrow.
Everybody is here and just about to have dinner. Tried calling you to wish you HNY but you were clearly too pissed to answer the phone.
Spoke to Travis and he is having a ball with the cats Rani has fallen in love with him.
Stay warm,
Love Mum xxxxx
