Hi Rebecca,

How ARE you?! It's been ages!! I thought I'd drop you a line seeing as I'm stuck in the airport with nothing vĩ đại bởi but make use of the không tính phí Wi-Fi.

Not that writing vĩ đại you isn't top of my list of things vĩ đại bởi, of course ;) but I've been totally snowed under at work, plus all the family stuff that's been going on ... Anyway, I'm just about vĩ đại go on a much-needed holiday sánh I really can't complain!

Anyhoo … what have you been up to? I saw Carol a couple of months ago – don't know if you heard what happened with her job but it made má feel grateful I only slightly hate mine – and she was saying your book is going vĩ đại be published?! GREAT news!!! Send má a liên kết and I'll definitely buy it and leave a five-star review :)

As for má, same old, same old re: job. Maggie and I broke up a while ago, as you know, but we're getting on much better now and it's working out far better for the kids. No-one new on the horizon but I'm off vĩ đại Canada travelling for a month (if this plane ever leaves!) sánh who knows?!
