Hi Katey & Valerie

Its February & it’s been snowing in England, in fact we have had the most snow for 18 years. The last time we had a decent amount of snow was when Charlotte was a little girl about your age Katey (4yrs).

Its been a long cold winter here in England so I’m looking forward to the spring & summer. Soon the spring flowers will be showing and that always cheers me up. The hours on the buses are long and varied. Getting up at 3.30am in the depths of winter is hard but I’m doing my best and lucky to have a job what with the global recession. Things look pretty bleak and the pound is very weak against the dollar which means it is getting expensive to visit you. I am trying to save up but the cost of living is making it difficult. I do wish that you could come to England to see me.

Today the buses are not running in London because of the snow so I may not have to go to work later, I’ll have to phone work to see what they say. Charlotte has the day off school, she is very happy as well as me

I miss you both terribly and hope we can see each other soon, in the mean time you are in my thoughts everyday, I hope you are both well and happy.

Love to you always

Dad XX
