Hi Lynne - Well As promised – A letter, although to tell you the truth not a lot has happened here over the past month I 'm getting a bit fed up with going out in Killyleagh so I think I 'll spend the next few weekends in Belfast with Kevin – who is currently too sick to even sit at his desk at the minute. Apparently he has a slipped disc and is in complete agony. I went up to Belfast last weekend. Both of us were broke so we couldn't go out anywhere and Kevin has this major piece of work to be in for March so he was studying all the time – I was bored out of my mind.

I 'm trying to learn how to play the guitar. Flap is going to give both me and Lorcan lessons from next week onwards – in exchange for driving lessons! – in my car That will totally kill it. My Mum probably mentioned in her letter but Flap + Red won £ 2000 in the lottery – 5 numbers – They are like celebreties celebrities in Killyleagh now + needless to say everyone's looking a loan from them.

Jennifer has just recently been asking, "Wheres Lynnie?" A whole month and she's only realising now!

- Dermot was working in Smugglers last weekend and at the end of the night he found a lottery ticket – He checked the numbers the next day – 4 numbers – the lucky git won £ 128 – He didn't tell mum so don't mention it in any of your letters.

I haven't seen Del or Paul since you left but Kevin said they were both at the Union on New Years eve – totally off their heads.

Your house looked very nice + big – which it will need to be if everybody comes out that says they 're going to! I 'll probably book my ticket at Easter. Kevins not sure how long he can stay for but I hope to stay for at least 6 weeks – Write to Kevin – he's pissed off that you haven't replied to his letter yet – I 'll write again when something interesting happens – if it does!

-See you soon Love Vanessa PS I passed my exams –

- I didn't realise there was room on this side – It seems such a waste so I 'll try to think of something else to write.

Sorry – can't think of anything! Bye
