Several minutes ago(before 12.30pm of the 5th)I GOT YOUR LOVELY POSTCARDS, CARD WITH YOUR THOUGHTFUL LETTER
It's really ENGLNAD
Of coure I CAN read your writing
Your writing is very tidy
Such a wonderful posts with full of "words" from you I got and your mail really make me very happy with

I'll send you postcards when I get some as we haven't got so many postcads like yours(England, France...) as our culture is rather of "letter" not of "postcard/card"(I hope you understand what I mean)

Cherry blossoms are fully blooming now here, though it's bit cold today
I'll go to clinic to see my as regular meenting this afternoon

Well, Thank YOU, thank you for your postcards and letter s

Take Care, Sheryl
I'll keep in touch

Love,

Taeko

Sheryl

Good afternoon Taeko,
I'm pleased that you got the cards and letter safely, so pleased you like them...
For the past few days the weather has turned colder with rain showers and high winds, but the sun keeps trying to shine through...
You pictures didn't open, one had a messags saying it was too big, they have to be no more than 50000 bytes, if you understand that..
Hope all went well with your doctor at the clinic... I'm going to get ready to go out shopping...
Take care my friend...

Hiya Sheryl
How are you?
for not sending you some letters nor postcards yet.
I'll send some when I find one
It's been very sunny and lovely days for days, though it's cloudy today.
it seems that I've got a slight cold because of recent fickle weather. But as I hardly have a cold and I'm very strong with this kind of illness, so don't worry about it
I'll keep quiet at home and stay in (maybe) bed and have a rest.
When I was young I didn't care even I had a fever, but I feel a bit tired even if I sneeze or feel bit chilly. I feel that I get older
Well, I'll chat you soon
Take care, hun
See you soon, Sheryl, my dear friend
Have a lovely weekend
Love,
Taeko

I'm about to start reading A Tale of Two Cities I hope I won't give up finishing reading

Good morning Taeko...

Nice to hear from you my friend.. Hope your cold soon clears up, I've been a bit sniffly myself past couple of days.. It's like you say, fickle weather, one day dry and sunshining, the next it's cold and wet... Today we have the sunshine again... I hope it stays like this for a few days as the grass in our back garden is growing thick and high and needs to be cut, but it's so wet that we can't use the lawn mower, it needs to dry out a bit first...

It's ok about the letters and post cards, you take your time.. I'm not the quickest in replying myself.. lol, and I know what it's like when you're looking for something suitable to send, you can never find it...

I hope you enjoy your book Taeko.. I don't do a lot of reading myself, never can concentrate on a full story, I always forget what has happened... lol...

Well I must go for now, but I'll stay in touch my friend...
Sheryl.. xxxxx

Hiya Sheryl

I feel better than I woke up.
But I feel bit teird. I think it's becaue not only of weather, but also the coming "monthly messanger"

To tell the truth, I read lots of victorian novels which I was major in at uni. But I know everybody enjoys Dicken's works, so I tried to read it at first, then if possible, I'll keep reading English novel

Is it still cold there?
If so, please keep yourself warm
and relax yourself

I hope we'll see you soon again, Sheryl
Take Care



Taeko

Hiya Sherly
I wonder if Marc is well
It's very difficult to contact him as we don't have any "txst" message system
Pleas give my all regards to him when you contact him

Love,
Taeko

Hello again...

The sun is shining at the moment and it feels quite warm as it shines on you, it is shining through the window and I can feel it's warmth... When it goes in though, I can feel the cold creeping back...

Marc was online Wednesday night, he is very busy working but he is doing ok... I have his mobile number so I will send him a text message later...

I thought that you would have all the latest gadgets for sending text messages as you are in japan... Or can you not send them to mobile phones in other countries??? I don't know how the system works regarding that.. I know that some phones can't call other countries, don't think mine does, I think I have to subscribe to something called roaming... Mine is on a pay-as-you-go package..

Hiya
I've just telephone to Marc and chat a few minutes
Unfotunately we haven't any "text message" system, you can't send me text message.
And if you call me you will get huge amount telelphon fee
I boutght prepaied over toll telelphone card, the time to speake is limited. This is very convenient for me to phone to overseas friends.

Amyway, I'm very happy to contact you evne through the h2s2

It's getting colder now

I'll keep myself warm and hae a rest this weekend

Take Care s

Love,

Taeko

We pay a set monthly fee for our home phone, it includes the line rental and unlimited calls to other landlines throughout the United Kingdom.. We have to pay extra if we call mobiles or overseas, also premium rate numbers.. I'm unsure of how much it will cost per minute to call Japan, as I have never called anyone overseas..

I pay £10 a time to top up my mobile phone... I use it mostly to send text messages to other mobiles as it cheaper than calling them.. Sometimes I can use the whole amout in a week, other times it will last over a month.. It all depends how many text and calls I make..

Hiya Sheryl
Please check your e-mail inbox
I don't know why, but I can't contact Chris
I've got cold, indeed
Sneezing, sleeping
I'll try to keep myself warm and live a quiet life this weekend
Take Care Sheryl
See you soon
Love,
Taeko

Hello again Taeko my friend...

You just take it easy my love... Lots of rest and keeping warm for you, also lots of warm drinks.. Even if you don't feel like eating anything, keep your fluid (drinks) intake up...
Sleep is the bodies way of repairing and curing itself.....


Helen said last night that she had a text from chris, he wasn't well, so wasn't at work or online... Don't think that it's anything to worry about hun....

I have sent text to Marc and passed on your love and kind regards... He said he would be online tonight....

Sheryl..... xxxxxxxxxxxxx

p.s. .... We don't usually give our home telephone number out hun because of personal problems, although I know you won't pass it on.... I will have a word with my husband about it hun.... ..
I could send you my mobile number but don't know if you can get through on it, but it would cost you more I think, but I could be wrong....

Sheryl....xxxxxxxxxx

Sheryl
It's really inconvenient when I want contact you directly
As we haven't got any TEXT SYSTEM, this makes me more and more difficult to contact.
But whenever I ask some of you(esp. you, Sheryl), I'll get to know what's up in the UK

My cold has become a bit worse(don't worry). sore throat, sneezing. That's it
Try to be quiet this weekend hun

AAAAAaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwww It's SUNNY AND A lovley day today but I can't go out but staying at home
Well, I will be fine tomorrow, hopefully

How are you, then, Sheryl, hun?
Has your husband finished cutting lawn? I'm sure beautiful season in the UK will come soon

Take Care

Love as always

Taeko

Hiya Taeko,

Sorry your cold is getting worse hun, just take it easy...
The weather today is really warm and sunny.. .. Yes my husband finally managed to cut the lawn today. it looks a lot better now, all tidy.. I even managed to hang some washing out on the washing line today, it's nearly dry now, will bring it in later.... The sunshine has made me feel a lot better within myself, I've had more energy and been quite busy... Bet I'll be in agony tomorrow.... lol.. Not to worry, a couple of will make it better....

Be in touch soon hun.....
Take care, lot's of love Sheryl....xxxxxxx

Hiya Sheryl

I've got slight fever
It's not HOT, but have slight fever now.
I think this means "moon messenger" will come soon

But this time, I feel very yuk
I'd better to go to bed and sleep enough, then I'll be well

Yeah, if your surroundings will be tidy, you feel very comfortable I know
I cleaned my room last week, and I feel better than before I cleaned

for you

Take Care, Sheryl

See you soon

I'll go to bed

Love,

Taeko

Sleep well Taeko,
Lets hope the "moon messenger" won't linger too long for you... I know, it isn't nice..
Chat soon hun....

Sheryl...xxxxxx

It(back/stomach)'s very painful at the first day. I need medication, otherwise I can't move But only one day patient
But it hasn't come yet. So, I don't know whether this dull condition is becaruse of cold or because of the omean of the moon messenger

Well, it's almost half past three in the morning, as my doctor and pharmacist adviced me, I'll better to go to bed so that I can wake up in the morning and make my everyday routine normal

Sheryl, take care

Love,

Taeko
