Hi, Sophie,
I hope you're enjoying your trip. We're all fine. Dad's retired now. I don't know if he's happy though. He's become a news addict. He gets up at 7 a.m., goes to the newspapers and buys two different papers. I just read the herald, but he reads everything. Even the gossip column! He's even started talking about working part-time as a journalist. And then he spends the rest of the day watching TV! Especially the 24-hour news channels. He never watches anything I like. No brilliant series, operas or games shows. Nothing fun at all. If I have to watch another nature documentary, I'll go mad!
Love,
Julie
