Other People's Emails

Every now and again I get emails from Betty.

Hi there
Island tour was great yesterday. The semi live volcano was fantastic. The restaurant there cooks their food over the heat from the volcano. During one big eruptions during the 17th 18th century the only building left standing was the church with the priest inside, who survived. Perhaps it was a good idea you were reordained! After the heat of the volcano we went to a cooling Aloe vera plantation
Did you try to ring us the other day? We didn't have our phone on.
Don't know if you have left for HK yet Rachel, hope all goes well.
Luv

Greetings from Lanzarote. Hope your flight went well Rachel and you are not working too hard! Think we told you about our Montanas del Fuego volcano trip, since then we have been to the yearly Carnival at Puerto del Carman and had a great evening. Costumes unbelievable and so colourful. Procession startedat 5.30 pm and ended at 11.30 pm. Only 150,000 locals live on the island and we think most of them were in the procession!!
Hotel great, trying hard to limit food and drink intake. Not easy! Will have to diet on our return.......
Love to both of you

Hope you had a good journey home and trains were on time. Lovely to see you over the past few days, we both enjoyed our time with both of you.
Found Rachel's green jacket behind the bedroom door. Popped it in the post today. Addressed it to Dundas Street as it wouldn't go through the letterbox and expect you'll both be out when it arrives.
Enjoy your week..............

I've tried letting her know that unless I'm very much mistaken I'm not her daughter but to no avail. You gotta love other people's emails.
