Hello there family and friends (namely Patrick, David, Mom, Dad, Nana and Pappy, and Lindsey),

So things are going pretty well here in England, but if you want truly great stories you will just have to snail mail. Hahaha bribery. I love it. Yeah, but snail mail is one of the greatest things ever here - so do it! Besides you write me, I write you, and everyone loves that feeling of looking in the mailbox and seeing a letter addressed to them. I know I did at least. And this week I have a pretty epic story involving the Zone leaders, setting a mission record, and at least 2 pineapples. Hooked? You should be, but I guess Lindsey will be the only one to hear about it :P. wuahaha! But in answer to your questions mother, no it has not been raining constantly. So far it has only been about once a week. So that was nice, but we are heading in to winter, so it is about to start picking up. But it has actually been REALLY hot this week! It is the first time in my mission I served without my jacket. And it is so humid that heat is unbearable. I am almost glad for winter. Oh and as to your other question, breakfast for me usually consists of a beef and egg burrito. I put more effort into my morning meal than most because our flat has the best shower in the mission, so Elder Montgumery usually gives me plenty of time. :) Lunch is exceptionally random. Sometimes members will give us food to take home (namely Sister/mama Ives) (for more info on that character write letters) and we will just nuke that or something else easy. But I have gotten away from horrible microwave meals. They taste great but 29 grams of fat in one go - that's ridiculous! (Try yelling that at in an English accent sometime - it is great) No I usually do something involving some type of cook-able meat and lettuce. Yeah, it is pretty intense, but I actually really enjoy lettuce now, it is crazy! But hey, I gots time constraints. g2g

Love,
