Re:
Happy
birthday
He
may
have
Monica
but
I
have
the
best
Rally
remote
control
car
in
the
world.
Thanks
for
it.
I’m
gonna
bring
it
to
the
crappy
dance
thing
on
Sunday.
You
girls
can
paint
your
nails
and
watch
them
dance
while
I
drive
my
car.

You
can’t
bring
the
car
to
the
dance
competition!
How
unfair
to
Ruby
and
Gary
would
that
be
if
they
saw
you
playing
with
that
on
their
big
day?

Re:

Fine
then,
you
can
just
go
with
your
mum
then.
Have
a
good
day.
Byeeee!

No
no
no
no!
Hang
on!
OK
you
can
bring
it
but
you’ll
have
to
play
with
it
in
the
corridor
or
something.
I
don’t
wanna
go
to
this
thing
with
mum
on
my
own;
she’ll
be
introducing
me
to
the
entire
world
if
you’re
not
there.
Aloha
from
Hawaii!
I’ve
sent
photos
of
me,
your
dad,
and
some
people
that
we’ve
met
on
the
cruise.
Having
a
ball.
Heading
to
Samoa
and
Fiji
next.
Can’t
wait!
Love
to
you
and
Katie,
Mum
and
Dad

RUBY
AND
GARY
MINNELLI!
GOOD
LUCK!
I
WAS
GOING
TO
SAY
“BREAK
A
LEG”
BUT
I
DON’T
THINK
IT’S
QUITE
APPROPRIATE
FOR
THE
OCCASION.
YOU
WILL
BOTH
BE
BRILLIANT
AND
WE’LL
ALL
BE
CHEERING
FOR
YOU.

ROSIE,
KATIE,

Congratulations
you
Dancing
Queen!
I’m
so
proud
of
you!
Are
you
still
glowing
from
your
win?
I’m
not
too
sure
how
I’m
supposed
to
be
feeling
to
be
honest.
I
really
don’t
think
that
we
should
be
the
winners.
Oh
don’t
be
silly!
The
two
of
you
danced
brilliantly.
Miss
Behave
did
such
a
great
job
on
your
dress.
I’m
surprised
it
was
so
under-
stated
for
one
of
her
creations.
Black
with
glittery
sequins
looked
tres
chic
compared
to
all
the
others.
They
looked
like
rainbows
on
E.
Look,
you
won
it
fair
and
square—be
proud.

But
we
didn’t
even
get
through
to
the
final
round
.
.
.
Well
it’s
not
your
fault
the
couple
who
came
first
were
practicing
out
in
the
corridor.
Anyone
could
have
slipped
on
Toby’s
stupid
