A Big walk up a chalk hill

So after Elmo's big day at college with Jade and Chris, Elmo had a rest back with Val at home. Val then told Elmo it was time to take the dog for a walk. Elmo wasn't to sure about this. Elmo hopes the dog doesn't try to run off on Elmo!

We walked up a big hill to see Portsmouth below.







Elmo is so tired after his big day at college and the big walk that Elmo needs to go and have a rest. Val's kids have just told Elmo that he is going out tonight... boy is Elmo beat. Elmo is going to the pub! I hope they buy Elmo a pink lemonade and don't try to feed Elmo any of that warm beer (Elmo cant drink beer he is only 4!)

Elmo will post pics after Elmo has been to the pub.... boy this world tour is exciting.. OOHHHHHH Elmo has some more news.... Elmo is going to a football game with Karen... but they tell Elmo that is not like Football that he knows... Elmo sure is learning lots of new things.

Nite for now

Love Elmo

Day 1 in Portsmouth

What a massive day Elmo has had. Boy is Elmo glad he had a lil rest before starting out. Elmo went with Jade to college today. Elmo was really scared about this cause Elmo can only count to 4 but Jades college was fun. Elmo got to go to the catering class. Elmo thinks that he could teach them all how to cook much better! Boy does Jade have lots of friends and the people are all so nice to Elmo.
Today in cooking class Paul was making bread rolls, and Paul let Elmo help! Elmo is such a good cook!

Elmo on his way to college - all safe in the care seat!



This lady made Elmo a yummy hot chocolate!






Boy did Elmo have a wonderful day with Jade and Chris at college. Elmo was so tired after his big day that he had to go home and have a rest.
There is more adventures to tell about for the rest of Elmo's day but Elmo will have to tell you about them in a lil while.

Love you all lots
Elmo

So Elmo is alive and well!

Hi Everyone!


Guess where Elmo is now? Elmo bets you will never guess, so Elmo is going to tell you.

But before Elmo tells you where Elmo is, Elmo wants to say...

THANK YOU, THANK YOU


Elmo is outta the box!!


Elmo has finally arrived in England. Elmo got lost a little on the way but Elmo is now here and staying with a nice lady called Val and her family. As you can see Elmo am wearing my new t-shirt that Bradwin got me, don’t Elmo look cool.



Today Elmo is going to college (Elmo knows he hasn't even done preschool yet! Elmo hopes they don't make Elmo count past 4 cause Elmo can't do that yet!) to make lots of new friends with Jade and Chris, when Elmo gets back Elmo will have tea and then take JayJay the dog for a walk; Elmo hopes she doesn’t pull Elmo over.


Elmo is going to go and rest now before college.


Elmo is sooo happy to be back and boy was Lauren excited to see Elmo on web cam! Elmo promises he will get Val to post more pics of my days soon.


Love you all

Elmo

I have a suprise!!!!!

I have a huge suprise for you all!!!!

Ok.. as you know Elmo hasn't made it to his destinations and I haven't been able to update his blog with pictures of his travels etc. Anyone who knows me, knows this has really upset me. I wanted this to work, not only for the fun and joy we could all have doing it, but also for what it would mean at the end of the journey to a really special lil person.

I've been talking with Chuandelle, and she was so excited and ready to get Elmo. She had BIG plans for when he would arrive, playing in the snow, going on her school bus run, and meeting cowboys. I think that she was nearly as upset as I was over the whole thing not working. WELL..... Chaundelle has offered to start it again. She is going to do a year in the life of Elmo at her place!! (which mean there will be snow and cowboys at some stage!!). Not only this though, she is also going to send another Elmo off on the journey again (I think we will be editing the list and god help anyone who wants to steal Elmo this time).

So.. keep your eyes peeled for the first pics of Elmo. They will be coming to you soon!


Lauren (who is so excited and happy again!)...

Goodbye My Elmo, Goodbye My Friend

Hi All
It is with sad news that I say, Good Bye to you all.
Elmo, for what ever reason was just a failed social experiment.
As you know the first Elmo never even made it out of Australia. He was posted, no update was ever received and well.. that was the end of Elmo #1.

Me being me, bought another one to start the journey all over again. BUT well for what ever reason, Elmo even though he made it to his destination, hasn't had an update and no news can be raised from the person he was sent to.

After spending a lot of money on buying the Elmo's, then the postage, setting up his travel journal all twice, I am not going to be doing it again. It is sad that in the spirit of what this was about, to 1) connect people from all around the world with a bit of fun, and 2) to bring smiles to a little boy who has cancer, that we can not achieve this now.

If Elmo happens to magically turn up at the next place, and a update is forthcoming, then I will reopen his blog and the journey can start again!!

Thank you to everyone who wanted to participate and was so excited to make it happen. Maybe i will start something new another time.

Cheers and Merry Christmas
Lauren

Some new Elmo pics




Hi Folks
Elmo wanted to share this pic with you all. He is playing BBL at Margies and trying to win lots and lots of big bucks for her! Margie let Elmo play on the computer for ages, and she never got mad when Elmo mucked it up! Elmo liked playing at Margies today.









Lauren made me put on my PJ's to go to bed... Elmo is a little unsure about them. What do you think? Should Elmo tell Lauren no its not nice????

Well Elmo needs to go to bed now. Its been a fun and exciting day but boy is Elmo tired. Nite Nite everyone.

Love
Elmo xxx000xxx000





Elmo is gone :( :( :( BUT.... read on to find out....


Hi Folks
This is Lauren updating for Elmo.

Unfortunately Elmo hasn't made it over seas. You all know that he was held for ransom, I paid it for his safe release and on that I thought he would be free.. but alas it wasn't to be so.
I have had the Secret Service, the missing persons, and the FBI, CIA and ABC looking for him. All his pals, Bert & Ernie, Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch have all been out looking for him also. But I really think Elmo is just gone.

So in the spirit of what this was all about to begin with we are starting again!
I have a new Elmo who I went out to adopt today. He is bigger and better and no one better ambush him this time!.

Without any further ado, I introduce you all to
ELMO!



Here is Elmo playing BBL today!

Hi Everyone!

Elmo is sooo happy. Elmo came home today with Lauren and now Elmo can go all around the world. Elmo is sooo excited to be doing this. Elmo is sad to hear that the last Elmo didn't make it. Elmo hopes that I don't get stuck in a box for too long.

Lauren has told Elmo that Elmo is going to go overseas and that in some places it will be cold. Brrr Elmo doesn't like the cold.

Well Elmo is going to go and get dressed for bed and have an early nite. Its been an exciting day and Elmo needs some rest. OHhh Lauren bought Elmo some new jammies today to! They are very cute - but Elmo is not sure anyone should see him in them!

Love to everyone and Elmo cant wait to meet you all

Love

Elmo xxx000xxxx00000
