I think they are saying in the first message(in proper English)..

"Hi what are you up to, anything good? Get back/reply "

Get back to me= reply to me

owt= anything

also if people say 'nowt' it is slang for "nothing"

It is frustrating when people don't use proper English, text language is taking over

1st one - Hi babe, what are you up to? Any thing good? Get back to me.

2nd one - Hi babe, what are you up to? Any thing nice? Get back to me.

This looks like mobile phone language unfortunately!

sorry cyrano - even repeating it aloud didn't work - i guess u could do with some native english speakers' help here :-S
I see you got answers - see that's why no matter how well u learn a language - only a native could be able to tackle with something like this
