Just as your mum said, glad to now see photos of New Zealand, it looks amazing, very envious of you both. You both look like you are having a great time. Keep us updated with your travels, it makes our boring lives in London a lot more exciting! Take care and lots of love. Lou and Sam xx

At last Andy and Jane some more photos on your website, you have been neglecting your viewing public! Obviously far too busy enjoying yourselves. Actually I think you have found paradise. Sleet and snow here today, just about 2C, have looked at Santiago weather, 30C and sunny. You will not be liking next winter here after your endless summer! Photos of NZ are fabulous, even more excited about going now. Thank you for photos of tree ferns and kauri trees, plant photos always good! Stephen looks as if he has a great job I like his office! Hope you enjoy all your adventures in South America, look forward to seeing more wonderful photos, take care, lots of love Mum xxx

It is taking some time to fully settle back to our normal routines after a super time in New Zealand on WT with Jane and Andy. We saw some wonderful scenery, interesting wildlife and vegetation and unusual geological features. Hopefully pictures will show some of this when the website is updated. Hope all goes well for J & A as they move on to a new continent on the 21st.

hey kids, just been looking at your oz pics, i am so jealous!! it looks amazing. hope you are enjoying new zealand. miss you bith loads. love ellyxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Andy and Jane

Just a quick message to say hi. Things are going well here in blighty apart from it being rainy and cold. We went down to see Liz and Paul for her Birthday at the week end and had a really good time, it was nice to see everyone, and i took some pictures on your mums camera so she will be forwarding them to you. We are at my Mum and Dad's at the moment, my dad is doing really well after the operation.

Looking forward to seing you both, only about 6 weeks now

Hi to you both. I am still enjoying viewing your photos.I especially like the hats.Keep them hidden from your Mum
Jane, or she will be adding them to her school display.Steve deposited your Mum @ Dad at the airport bus on
Sunday morning to start their adventure.Hope you have a fantastic time sharing some of your travels with them.
I will be looking forward to hearing all about it.
Best wishes to you both

happy new year, christmas, burns night (late i know), easter (early!) etc etc. i was just catching up on the oz photo albums and a horrible realisation occurred: 1 minute i was sleeping in a camper van on my way to coral bay, the next i was sleeping on the 253 on my way to new southgate, in the dark. i can find several morals in this story:

1- dont live in hackney and work in enfield.
2- earn your money then go travelling.
3- enjoy every minute, the dream wont last for ever, nothing does, reality exists, i want my camper!

on that optimistic note i shall bid you farewell, ive got some svp's to reposition (soil vent pipes for those who dont care) and i shall be e-mailing you shortly with all the news, take care guys, have a tooheys for me, love roch.

Happy New Year to both of you. Loved seeing the photos of your Christmas and New Year, it looked fab, especially the weather. Logging on occassionally to see what you are up to, I wished it was me with all those cute animals especially the roos, they look a bit like the whippets. Anyway, continue enjoying yourselves and take care. Lou and Sam x

Loved the latest pictures of Christmas and New Years celebrations down under. All looked fantastic with lots of stunning blue skies. The lack of captions and order kept us guessing. We were impressed, Jane, with all of your outfits that you seem to conjure up from the rucksack. How many tops has she smuggled in, Andy? Looking forward to seeing you both soon in New Zealand. Can't wait.

Love to you both, we beg your forgiveness for not being in touch before but I am in informatic disaster, we would have liked to have wished you a happy Christmas, but please make do with our very best wisher for the New Year. We have instigated a special savings program to try and make 2007 weddings and corresponding gift, regret at the moment no guarantee, but we will see you any way. Love to you both K+K
