mum Just had a look at your photos - lovely to see you 4 together and it looks as though you're having a great time.We've got A Gill's wedding on Sunday so give them a toast whereever you are. Mum xx

John G Love seeing all your photos! Am I allowed to reminisce? Thelma & I stopped over in Singapore and Malaysia on our way to Perth and your photos brought all the happy memories back although we didn't "explore" Malaysia as you obviously did! You are going to have so many memories - fantastic! John xx

Mum Dont be so lazy - its not as though you have got to go to work or anything!!! We like looking at the photos but we also love reading your blogs!!

Leah Hi! Hope your having a great time in New Zealand= i wish I was there too!! It sounds as though you've had a great time so far. Chess- I can't believe you went sky diving AND bungee jumping, youre much, much braver than me (remember how I was on the trampolines in Spain.) Looking forward to hearing about what you get up to next and seeing more photos! and cant wait to see you when you get home!! lots of love Leah xxxxx ps. my mum, dad, hannah, ella and sam send their love too!!

LIN Hiya, Hope you got some easter eggs over there. The place names to go are Mt Cook Glacier, Over To Wellington on the ferry. Mr Ruapau is the live volcano people ski on North Island. Definite must is Rotorua which is built on active geysers. Take care LIN

Bonnie Hiya Sorry Chess I can't remember your email address so here is mine... [email protected] Bon xx

Cassie Hey guys, just a quicky to say your pix are fab, though kinda embarrassed about the ones of me drunk in Maun, i didnt even know people had photographic evidence of that night argh, oh well we had fun didnt we. And the photos of the bare bums and so called 'saggie maggies' (guess sam named the bushman people this) speak for themselves really. I hope your having the time of your life, i miss Africa heaps and am still operating in African time, nothing is a rush lol. I hope your dvds arrived home ok, i sent them on that first Monday back. Speak soon. Once agian your website ROCKS. love Cassie xox

Bonnie Hi Chess! Hope you are well, it certainly sounds like you are enjoying yourselves! I have been reading your journals and what you have been doing sounds amazing. Your mum was telling me about your sky dive, very brave of you! I would like to do it, but I'm not sure I could. I did an abseil on Friday, it wasn't very high and that was scary enough for me! Anyway, I know you are busy, but if you would like to email me I would love to hear from you! Take care - both of you! Love Bon xx
