well done mum and dad for the updates they were great!

Hi Chris & Emma - sounds like you're being very brave up there in only a tent!! We're leaving for Singers on 15th December and returning on 23rd. Will you be in the area at any time? I'll look up the Oriental, so far it's between the Allson and the Oxford (cheapest with a fridge and brekky)!

hi guys, sounds like you're having a grrrreat time in Oz, can't believe you braved all them snakeys with just your tent! noice
let us know how the campervanning goes, it can't possibly be superior to the legendary NZ Bongo Friendee - or can it ....!?
lots of love
Jo
ps - better get that barnet done quick-sharp, there's wanted posters of a hairy englishman all over Singapore - they have penalties for lengthy syrups, and yours was apparently TOO MUCH

Hey dudes!
Wicked news about your flights (D&C), can't wait to see you - and for Xmas too!!!! At the mo we're planning on getting to Sydney on the 20 somethingth. Just checking out our options for getting down the coast. We've just had 5 nights going around Kakadu, Litchfield & Katherine with a tent, getting acosted by Roo's, crocs and a LOT of birds.
We had a great time in Singapore Barbara. The Oriental was lovely, but we didn't have to pay for it either..... Check out Tripadvisor, we've seen some pretty good deals on there.
Laters dudes, off to get me barnett chopped pre-Cairns.

Hi, we've got 2 flights on hold for Oz & NZ. To get the 3 weeks off work we have to go over Xmas. The plan would be arrive Oz (Sydney) 24/12 and fly to NZ 28/12. Return to UK on 13/1. I know your itinery is different but hopefully this will mean we have at least 1 week with you. Let us know what your dates are and we'll start making some plans!! xxx

Well done Jean and Bernard Your reports were spot on great read. One for the local paper perhaps????

Hi Chris & Emma - your trip sounds wonderful! This is just a question asking if you know your dates in Oz yet? We are about to book flights to Singapore from 16th Dec to 23rd Dec, I hope this doesn't clash. I've just had another OK from Dr's and Jamie is going to be in Singapore from 15th to 27th December. Keep on enjoying, you're only young enough once! We would appreciate any info you have on Singapore accommodation. Stayed at the Mandarin last time (1982) that was included in air fare for 4 nights for very little money! This time it's at our own expense!

Hello - where abouts are you? What are your plans from now till Xmas? Still working on the idea of coming to NZ for New Year. Need to wait till Dave gets back tomorrow from NY. Give me a quick call if you have a chance (or the money) xxx
