Cazzy marshall Hi you two!!!! Glad you are settling into the Aussie life, make the most of it whilst you are there as time will pass so quickly now. We are wrapped up in our dressing gowns tonight with the fire on as the weather is changing a bit here. It's fab that Jordan is working and your new home looks absolutely amazeballs, so jealous. We are sure something will turn up for you too Ellysia, with your looks and personality there should be people queuing up to give you a job, good luck with it all. It's great you can still speak to your school mates, you are still very much involved in their conversations and plans and there will be plenty of catching up when you get back. Gabzie still busy at work and as far as I know there's still no boyfriend, she says she hasn't got time at the minute!!!!!!! Lucy is at Rishworth sixth form and loving it and made some lovely new friends too. She's out parting a bit now too and started driving lessons so will be very independent of us soon . Frankie not keen on school and is leaving as soon as she can to open a dog day nursery!!!!!! John still thinks he's 35 and has started wearing loafas and rolling the sleeves up on his shirts like Simon Cowell!!!! It's great to see what you are both doing and from this side of the world your travelling time is passing so so quickly so just enjoy yourselves and make the most of the weather and the new experiences. Lots of love to you both xxxxxx
