Hi you two' Just to let you both know we have sent you another Email, hope you are getting them. Love Mum anf Dad

Wow glacier walking looks ace! Did you meet Ieuan? he works on one of the glaciers and would love to see you, Jonny email him and you'll be able to meet up, i sent you his email address and he replied asking you to email him. Looks like you are really making the most of New Zealand. We went to Daymer bay at the weekend and Tom went kitesurfing, he was doing 'big airs' but landing like a cow! It was very funny, Me, Joshua and Winston had a laugh watching on the beach. There were some really good guys out windsurfing and surf at Daymer so they were jumping doing somersaults off the back of the waves! It was a lovely day in our van which is now fully kitted out with cupboards and a new bed and three seats in the front! We are all well and enjoying Joshua, he is turning into a real little character. Looking forward to seeing you both in April, Lots of Love,

Hello Pals! s*** things have been busy here and i know it's a lame excuse for not keeping up to date with your adventures, and dropping in the odd hello on the message board, but it's true i have been busy! So I have been sailing lots resently and actually managed to go for a sail on Sydney Harbour the other day in the Lieghtweight Sharpie NSW State Championships! didn't go all that great in the racing but still had a wicked sail! Then last weekend I went down to Jervis Bay, and sailed in the Hobie 16 NSW State Champs, it was blowing 25+ knots for most of the 7 races we did, and I was loving it 47 H16 on the Start line! am a bit rusty at Hobie 16 sailing plus had the Rig set up wrong for going downwind! we finished 22nd overall! Not long before I get deported back to the UK! BOOOOO! major stress trying to organise tickets, freight, leaving doos, and my bloody B-day! which happens to fall right in the middle of this sea of Dates, timings and other general s***! Guys I know we've only seen each other just recently, but I want to meet up again like tomorrow, think that i'll just teleport down there tonight, just to hang out for a bit and to run away from all this stress back here in Canberra! f*** it would be so cool if only that was possible! See you when you get back to the yUcK! In the mean time! I'll Miss ya and keep trying to invent a teleport machine! Your Dangerous!

Hi There, Great to keep up with your travels. Feeling tired out just reading about it!!! You must be super-fit to ride all those miles! Phew!! NZ looks amazing. What a fantastic experience your having! We're missing Laura already and counting the days till August! Lots of love and hugs to you! Keep safe and have fun xxx

Hello Chicken Licken & Jonny sorry that I have not written to you for a few days, but I'm still down here in St Ives and like Brian and Nigel I think I too suffer from SAD, the weather has been horrid and miserable, and makes me feel the same. I don't know when I am going back to London, but Daddy wants me home soon as the food in the freezer is running low ha ha (cheek!) I miss you loads and loads, and my life feels really empty not having you around to annoy me. We hope to go out to Cyprus around the end of March and I can't wait, just to feel the warmth of the sun and awaken when it is clear skies, o joy! Take good care of each other. Love you loads Mummy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Dont forget to let me know when you get back home i will ring you!!!!!!!!!!!!Miss you loads and loads. take care, will be in touch soon as i can, loadsa love your bessie mate always, Lauraxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi there, Sorry it's been so long since we've written. Belated happy new year. We have both had the flu and are now suffering with Seasonal Affective Disorder. Can't wait until February is over. Oh, Happy Valentines Day, hope you do something nice and romantic. Nigel and I have been so busy at work. We had forgotten how dark and dull it gets in the UK this time of year. We were in Geneva a few weeks ago visiting our old friends, we miss living over there. It was freezing snow but so light, sunny & safe. The following weekend we had a trip to Palma. We stayed at a really lovely hotel, we were the only guests in this huge hotel, actually it felt quite spooky! Still we had a really nice time. We went to a fantastic Japanese Restaurant the first night and a very traditional Spannish Restaurant the following night. Oh how we love our food. Our friend Christine joined us for the last night, we drank loads of red wine and then went onto Spannish brany, seemed like such a good idea! Oh never again, I'm too old to be dancing on bar tables! I'm working from home today, but somehow don't seem to be getting much done. New Zealand looks so lovely, I have a good friend you lives in Aukland. Can't wait to see your pictures of South Island, it's meant to be even more stunning. Take care of each other. Lots of Love Brian & Nigelxx
