Hi Danny - I've just spent a few minutes looking at the postcards .... and drooling!! Having read your messages it seems to me that your are either in 'dives', diving in the ocean or diving into some kind of alcoholic drink!! Glad to hear you're having such a great time. Looks like your mum has decided to be reminded of holidays, too - painting your bedroom sand!! We are both fine (considering advancing old age!!) We have a new Staffie puppy b**** called Ginny (after her great grandma) and she is giving us a lot of laughs just now ... Old Duke is acting as adoptive dad and he is so good with her, even when she has her teeth fastened in his cheek ... you'd really have to laugh if you could see their antics. We really enjoyed your mum and dad's party but, like Linda says, everyone missed you! Hope your trip continues to be such a good laugh .... but maybe you should try seeing some of the world in a sober state? Or maybe not!! Anyway, take care of yourself and we look forward to seeing the rest of the world through your eyes. Lots of love, Jan and Ray xx

Hi Aaron, just a quick message to assure you that I am receiving texts. Time differences are difficult, but if it helps, your texts arrive between 3 and 4 in the morning. I spoke to the diving centre last night, (our time, monday), they found the camera after searching all the trucks, and took the NZ address from me to post it on. Geoff spoke to Elaine, who is now expecting the parcel and three tanned and strapping handy-men!
love you.xxx

Hi you Gullivers, glad you're safely at stop no. 4. I must stop being predictable and start sending you messages on a day other than Saturday.
Let me dscribe reality for you - week-end, pouring with rain, England cricketers struggling to bowl out an Aussie, Al at the PC - revel in what you guys have.
My news is: they're replacing the fridge/freezer, and I have an interview next Wednesday for Passport Service - have to go to London, although the job would be based in Brum.
All for now, lots of love, always. XXXX

They have this 20litter chalange on wed at one of the local bars where they put 20 litters of vodka on the bar FREE and you have to drink it as fast as you can.

Hi Lads, just a note to let you know that we still think about, and miss you a lot....tried to ring you tonight Dan, got a reply, was left on hold and then I was cut off(wednesday sept 7th..1.30pm) your time. I will try again but we would like to know when would be the best time to ring you, when will you not be out getting bladdered? All is ok here, our party went really well on Saturday night, and loads of people came ....Patrick and Michelle send their love and hope you have a fantastic time, Dinah and Vic send their love as do most of the people at the party, including gran and grandad..The weather is still nice here at the moment, but it is getting dark early and there are signs of autumn.. but of course you will miss all that..I rang Jen the other night and she seems to be ok, she wants to come and see us when the baby arrives, I have told her she can stay for the weekend if she wishes, but I dont think she would be comfortable with that..what a great girl she is...you lucky sod. Anyway love to you all will ring again soon Love mum and dad xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
