Hi you two

Great to chat the other day, without the time delay too. I have just spoken to Luke as I wanted to check that I had given you Aarons correct No. but Luke told me that you had already met up for a drink or two!! How brilliant.

Back to work for me tomorrow - that word must seem like a distant memory for you both! We had a lovely sunny day Saturday so I dragged your Dad up ( not an easy feat following a Friday night post match analysis with his golf buddies) and we were down at Grandma and Grandads by 8.30 and in the sea by 10! Typically the rain was back by Sunday although we had a great day to finish of our hols. It all seems so strange to be going away on our own these days!!

Auntie Doris and Ken are off to Lorraines on Monday and looking forward to meeting up with you in Walnut Creek! Hopefully we shall see Nan over the weekend and help her to catch up with your blog although knowing your Nan she is probably ahead of us anyway.

Andrews room is coming along although we have to keep reminding him that it's not grand designs!! Hopefully it should be finished by next week ....that's if I can persuade your Dad to make just one more small trip to IKEA. If it were not for the meatballs I don't think I would stand a chance of getting him anywhere near there again!!

Shall talk soon, hope you have a safe and trouble free trip to Christchurch.

Love you, miss you take good care of each other Mum and Dad xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

P.S Don't forget that your Godfather has a big birthday coming up this weekend! Thought I had better tell you that he is trying to keep it low key just so you don't go making any big announcements on a public blog or any such thing !!!!!!?????

HI Matt & Rach.

I have been away from my computer nearly all week, I have missed following your wonderful journey. Its taken me over half an hour to catch up and read all your bits, sounds like a great holiday I'm glad you are now over your illness Matt, what are you like.

You do like danger Matt I see you didn't inform Mum that you where doing the jump, just as well she would have been shttttttttttttttt herself.

I will be seeing Nan on Monday and I will keep her updated with your journey, she loved it when she came over I might bring her home so she can read and look at all the photo's.

Time is going very quick this end of the world, how is it down their for you two, when you are away enjoying yourself the time slips by very quick. I don't know when you are both back.

I have just had a week of 5 grandchildren so if I don't make sense its because I'm brain dead.

Love to you both take care and enjoy.

Love from Kathy

why have they starred my t _ i_ t_ s and c_ o_ c_ k ? they arent rude are they?! sorry kids!

whassssup losers, i mean travellers. matt, i just want to say, it was not one hell of a thrashing you gave the arse scum, but a mere slap across the wrists. dont get too excited mate, thats your lot for the season. we got the spurs tomorrow, i look forward to abusive totts t*** getting wiped off the pitch. (and of course the bridge's sunday morning breakfast beforehand... you know you are missing it) your dad and i made it down the alvor sports bar last weekend to indulge in some footie... i had flashbacks of you chucking your fulham shirt at the screen in a real hissyfit at your man u pounding a couple of years back... and we introduced your friends to the water game when they all came round - ben and linda et al. all 17 of us in the pool at the end. i had a great time in portugal, apart from being buried in the sand and made to look like an octopus (only after mum came over and realised that megans attempt at a jellyfish made me look like i had a rather large c*** inbetween my legs...no wonder that portuguese man came over and laughed at me)

rach, hope all well with you and you're not too bored of matt yet, i know its hard but you can make it... just think of home and nice, interesting people. xx

love to you both you smelly travellers, i can smell you from here. find some decent showering facilities. JJ Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

What did i tell you about your writing style! plain english please (put those GCSE English grades to good use) congrats once angain for AWESOME (i am in oz!) results, i didnt doubt you for a second.

About the boats! i decided that i wasn't gona miss out on the Great Barrier Reef and Whitsundays (after all who knows when im next gona be in Australia, firstly i wud need a job!) so iv been wearing the sexy wristbands and takin sea sickness pills and so far the sick bag has remained empty (although iv been lookin very green at times!).

Hope everything goes ok at sixth form, esp your geography lessons (its in ur blood!)

I look forward to wearing your clothes when i get home, gettin bored of my limited selection (treated myself to a 5 pound jumper in sydney, its Crazy! but its clean!)

I wouldnt worry about dieting, the pounds are piling on (mcdonalds, subway, frapps, chips with everything, cookies) well what else is there to do on a 9 hr coach journey, but sleep and eat!

Great Ocean Road tomorrow, hopefully il see my first koala (last must see animal of the trip to go before we leave oz on weds)

I look forward to the next episode

Missin everyone loads

Dear Rach and Matt Have just managed to catch up with blog, photos etc. Internet not working properly as ususal - Tor has been on line!! Photos look fantastic - very brave Matt. I would have been down with Rach looking up not down!!

Just got back from Ilfracombe, Devon weather not so good but at least dry. We all had a great time and laughed the whole weekend. Hotel was like Fawlty Towers and comparisons were made on the state of the bathrooms/bedrooms. Grandad reckoned his was a cupboard! Jean bought me some ear plugs (to shut out the snoring) but I managed to get to sleep first most nights, you know I am a lightweight! Our room was like a sauna as we were over the kitchen - we could let everyone know what was on the menu prior to dinner!! We ate and drank our way through the weekend so now back to reality and work tomorrow! The questionnaires on the Hotel was an art form of their own - definitely neede refurbing but the friendly staff made up for it.

Tor was on her own for the weekend - scary stuff. But when I rang she said she felt she had to be sensible while I wasn't there! Alfie got her up at 5 o/c one morning he was not in her best books!!! Well she is off to 6th Form soon - God help them! Perhaps I can train him to get her up for school?

Dad still in Qatar - not so sure he is enjoying the heat! If only we could have some of it here.

Have you reached Sydney (civilisation) yet? Enjoy the city and let me know how you both are? Lots of love Mum xxx
