Dee and Gary in Cyprus Hi Katie and Matt You are both looking happy and well that is fantastic. It is sunny here in Cyprus too but we are now approaching our 'winter'. Enjoy Tas, we never got there as the weather turned, but you will see it in the best of the weather. We met some people from there when we were in Townsville and it sounds just divine. Guess we will have to come back! Oz is brilliant isn't it! I think they have got it absolutely right there. We are now both working , life is great here and we are setlling down, but we miss our travelling days. Enjoy every moment. Thinking of you. Take care! Lots of love Dee and Gary XXX

Deb Hi Guys It's my day off, Matt's at work and Zach's at nursery so I've got a few hours to chill and thought I'd catch up on what you've been doing. OMG it looks amazing. Keep waiting for a blog to say how awful it is, and that you've had enough and coming home - but I think I could be waiting a long time. Only kidding - so glad you're having the time of your lives. Pictures are great. I'm now preparing for an interview this afternoon - I called them yesterday on the off chance of any jobs, e-mailed my CV over yesterday pm, and got a call within 2 hours saying they want to see me today. All happening a bit quick so starting to panic. I'll let you know how I get on. Haven't been for an interview for 7.5 years so am a bit rusty. We're all good here - Zach is 3 in a couple of weeks - can't believe where the time's gone. Saying that - have you really been gone nearly 4 months already?! Love to you both x

Mark, Kath and Thomas Paul, that is a fair comment regarding the photos it does look lovely there. I don't know if you may have noticed though, it looks like Matt has let himself go, are they love handles I can see on some of those photos!!

Paul & Julie Hi me again. Can you please stop putting all those lovely pictures on the albums as Julie is driving me mad with how wonderful it is and can we go, so I have had to ban her from looking at them. Love you xxx Paul

Paul & Julie Hi hope all is well and you are still both madly in love and not arguing to much about who drinks to much! Ha Ha. We are all fine this end Ria is all loved up and Alex is still doing the long hair thing.Stuart is cutting my hair now and says hi.Still hasnt got any money or a women,no change there. Take care,love from us all.xxxx

Jem Hey you guys, Wow, wow and wow. Looks awesome out there. Views are amazing and you seem to be having loads of fun. Keep the updates coming. Miss you loads, Big hugs love, Jem xx

Deb Hi Guys It's great catching up with all the things you've been up to. The scenery looks breathtaking I particulary like the photos of Matt and the coconut - looks like you really bonded! Not much happening here, our builders were supposed to have finished yesterday but due to the wet, cold and generally crap weather, they are really behind. I'm now sulking and painting the kitchen to take my mind off the building site outide. Apart from that, we're all good. Love to you both and keep adding the photos. Deb x
