Ladies, Thanks for putting the pictures on. Nice burn mark Kirst!! I hope you will be whacking the turkey on the barbie on Xmas Day. Sounds like the hostel is a bit mental. I hope its not too bad. Its freezing here by the way so I'm sure that will make you feel good!! I'll be raising a glass to you both on Monday. Love G

Hi Girls, Great to see all the new photos! :) It must have taken you aaaaaaages to put them up. Some are quite outstanding and will be great memory joggers when you come to write up your 'homework' ! What memories you will have! Are those hot silencer marks on your arms and legs?......ouch! We look forward to seeing and reading more.......in between you having a holiday! :) Mum and Dad from Ferndown

Hi Julie and Kirsty, Hope everything going well down under. The new pictures are great, nice to see you taking exploiting child labour in sweat shops for the sake of some new threads. Just wanted to wish you a merry christmas, i'm off to the north today and so won't be able to check up on you. So have a great time, hope you aren't pining for us in freezing fog-bound blighty! Lots of love Susan, Oli and Lara

Mum and I were delighted (AND relieved) to hear that you made it to Cindy in one piece. I hope that you have a great time in Aussie and are not too affected by the drought. (it said on the TV news last night that some areas were suffering a bit) We look forward to seeing more words and photos ......but more important than that....enjoy yourselves!! :) Mum and Dad at Ferndown

Dear Kirsty & Julie, No updates recently! I suppose that you are having too much of a good time, it will be good to hear about your progress on to Oz. Just a few words to wish you a Merry Christmas, a few days early, but it's the thought that counts. Gregg can't wait to be with you. Thank you for your postcard from Thailand. Lots of love and keep yourselves safe Jan & Bob xxxxxxxx

Hi Kirsty Hope you are okay. Just incase you did not get the text message we sent out. Simon and i had a baby boy on 11th December at 8.25am and we have named him Will James Coster and he weighed 8lb 15oz. He is beautiful and we are very proud. Thanks for calling me as well, it was a great suprise. xx

Hi Girls, You'll soon be wending your way to Cindy Australia. I hope you have a grate trip....at least it's not as harduous as going non-stop from the good 'ole UK. I trust that the 'triumph of western civilisation and engineering' (aircraft) carries you safely to your destination :) We are all rooting for you here. I'm delighted to see that Opa has joined the posting club.....good going!!! :) Not many, of Opa's generation, could do it. Let's here from you soon. Love from Ferndown.

Hallo Julie and Kirsty, Have already send you a message, but this one may be a bit different. You are both seeing a lot of this planet earth and quite a big job every-day to be up and going to again different places !! You two must have taken over a hundred pistures already I think. Anyway, enjoy every minute, this may only happen once in a life-time!! Love from all of us here in Holland, Julie, lots of love, also for Kristy!! XXXX

Ladies, Isn't about time you updated this website. Well done on avoiding the typhoons!! I wasn't worried at all!! Great to see Kirst's ma and pa last week. The Wings winning made it even better. Anyway must dash off to footy. Enjoy the tunnels tomorrow. Love G xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi there, It was good to hear that you'd survived the last week. I just love the photo of the shrunken head in the cleft stick. Can't wait to see what else you've got. :) JD

Whoops, try again... as i was saying gutted to have missed your call on sat, my bloody phone was on silent! Never find. Can't wait for the next installment, what will you two get up to next i wonder! Look after yourselves. Lots of love, Sarah.xxx
