Hi Ray and Amy, Hope you don't mind an old biddy popping by to say hello!! It's great keeping up to
date with the messages and photos - (Marcus would say I am a nosy old woman)! Thought you would like
to know that it has been snowing here today but it hasn't settled. I was making a big batch of
rock cakes - watching the snow fall. Now doesn't that make you feel homesick. I think not!! I look forward
to seeing the photos of Aussie. Give my love to Sydney. John and I spent a great couple of years there.
We lived in Manly Vale and Dee Why (North Shore). If you look carefully you may even see a blue plaque saying that 'The Buggs were Here'!! Carry on having a great time. Take care. Bi4now Daphne xxxx

Hello, more photos are on now for Christchurch. Have loads more to put on of the whale watching and some horse trekking, but it takes ages so will save it for another day. Hope everyone is okay back home. On our way up to Auckland soon where we turn around and come back down the west coast of the North and South Islands.

Ray still has a bungy and skydive to do, everyone we meet seems to have done something crazy!.

Seen a few Lord of the Rings sights, it is very popular out here. Managing to stay sober most of the time. Saving ourselves for OZ!

Hello Amy and Ray Hope you are both o.k. now that you have safely arrived in New Zealand.
You should be able to get some less spicy food now Amy. Some good news your cheque arrived from
Diamond - at last! We are all o.k. including Frankie... Dad is still doing his 'Del Boy' impression at the market with Jack. We had lunch with Kay and Tony today - they send their love - and Charlie got 'man of the match'.Carry on having a great time and if you meet up with James tell Ray to hang on tight''
PS the new tenant who has taken your room seems very nice, pays the rent on time and dosn't mind the smell of fish
