glad that gaz and cate have arrived and kept you company in noosa along with sam, did he teach you to surf and show you all the best spots?

noosa is an amazing place but not a lot of internet cafes.frazer island is a bit the same.no phone coverage or computers anywhere just lots of bush lakes sand and dingoes.just watch the last one as they have been known to have a go at people and even take a few though if your on a proper tour then they will look after you.

all is well here.. just sitting down after diner and watching french rugby in welsh, benny and jt send there love!

i will sign off now and keep enjoying yourself.

say hello to your bro and cate

Hi Sara, its great that you are now all together and having a fab time. Look after each other and enjoy every moment as I am sure it will fly by. Give Cat a humungus hug for me, and Gareth can have one too if he likes!!! Missed Cat's phone call but tell her she is always with me anyway, and I can always remember her 'melanie' singing at the drop of a hat. Sending you loads of love and good luck on your adventures.

Hey ! Surf Sister

Thank you for my AMAZING birthday flowers!!! Still can't get over the fact that your card arrived on the exact day all the way from Australia. It was the highlight of my day!

Say Hi to Gaz. Have a fantastic time together. Hope you catch some big waves today.

Loads of love and 'hugaroos!'

Hi Sara,  Sat at my desk at work, got so much to do so thought I'd log on and catch up on your adventures.  Your adventures sound amazing.  Well done on passing your PADI.  Hope you really enjoy your time with Gareth.  Richard and Amy busy revising.  Andrew in USA, says he's working but enjoyed the white water rafting!!!  Uganda was simply an amazing experience and look forward to sharing stories with you when you get home.  Take care, ENJOY!  Liz xxxxx

Dear Sas

Hi So sorry to hear that Gazza has got an unmentionable disease and now can't make it. Hopefully the cranberry juice will clear it up.  Hopefully I can transfer the ticket to me. I have bought a new digital camera today ready for the trip. Your photos look great Ann would like a real koala as a mate for Jessie if that is OK. Hope you are still wearing the rugby world cup champions shirt everywhere you go. Off to Cardiff next weekend to watch six games of rugby league.Looking forward to seeing you soon. Love The Jones Gang xx

Right, well, thanks to you Sara Nicholes I have got absolutely NO housework done this morning! Got up early, decided not to go to Swansea to watch my husband play football against Jimmy Hughes' team  so that I could have a good clean but made the mistake of having a QUICK look at your blog and photos - I've been here ages!!

It looks and sounds absolutely fantastic however (apart from the tarantula incident) and I'm so pleased you're having such a wonderful time.

You're so brave doing all that diving when there's sharks around - you be careful!

Everything's fine here in Cardiff - we've got some beautiful weather too! Not much news really -  Dave having a huge absess on his pen ol  is about as exciting as it gets really. Quite funny though cos when he went to the doctors it was Alison Roberts who had to sort him out. Musn't laugh though cos it's very painful!

Anyway - I MUST start cleaning. I'm sure you'll continue to enjoy yourself.

Take care, love Catherine x

Congrats on passing your PADI!! What an amazing place to do it. Can't wait to hear about the Great Barrier Reef.

 Looking forward to diving with you when you come home. I hear Cornwall is supposed to be cool - but a little different to what you're seeing.

Now we just need to get Gaz and Jen diving!

Enjoy topping up the tan today. Beaches look amazing!

Have a brill time with Gaz. Find him a nice aussie sheila!!

Love ' n' kisses from Jon, Jen & Meg xx

Hi Sas - brilliant photos - can't believe how beautiful the beaches are.  Glad to see a kangaroo at last - could just about cope with the spiders but not those snakes!

Only 2 days until Gaz and Cate fly out - will be great fun to be together.

Much love Mum and Dad xx

great to read about your adventures that you have told me so much about and the photos look amazing... sydney is a wonderful place no wonder you didnt want to leave but glad you stopped at coffs harbour and sawtell where i was born.

loved your blog about the spider and i bet all the australians walked the other way when they found out you were a pom! [well we know your not!]

and the diving looks amazing, will be good when we can dive together. cant wait. though steve irwin would probably like to give it a miss.

had a good chat to Gaz yesterday and its great news that he's staying out longer with you and hopefully watching me play.

was good to play pool with him but dont ask him who won!

been a good couple of days and richard sends his love.

miss you sassy and lots of love

Dear Sara
Very sorry to hear about the spider nightmare. Hope you've recovered. Sounds as if the east coast is really good for wildlife. Hope the diving exam went well. Expect you can't wait for the others to join you.
Love Auntie Mary xxx

Hi Sara,

So u managed to drag yourself out of sydney eh?!! hope you're having fun up the east coast, don't forget to check out cheeky monkeys in byron bay. We're in ko samui at the moment, just chilling out in the sun.

 Get on the emails soon!

 Lots of love Anna and Ed xxxxxx
