mum Your last blog has really made me laugh-the water fight, especially attacking the pervy men sounded great. Not too keen on that island though-have now crossed it off my wish to visit list. But the bit i still don't get is where was Nikki all that time?? PS I've just noticed the videos-wobbling into Wobbly beach--a sight for sore eyes!

Heather ahh was so jealous to read about fraser island...i LOVED it there..plus ur diary is so much more interestingly written than mine...think i just wrote..big sand island..dingos..good time...or words to that effect..had definitely got bored of writing more quickly than you!!! By the way someone called Tibor has appeared in ur pics and diary..have i missed an explanation as to who he is?? Enjoy Thailand..the islands are pure paradise x.x.x.x.x

Jean Hello Shona - been a wee while since I logged on to check your progress, so I have now got 2 postings to read - GREAT!! Have printed them off, so that I can read them at my leisure. Do hope you are well and still enjoying yourself, although no doubt that will become obvious when I have read your 'blogs'. Please take care. Lots of Love as usual from 'Auntie' Jean. xxx PS: Had a good time the other week with your mum when I visited and I thought The Lion King was ACE!! xxx

hannah about time! haha, sounds like ur having a great time as usual, hope u manage to save some money soon! lots of love xxxxxxxx

mum What's this new website? Did you design it or do STA just do that? Most confusing trying to find my way around this new style. And where has your lovely pic of you two at Heathrow gone?Anyway, keep on with the travelling-looking forward to hearing more about Australia. Lots love XXX

Mum and Auntie Jean At last-some new photos-great! Loved the Santa Xmas photos and the RAINDEERS (!) I think you'll find it's REINDEER !!! Anyway, sunny Bondi looked fantastic compared to rainy London, although I think you were wearing a few too many clothes. And I [Jean] must say I quite fancy the Sand Man!! Good to see you are still restraining yourselves on the drinking front!! lots of love, JandJ

Heather Have been logging on daily with hope in my heart that you've updated the website....and that i can live my nomadic dreams vicariously through you once again.......could u perhaps send me an email when u eventually tear yourself away from enjoying yourself and get round to posting a few journal entries......i can't cope with the disappointment anymore........!!x.x

xX Flick Xx Hey Guys, just a quick 1. You know the pic with the rabbit sheering, er what is that about and why have they tied it up!!?? lol all a bit strange. Anywho, hope all is well. I do agree you really need to update the journal, how else are we supposed to know all of ur business. hahaha Kisses n Luv girls! P.S Nik an I took Jord n Sums, to the cinema to see Charlotte's web, was Summer's first time and it was soo nice....Just thought I'd share that completely random thing with ya!!! hahaha

Elly Girls, you have a lot to answer for! How long have we been home and we still can't stop calling each other dude. You're entirely responsible. Anyway, it looks and sounds as though you are having a wonderful time still, I am really quite jealous as I have been home in the crappy english climate forever and still have no job! Take care girls, Elly xxxx
