Hi Thank you for the wonderful photos of my boys, it was a treat for me to see them, Ricard is not good at sending pics. I am pleased you had a good time with them, but sorry about the work; I blame his mother not bringing him up right!!!!!
I've just stored 'my boys' pictures so I can keep them.
Enjoy your trip and come home safely
Love A Kath & U Malcolm

Hi, I have only just managed to get onto your site, I don't know what I was doing wrong. You seem to be having a wonderful time I am really pleased for you both. It sounds just like my brother making you do some work, we were offered free board and loading for gardening duties too!!! all I can say is MUGS. I bet there home is really huge and beautiful isn't it. They haven't got round to sending me any photos yet (mind you I never got any of the last until it went onto the market). They seemed to enjoy seeing you anyway, Richard said it was really strange meeting you as you had not met for 15yrs!! We are supposed to be going camping today to the Dales, it is pouring down, we got washed off our last camp because of rain too. Thanks very much for all the postcards, Matt gets very excited when they come. Have a wonderful time. All our love

Hi Both

Thought i'd send a mess before i break up me jollies.

We keep saying saying to Spencer "are you going on an plane" he says "yeah" but wait til he sees one for real , his eyes are gona be so big..... just want to be there now! Been packing my case, well trying, its hard to pack when you have a little boy sitting in it taking the clothes out i have just put in!!!

Walt is having Spencer the next two nights so i should be all done for Sat....

Going to the gym on the nites i dont have Spencer, its really strange not having him all the time. I forget sometimes and panic thinking where is he.

I got ya email, i will do it when i return from holidays.

Hope ya both well, ill txt when am away.

take care xx

Hi guys. Just wanted to say we really enjoyed catching up with you both and showing you a bit of our life in toowoomba. Hope that you enjoy the rest of your time in australia and we look forward to catching up again soon - hopefully on safari in south africa!

Jacob is right life is pretty easy when you're a baby, it all changes when you're two though! Despite my loudest efforts of screaming and stamping my feet it is much harder to attract attention these days. I spend most of my time chasing my friends Cherry and Felix or repairing damaged areas with my tool kit. I do also like to do some 'relaxin' watching Postman Pat or Bob.
Thank you very much for the lovely Kiwi and T-Shirt. I was a bit apprehensive of that long beeked animal at first but have come to realise he's actually a friendly little fella whose mixing well with my other teddies.
Hope all is well with you two, Daddy had a BBQ at the weekend which was fun and I met my Great Auntie June and Great Uncle Keith. Take Care Zx

Thank you very much for my lovely fluffy New Zealand Lamb, he's very soft to cuddle. I hope you're enjoying yourselves in your camper van.
I'm finding life actually pretty easy. I've realised all you need to do is cry and it becomes dinner time, no matter what time of day! I am particularly partial to a snack at about 2am and 5am. The rest of the day I enjoy sleeping and resting and if I want a cuddle I just start to whine and grizzle. Take care JCx

Hello you two

Sounds like you are having a wonderful time, am impressed at the way you climbed Sydney Harbour without the aid of a safety net.

Have rang the hotel le belmont but they do not have any details of News Years meals at restaurants, they will have this for the end of October. I will ring back then. I have changed the reservation at the hotel to include Sarah but I do not know if she will be able to get the time off.

Spencer is gorgeous.

No info about buying house yet will e mail or talk to you about the finer details.

Hi there, glad to see as usual your having such a great time. Sounds like Sydney is as exciting as it looks on TV. Sorry I missed your call yesterday twice, was at the vets in the morning and doctors in the afternoon!!
Zack had a great birthday, with loads of presents. We've got more toys than toys r us now! Zack can tell you how old he is now, but was mainly interested in the cake!
Jacob is settling down well now and only wakes about twice a night which is really good. Two boys on your own is quite a handful though, but Emily is coping really well.
Not doing anything for my birthday today, but am having a barbie on sunday.
Man U are trying to sign Owen Hargreaves for £13m!! Liverpool just signed Durk Kuyt for £10m. Premiership starts tomorrow.
Take care love all.

Thinking about getting your new campervan, the Blue Mountains sound very romantic so I shall be looking forward to pictures of those. Sounds as if you have enjoyed Sydney, did you know that Admiral Phillip, who supposedly founded the colony in Sydney comes from Bathampton. ( I am full of useful? information)
I have spent my afternoon in The George today with Celia, a great time had by all! Enjoy the new horizons.

Hi Sim & Jim

Auzzie sounds nice, (lots of pizza being ate!!!)

One of my store managers has sent me a £50 voucher for helping him out (very nice eh!) i can spend it in lots of shops so think going to treat my self.

Walt said he would have Spencer over new year if i wanted to come and meet you both in Paris but just trying to find out if i can get the time off work.... Linda might come too.......
