Have a cracking Chrimbo & New Year, Chris C

Hello there! Well, I took the hint too and also the opportunity it being a quiet day here, to post you a little Christmas and New Year message as it's my last day in the office...hurrah!
So, Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year wherever you might be over the festive period (exotic location i think?) and i'll look forward to seeing you in New York in January! I can't wait!!
Have a great time, lots of love and see you soon, Kerry xxxxxxx

Hi Shellee & Nathan, cant believe all the places you have been, how time flys. Not much changed here apart from JC going off on some project for the Government so Barry Ward is now picked up his role. Have a great Christmas and New Year and let me know of any places to visit as I am over in Feb for 12 days in the Bahamas and then 10 in Orlando. All the best Keith & Fiona

Hello - Sounds like you had loads of fun with Lynds. Hope you both have a brilliant christmas cruising around and that the New Year brings you everything you wish for!!!

Lots of Love Em xx

Hello there - Got your hint about sending messages so here it is. Just had a quick look at the most recent pictures and I have to say Shellee that you look really lovely, liking your hair like that. Nathan of course you look as handsome as ever, also Shellee liked your stinky top, very cool. Everything here is very well. We are off to Brum for Christmas and I am going to watch my first ever football match on Boxing Day, the Blues against Middlesborough, so am looking forward to that.

Looks like you are having a lovely time in sunny Califonia, Hannah seems to have changed so much since your wedding, she is looking very sophisticated.

Anyway must head off as I need to pop out this lunchtime to get a few bits as I am off to York next week for a few days on a training course.

Take Care

Lots of Love xxx

Hi peeps, finally got 5 mins to check out the website again - loads of pictures to see! I'm impressed with the pumpkin carving too - I left Trev to that this year, if only to save my fingers! Things are ticking along nicely back here, work is really busy now we heading into the Christmas period (HOW SCARY IS THAT!) and me and Trev are looking at the housing market.... again - good news is prices are coming down! woohoo. Hope you are both well, you look it!! Lots of love Em x p.s that Charlie dog is so cute!!

Hi Carperinia-pals!
Miss you alot, (and the four or five gin-tonic we had every night with you).... but the Swedish bag-in-box is really nice so we problably survive.....

Speaking about Snazzy...... some of the clothes we made in Vietnam, that (in Vietnam) was really nice, became a bit "snazzy" when you wear them in Swedish daylight..but if you wear them in dark and smooky places they are ok ;-)....

take care.... and don´t eat any yellow snow...

Hi guys, lovely country, great photos.

Just wondered if you knew that the N.Z. Kea bird is related to the Australian Kee bird. They live in the cold and call out "kee-rist it's cold"

Enjoy your boarding.

Love Janis

PS Had a lovely evening with Maggie and Dave last night. Mags cooked up a storm, delicious as always.

Hi there Shellee and Nathan,
I am really enjoying following your travels. I am thrilled to hear about New Zealand, I have wonderful memories of my month there many years ago.
Are you staying in Youth Hostels, because I think they are now for any age group. Check it out if you haven't, great way to learn about great things to see in the area and since it is the off season it should provide at least some privacy.
Put the National Parks at Nelson on your must do list. I didn't get there myself but I saw it on tele, just fantastic, well the whole country is really.
Looking forward to your visit to California and having you stay with us and tell us all your stories over a few drinks.
Lots of love, enjoy
Janis, Geoff, Alex and Christopher

Hi pals - wow looking at your Singapore pictures brings back some memories, I thought the Polar bear was the best bit too, the Baboons were scary - just booting the babies out of the way to get the bananas! Night Safari was brilliant too, Karen and I were the first to walk down a path and straight into a massive cobweb! Most disturbing!!! Karen screamed, mine was more silent terror. Anyway have fun in NZ glad to hear your VISAS are all yours, speak soon. Em xxxx

Shellee & Nath, happy first wedding annivesary. How quickly time has flown! You two seem to be having a great adventure.
