Alice Hey, where in the world are you? I can't get on to facebook at work from 9-5 so this is my only source of knowing what you're doing and where. Update me please xxx

Alice Hey dude, I hope you made the right decision and sacrificed those Ugg boots for the sailing- the Whitsundays are just stunning-you'll have a wicked time- I went on a boat called Siska and it was dead cheap- especially if you buy it in a package with something else- go to the Peter Pan travel agent in Airlie, they'll sort you out with something you can afford. Good to hear from you anyway, take care Al

Linda Hey Sarah, in hotel suffering today :-( so the time to look at all yr pics yes u do love sunsets lol they r all v v good, looks like u hav had an amazing time....cant say Im missing chilly old Woking though, friends yes. Well I will keep an eye out on yr blog for more updates, safe travelling xx

Alice Hey, I'm sorry to hear things haven't gone so well since Tom left- sounds like just bad luck with the hostels- I can give you some names if you've got any more stops left? I'm sure the farm stay will be fun anyway. I won't mention the NZ thing :( I'm sure you've made the right decision for you and can do it another time when you're together. What is you new arrival date? I want to come and meet you if I'm in the country and have a big night out (I'm counting on no parasites Mrs!) Much love, al xxxx

Big sis Hi elsarino, thanks for your message, hope you had a nice easter? did you get lots of eggs? probably more than me because i got none :-( but i did have some chocolate so it wasn't all bad! glad to hear all is well and it was lovely to talk to you this morn. love and hugs to everyone (you can go round and give everyone a hug from me if you like?) speak soon and love you a million, love your big sis Sarah x x x

elsarino hi guys i just put hope as how bye

elsarino hi guys how are you? where are you? what are you doing how all is well this is just a message to say happy easter love from ellie!!

Dad Nige Hey guys, Just had a quick look through your photos - impressive! Liked the sunsets, twin towers, eight apostles and writing in the sand a lot and also the ones of you two. Fancy meeting Ben on the beach, I think they all moved to out there years ago. If you pass 29 Wattle Avenue, Fairlight you must drop in on Rob and Ruth, Their two boys are about your age and Rob just joined up with me on facebook. Bye for now x x x

Sarah hey Al, cheers for the advice, went to night safari and loved it, actually quite liked KL!! and we both treated ourselves to some shopping (though only a little!!) need to wqrite a blog soon, but just to let everyone know we are safe and sound in sydney. travelled all over with a car and have just booked up for a week in manly, it was actually the only place we liked! bondi was busy, central was...busy and considering the first place we came to was the red light district of kings cross that didnt really appeal either!! but both love manly toms going to get a surf board this afternoon i hope!! we try to write a blog now on our travels down!! x x x

Alice hey guys, nearly at the 2 month mark, I can't believe it. It seems to be when everyone thinks about home but if you stick it out a few more weeks that'll fade again I promise- if you come home without seeing NZ I might have to hurt you..jokes yeah! Probably done the right thing spending more time in Thailand and less in Malaysia- you should try to go to the Perhentian islands though and a bit of shopping in KL(although this is largely a hole) and if you egt a chance to go to the Singapore Zoo- it's quite expensive but is a night zoo and only opens in the dark-it's brill. Bet you can't wait til Oz, so jealous, I'm in Derbyshire for 5 days where it's going to be snowing and crap- enjoy xxxx

Lisa Good to read that Thailand is still great!! how was it to be back??? cant wait to go there again. Im still in NZ and loving it, al though we have lots of rain..... People are so nice and the country is just beautiful! Let me know when youre here.. would be nice to have a little reunion! Love Lisa

mum/anne hello my lovelys, it was great to talk to you both on toms birthday even though you had possibly had to much of the falling down water!! I am looking forward to toms blog hope we won't have to wait to long! Hope to get my chicks soon but the hen house is not quite finished. Lily and Blossom are fine, although they could both do with a bath and haircut. Let us know when you get to oz, i'm sure your going to enjoy it there. Take care and keep safe love & hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxx

sarah hey pop! so glad about Wigan, will check details shortly, what gret news!! things have settled down since the full moon, i think less alcohol is the better option...(still miss you all tho )happy mothers day mum and Anne from both Tom and me! Alice i dont have a tattoo you nerd, (unless i wrote it wrong in the blog?) Thomas got a tattoo, angie got a tattoo and the rest of us girls got our ears pierced (oh the joys of peer pressure) so nothing too crazy and mine has nearly hea;ed up fine now. just in singapore in our first dorm of the trip, i got relegated to the bottom bunk, Tom wanted the top (which means i can use that on the plane tommorow to blag the window seat hopefully!!) i think im going on blog strike now until Tom writes one as im sure everyone would like to hear from him for a change so watch this space... speak soon all (apologies all round for the tipsy calls ... x x x)

Nige Hi Guys Well! - Thursday again, how time flies and I bet it's flying for the two of you too. Looking forward to your next blog (Tom!) now that you have moved on and yes it was nice to hear your voice over the wire on the night of the full moon (glad the full moon is only once a month though) Hope things have settled down ok and both enjoying what you went out there for. Good news on the Wigan front - I'll send details via email later. Love you both loads. Nige and Susie x x x

Kate Hi pretties! Hope you're both well. Was so lovely to talk to you both the other night, even if you were a little tipsy! So you're going to Oz then??? Really glad to hear it! Let me know when you're in Sydney and I'll get the guys to take you out. Lots of love xxx P.S. Lilly and Blossom are fine, no chicks yet...altho Mum has brought a 'how to look after chickens' book :s
