Aunty Sarah, Dave, Natalie and Emily Hi Tiff, Glad t see you're ok. Seen the updated photos, the sunset over the Indian Ocean looked lovely. See you are back in Sydney and doing your final bit of sight seeing before you come home. Everything here is ok, bloody freezing, we had snow yesterday and today, not enough to pitch though, but it is really cold. Went to Emily's options night last night so she has decided what subjects she wants to take next year. Uncle Andrew is enjoying similar temperatures to you he is in Oman and Dubai and it is 75 degrees !!!!! Alright for some. Anyway, glad you are ok, enjoy your time left and see you soon. Take care and keep safe Aunty Sarah, Dave, Natalie and Emily xxxxxx####Ok, will do. Thanks, Will see you all very soon. Glad Unc Andrew is enjoying nice rather warmer temperatures than i!!LOL. Cheers, Tiffxx####

Mum and Dad Hi Tiff, Just to let you know we are freezing here in Paris. Loads of snow flurries. Bitterly cold! We`ve been up the Eiffel Tower, into Notre Dame, climbed the steps of the Sacre Coeur, up to St Denis and have seen the stained glass windows of the Saint Chapell. The tourist trail really. We fly back home tomorrow, to a hopefully warmer UK!! Looking forward to hearing your next installment when we speak - hopefully Sunday. Lots of love, Mum and Dad xxxx####Glad your having a good touristy time in Paris. If it makes you feel any better, I had to put on a jumper for the first time today in Melbourne, it was still 20deg in the city, but one hell of a nasty cold wind by the river. Yep, l have my phone on. Speak then Tiff xx####

Andy L Ello M8, just been looking at all your new pics, looks like you have been having a good time. Taking loads of pics that what I like to see. The beaches look amazing, seeing all the animals in the wild must have been soooooooo cool. Hope your getting on ok. Good luck on your 3 day trek accross aus!!! (Long way!) I see you were moaning your still white and not getting a tan, dont worry m8, when you get back you can always stand next to be and brag about your tan. C U Soon M8. Andy####Having a whale of a time mate. have got plenty more photos, but will put them on when i found a computer that isn't run on steam or too expensive. It was an experience too see all the animals in the wild, one i certainly wont forget.I duno bout feeling good mate, im only a few shades of darker white than you! In a bit mate. Chris####

aunty sarah Hey Tiff, just had a look at your updated photos they look really lovely, not so sure about you getting up close to that snake though!! just hope you could have moved faster than him. Good to see that you are now going a slightly darker shade of white, I could hardly recognise you!! the beaches over there look lovely and clean and so white. How did you enjoy your 3 day safari, I bet you had a brilliant time. Everybody here is ok, Dave is still taking the tablets and doing really well. Weather here is pretty awful, rain and wind (again) it seems to be all the time now, I've forgotten what the sun looks like. Thanks very much for your postcard it arrived Wednesday, your mum wants it when I have finished with it, because it has a KANGAROO on the front. So sad!! Anyway must away it is nearly past my bedtime. Take care and keep yourself safe. See you soon. Be in touch again soon. Lots of love Aunty Sarah, Dave, Natalie and Emily xxxxxxxxx ####Heya, yeh, i was pretty stunned myself when i saw it, in the wild as well!! It wouldn't have gone for me anyway, there wasn't any sun around, so they aren't active. Not changing colour that much. Got a little annoyed the other day when I met this Welsh lad, he was whiter than me when he came out here, and now hes so dark its untrue, and in only 2 weeks, sod. Anyway, good to hear Dave is still sticking to the pills. Weather is pretty warm in Perth, but nice and breezy so its not that bad, part from it's boring and theres absolutely nothing to do here part from go to a few shops. Worst part of my trip so far, but i can't win em all eh!? The 3 day safari thing was great, but a bit wierd sleeping with possoms everywhere climbing on top of everything and ants the size of your thumb nail and capable of carrying a peanut! crawling on the floor. Anyway, I hope Melbourne is a bit better. Speak soon. Take care Tiffxx####

Mum and Dad Hiya Tiff, How was the safari? Did you get to sleep under the stars? Hope you enjoyed the 4WD experience. We got your postcard a couple of days ago. I love the kangaroo on the front!! Hope you have a good flight and stay in Perth. Do you have any plans for when you get there? See you soon. Lots of love Mum and Dad xx####Trip was excellent, really enjoyed it. Wasn't too bad sleeping out under the stars, part from the possoms walking around and climbing on anything! Sent quite a few postcards, glad you recieved yours and Stephens. Havn't made plans for perth yet, just about to sort out my accomadation. Tiffxx####

Liz Cavill Hi Christopher Hope you don't mind me writing a message on your Message Board, but your Mum has told me so much about your fantastic trip to Australia. I've really enjoyed looking at your photos - you're obviously having a brilliant time. Thanks for all the postcards you have been sending to school on behalf of the Chick! Enjoy the rest of your trip. Best Wishes, Liz Cavill ####Hiya, Na thats fine, please feel free to leave me another! I am having the most fantastic time, got plenty more to see though, cant wait. Not a problem with the postcards, hope they sound ok, and not to repetative, ive tried to mix them up a bit. Cheers, Chris####
