Home Have a safe journey Tom. We can't wait to see you in the morning!!!! We heard 'Homeward Bound' on the radio this morning which was a bit emotional.....!!! Loads of love Mum, Dad, George and Murphy xxxxxxx

George Hey Tom. Looking foward to you coming back and staying with you at uni! see you soon. George

Lyndsay Hi Tom! Lynne and I got your email today - great to hear from you! Have tried to catch up on your website and have nearly got through a bottle of wine looking at it (any excuse I know hahahahahah!) You have done so much and look like the fun has been plentiful along the way...... Can't believe we've been home 5 months and bet you can't believe you're nearing the end of your trip too??? Haven't heard from Harry since we left so he's in for a serious butt kicking when we catch up with him!!! Can't wait til you're back in the UK and we can all catch up over what is sure to be plenty of "cheeky sociables" and Lynne and I can show you our new dance moves hahahahahah! Have a weekend in Dublin to fill you in on too (I can almost hear you sigh from over there!!!) Stay safe and keep having fun. We've missed you too Wills, stay in touch and see ya soon babe xxx

Lynne Hi honey this is the first time I've looked on your website and I'm very impressed by all the new photo albums and destinations. I can see I'll be spending a big part of work tomorrow trawling through them all. Send me an email soon with all your news and gossip. It must feel strange being on the final stage of your travels but you've certainly made the most of your year and seem to have grown up so much in confidence and nature since the shy 18 year old we met in Sydney. Oh god I do sound like your mother hahaha...... Same old, same old for us - enjoying the sun in London, drinking too much, partying too much, still obsessed with Irish men! I can see you rolling your eyes at that one haha..... Anyway I'm off to the gym (hmmm!) email me soon take care ;-) xx

shep More amazing photos. Perhaps you should become a geography teacher? (No, I'm not serious on that!) Enjoy the States. A family friend of ours is also on Camp America....Barry Lynch...he is your height. blonder than you, and he's in a Jewish summer camp so he sticks out like a sore thumb. 3 weeks of school to go now for us. Exams have finished so your mum can relax a bit. George came up for year 8 visit day last week and tonight is meet the tutor; remember that for you 6 years ago?! Kate has just started her business placement year, working for Heinz (as in baked beans) in west London; Sam is doing his summer job again in London for a lawyer's firm. Continue having fun...I'm sure you will.

Mum, Dad and George HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOM ! Hope you don't miss us too much on your birthday and still manage to have a good time !! An all-night techno rave followed by 2 nights in Miami (if you catch the plane!) - should I be worrying a little?? Seriously, have a great time and stay safe. The photos are great by the way. Loads of love, Mum Dad and George xxxxxxxxxx
