Hello!!!!

We have heard all abou the ash, lots of people are stuck here in NZ a few of them we knew from the Magic bus! Yes you would have had that we fly on the 18th of April but we changed our flights to what we thought was the 27th! Funny story thou, we were planning to go for one last trip with Bridie and head to Queenstown and get back on the 27th when we thouhgt we fly, to find out we were both wrong and we fly on the 25th! That would have been the 2nd flight we missed! x

So where are you now, I have it in my diary that you left for Fiji on Saturday,but not sure if that is correct. Things here are good, we are having some fabulous weather and have been down the beach hut a few times. We were thinking of taking a holiday but the news here is that NOBODY is flying anywhere,the volcanic ash cloud from Iceland has enter the atmostphere right above UK and is at 35,000ft which is airline area so all planes are grounded,it's almost been a week now and it looks like carrying on for another. Did you get back to Bridie's. Must go getting lunch,hope to chat soon,miss you,Lots of Love xxxx

Hi, well not much happening here, it has been lovely weather and we spent a few hours down at the beach hut on Saturday, dad has been doing some of the hike because that is in a couple of weeks time, he hasn't got lost yet! Simba is still being good and reports are now in from the neighbours that he is making himself known to all the other cats in the area, he's enjoying himself laying in the front window sunning himself. My mobile has finally packed up despite taking care of it so well, the microphone has gone on it so Barclays are going to send me a replacement. The gym is going well, we start at 7.30 now, it's a bit a struggle but it's worth it, we can go to the beach earlier. Hope the sun last for a few more weeks. take care love you. xxxx

We have just read your introduction tyo NZ and seen the pictures which we enjoyed looking at and glad you are eating well and the walks will do you good. ST. GEORGE'S DAY is three days before Grandads birthday on 25th so that will be easy for you to remember as it is on the 23rd APRIL. Not sure about the new hair styles though. Love from us both.

Well haven't you been upto some fun,I didn't realise you were going skydiving,but hey is that not a good thing I might have tried to talk you out of it,would you have listened,no!!!! still the photo's are good. How's your camera is it still broken,are we still chasing up canon to get it fixed. Not long till you get to Bridie's, what are you going to get up to,sounds as though she has been organising a few things,it will be nice to see her for a bit of home comforts, shame Jack had to go home early.Enjoy the partying. Love you, take care.xxxxxx

That's alright girl's, we will await whatever messages manage to get through, until then we will send email for you to pick up. Enjoy the activities and happy walking, you should be able to take some great photo's. Hope to chat soon, until then keep an eye on hotmail. Missed you today, needed someone to help me with my anniversary outfits for our posh hotel, will tell you more on hotmail. Take care, keep safe, very pleased to hear thet you have found your ring, now don't take it off again, he he. Love you. mummy xxxxxx

Hey all,

We are loving NZ and have settled into western life, we love spending our time walking around supermarkets and wanting to eat all the food, which we are doing at the moment!

Off to the Watimo (no idea how to spell) caves on Sunday and going to do some adventure activities there! Then it is make to saving pennies by walking the national parks!

Hope to update our blog shortly but we have to pay for internet now so have to keep it short and sweet!

Loves Hana & Becki

Hi little ones, hows NZ? I have been speaking to a lady who just came back, and she says it was superb. She also told me the best place to go, but..... who remembers names...! Love to Sally and Bridie. Hurry up and come home.
