Aww and who is going to provide my itchy feet fix now??

Have a safe and not too cramped journey home and drop us a line when you've recovered from the culture shock of being back in Blighty.

Hello Darlings! Well its nearly all over! What an exciting time you`ve both experienced over the last 16 months. So much to talk about. And we guess you`re now ready for your long flight home on Tuesday? Hope you have a super, safe journey. See you at Heathrow. All our love Mum and Dad xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx ps `Happy Christmas`. The turkey is ordered. Mum`s made the cake. Got the pudding and presents. Just need you two! xx

Hello you two,

Happy Birthday Su, sorry didn't know when it was!

Hope you had a good day!

It sound so good what you two doing out there and it sounds like full of good experience!

All good here, feeling like I've never been away and need to plan a next good trip soon.

Take care, and by chance let me know how you get on

love, Verena

Happy Birthday Su! And hi to you both!

Wow! Chiang Mai sounds wonderful! As does the whole holiday thing!

Stevie got his own cellphone last week (he broke mine, so now it is his). From the minute he got it, what he wanted to do was to "Text Su" and "Talk SuJo". And when we look at your pictures on the computer, he wants to "Email Su" or "Talk SuJo". Every such discussion ends up with the sad statement "SuJo gone plane". So you are still much loved here.

Cheers for now and keep having fun! HRS

Happy b'day Su, amazing how age creeps up on you - mind you where better a place to spend it :o)

Not sure which airports (if any!) you're using but most of the Asian ones have lovely little massage areas where you can get a cheap foot massage, sit in a comfy seat and drink tea while awaiting your flight - got to be better than those hard plastic chairs!

PS - Ami's card is sitting (still in envelope) on mantleshelf... good job I wasn't half asleep when it arrived - she gets most upset when she has to put things back.

Dear Suzanne and Joanne. Thank you so much for your `phone call this morning, and for the last `New Zealand` news.
