Hi, this is Maverick, Ro's dog, also known as Mav & Snoop Dog!

I am looking forward to meeting you both when you return to Australia tomorrow!!! I am now a big boy and weigh 25kg!

I'm black and white like Ro's car.
Can't wait to meet you both, Rowie has told me so much about you guys.

It's a helmet video camera that is also water proof (for snowboarding, MTB and car racing etc). You'll see it in action next year!

Hey Guys! It's great to get an update - especially one Sam's birthday surprise - between the cake, how happy you guys look, all the drinking, and the beautiful looking water (that you can actually swim in!)...we want to just come over and join you! Counting down (7 weeks and one day) until we set off on holidays and hopefully to catch up with you guys as well...

Love Mischa

PS - Our letterbox was frozen closed this morning...yes, frozen closed - the frost on the grass was solid white, and everything was so sparkly with ice!

hey hey kids....the photos are AMAZING, the stories are fab....looks like your having a really s*** time ;-P

Good to see you are updating your blog, I guess it is hard to find internet acces, I have been hanging for an email.

Lots of Love

Hey Sammy!

I took Gizmo to the new Morewell Hill Climb track, it's called Haunted Hills. An awesome tight little 1 minute circuit.
I got bumper cam footage of some drifting action in the MR2. Check it out on facebook:

BTW - how come you guys haven't updated for ages? ePC still working?

Happy Birthday Mulebags!

Dirty 30s!!! Look out! I think that means you don't have to wash your clothes now for 8 days instead of 4!! haha... or actually you probably don't even bother washing clothes these days, you can just buy another t-shirt with Cheese on it for a dollar or something!!! haha...

Congrats to your loving family who managed to surprise the daylights out of you! Sounds like the mission was very successful.

Anyway, crack a beer for me, today, yesterday and tomorrow! (One time for each decade!!!)

Take care, and give Nikki a hug from the Melbourne crew.
