hey guys, just got back from my fraser island camping trip and it was one of the best times i've had travelling!!! My group of 11 people were fantastic and we all got on so well we're now like a family. Had a few scary moments with Dingo's. I came out of my tent on the first night and caught on staring right at me so I ignored all th advice and just ran away. Anyway, I was absolutely filthy and its so nice to come back to showers and toilets. What a wicked 3 days! Am missing BB though, I'm not going to be back til right at th end so I'll probably be left out of all the in-jokes. Keep the messages pouring in. Love you all xxx

Hey dude, oh my goodness my revision has gone rite out the window, big bro is unreal, Pete the one with tourettes is so funny, he just randomly shouts stuff and it isnt just verbal he also moves really involuntarily which is just so amusing...PETE TO WIN!!!theres also a guy in there who in his own words calls himself a 'paki poof', who insists on touching everyone and already wants to leave, hes going to get so much stick when he leaves, he's awful and i actually despise him!! a couple of hotties in there too which makes a change, there is also a couple of very stuck up 'wannabe footballer wives' aswell, not cool. im glad u fancy going to those places dude, may overlap with where u have already been a little but like u say we'll defo sort something out! anyway speak soon, take care x x x

Hi Honey, Glad you are feeling good again and do hope you don't become a dingo's dinner!Sounds as though you are far better off without Miranda, meeting lots of new people. Sorry I missed you today but was busy moving Granny, all a bit emotional but sorted now hopefully. Big Brother has started again and its going to be a good one I think, one of the housemates, there are 14, has tourettes (don't think thats spelt right) and keeps shouting out " w***er" which is really very funny.DAvina is pregnant AGAIN. Whilst on the tv theme just watched the last Shipwrecked and hate to say I told you so but Sharks won. They are now looking for next years cast (are you interested?) Bank Holiday next weekend, hurrah, let's hope the gail force winds and rain die down by then and it gets a bit warmer (haha I hear you laugh). All a bit of a joke considering we already have a hose pipe ban, it hasn't stopped raiining since! Anyway alls well here. Love you lots. We will call again next SATURDAY, Mum.

hey guys, oh my god sarah, sometimes i think your in my brain-my next trip will definately be south america and africa (I'd like to do 3 months in each) but I have no idea when i'm going to be able to afford to do all this-i might have to work in the real world for a while until I've paid my debts etc.. but maybe we could make something work. I'm glad my site is going down well with my fans-however, some people I've noticed are being slack with their messages so either they've forgotton me or have nothing interesting at home to report on. off to fraser island doing the 4x4 self drive and camping. Met some nice guys in my room so hopefully i can get in a group with them?? Anyway, don't work too hard with all that revision, i've told yopu about the dangers of the library. As for you Jenny, you definately have to go to Laos, from what I've heard its amazing and I can't wait. Oh yeah, and Oppie(a chelsea supporter I met in Airlie) is going to fly into Singapore at the same time as me so we can do a month or so of travelling together, yey!!!

Jenny
Hey stinky, how goes it?? I just thought I'd check in, its only three weeks and one day til i go home, how crazy is that???! Thailand has really picked up in my expectations and I'm having a really good time (mainly doing nothing). I also might be going to Malaysia or Laos just quickly with my friend Gemma which should be cool. Hope all's well with you.
Alice
hey guys, hope everyone is coping with all the exam stress, I really do sympathise with how horrid it is but it will all be over soon and you've got that epic summer holiday ahead!! I've changed my plans a bit coz the bus I was on to Bundaberg broke down 3 times and we were stranded for 3 hours waiting for an engineer. I didn't want to get to Bundaberg at 1am so I'm now in Rockhampton where I checked in with some other people off the bus-it wasn't exactly the plan but I think it was a wiser option! AND I GOT MY PHONE SORTED-had to buy a new very expensive charger but once I've powered it up I'l be able to text again, yey.
Mum
Hi darling, I am very relieved that the sailing experience went well, you had me nearly as worried as you were on Sunday. You sound a lot more cheery now which is good. Perhaps Dad's boat buying project might get a little more support now you are obviously keen! Just Jack and me left as the land lubbers. Bet your glad when you read all these messages that you aren't still taking exams, this time last year all these travels were only a dream. Dad is off to Berlin tomorrow, he is becoming quite the jet setter again. Granny is moving home on Saturday, we have managed to get her into a very nice place in Walton, she isn't very keen at the moment, but seems quite resigned to it, as she knows she can't live on her own anymore. Bit sad but it could mean she has a much more comfortable life from now on. She always asks after you, though she does get a bit confused about exactly where you are, mind you she isn't alone there. We are all OK and the garden is looking amazing, all the rhodies and trees have come out at once this year as it was a very late cold spring. The ducks are back, damn them. We spent a wonderful weekend clearing out the garage and have come across loads of your old toys which, rather than throwing away, are now being stored in the loft. We will try to call you on Sunday but won't panic if we can't get through. Perhaps you could call us when you get your phone sorted. In the meantime keep us posted on here. Lots of love. Mum & Dad.

hey alice. I'm not going to ask how life is, cos ive been reading all about it (it's my favourite site at the moment). My life is a bit hectic right now. got my first exam on thursday (the first of five). since dad's not updated u on chelsea recently i thought i would do the honours: We finally got the Germany captain Michael Ballack to sign on monday, with shevchenko likely to be next to join. I wrote my first journalistic column for a chelsea news site - hope they want more from me. very exciting. Manchester still rules, but no-one is sure whether it will rain or shine each day: its very strange this mancky weather. Glad you didnt have a shocker on the boat like i did in antiga (u remember - i was green AND blue) hehe love you lots
Sarah

hey guys, just got back from my 2 days sailing and I survived without a single episode of vomitting, yey! Actually really enjoyed it which I never thought I'd say about a boat trip. I did take some very strong sickness tablets but I enjoyed the whole experience, especially getting off to snorkel int he middle of the ocean and visiting the breathtaking Whitehaven beach. Unfortunately my phone battery is very nearly dead and I won't have any way of contacting except through emails until I can buy a charger or new phone, sorry chaps. Must congratulate Miranda on her engagement, I 'm not sure if you read this but my emails don't seem to be getting to you, i hope your enjoying yourself. I go to Bundaberg tommorrow on Vicki's suggestion and then to Rainbow Beach for Fraser island so I'll keep this up to date if I can and hopefully get my photos on here too. Been away over 2 months now and missing you lot, take care xxx
