Charlie & Jane Hey Bro and Ali. It all looks good. By the way 18 years ago the sun was shining in Airlee Beach. 18 years ago, my my! Gabe is awesome and a delight, sleeping right through now every night. Looking forward to hearing more travel news. LOL Charlie and Jane

Sophie and Co I have just spent the last hour (at work!!) looking at all the photos - they are amazing - hope we will be able to live up to the Perth standards when you get to Brisbane!! Not much sun in the Sunshine State at the moment though!! Love Soph, Jeff, Samuel and Haidee xx

Claire Egg Happy New Year to you both - hope you have a good one luv the Egglestons x

claire We wish you a meryy christmas, we wish you a merry christmas, we wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year!! please stop posted such fabulous pictures, making me very jealous. Martha loves the tigers and the hellyphantes ACMW xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Richard K Hello Mate. Thought I'd try and master this technology and send you a Christmas message. Got a shock when Claire showed me your photos. Is there some weird time/space effects going on out there? Your haircut seems to have reverted back 20 years to the mid-1980's. Whilst your gut has shot forward to a full middle-aged spread. I foresee no significant problems beating you at squash when you return. Anyway, have a good Christams, New Year etc, and enjoy the rest of your trip. Rich

Andrew Now in Malasia and phone not working! Will get a new sim when we get to Aus!

Alex We are now back in Thailand so +66860380947 is working again, hopefully for the rest of SE Asia! Rach I'm still laughing from your message, we thought of you when we were with the hellyphantees!

Rach Glad that you've finally met some hellyphantees!!!! (or elephants to anyone else reading this who is now under the impression that I'm 5 years old and can't spell). Hope all's going well, looks like you're still having an amazing time! x

Charlie & Jane Well he finally arrived and he and Jane are both now home. Jane is having a well earned rest but did have the chance to enjoy a couple of glasses of Bollie last night. We are now just making it all up as we go. Getting a sim card in Cambodia must be easier than getting a crying baby to stop.It was tough for Jane but she is in one piece. The whole feeling is awesome and the best way I can describe the feeling of parenthood is that it is indescribable.Stats: Gabriel John Westrope (Gabe to his mates) was born on Monday 19th November 2007 at 21.00 weighing 3.39 kg (7 lb 7 oz in English). He has two of everything he should have two of, one of everything he should have one of and an unlimited supply of body fluids. He is looking forward to meeting you both.Loads of love from ALL THREE of us. XXX

Louise You both look pretty healthy in your photos relaxing and enjoying yourselves in the sun. We had a fantastic frost over here last night so don't worry about us in the cold will you?! Looking forward to the next instalment. Keep on having fun x

claire reeve The current phone number for Thailand and hopefully rest of South East Asia: +66860380947 Killing field photo's very emotive

Cabbage Finally caught up with all the photos and blog entries - all looks awesome guys! PS Stroppy - you'll be glad to know you're still playing a major part in the WHC calendar for 2008!

Alex Hi, Don't get too excited by that no as we are now in Cambodia and can't get any reception, may have to buy new sims in each country! Andrew currently investigating...! Can't get a sim in Cambodia unless you are a Cambodian - Will try Laos when were are there in a couple of days! x
