kelly happy new year darlin!! seems like you had an adventurous one too, i spent the hour leading up to midnight searching for a village in rural spain that had its litle square set up with grape bags... we wanted a traditional new year, and were told that some villages give out 12 grapes for the strokes of 12, which you have to cram in before the new year!! we found one, it was hilarious, and we even got free champers!! enjoy the beaches up north there, much love k x x x

Chris Merry Christmas Ange & Al! Have a cracking one! Chris & the Salisbury house possie x p.s Robbie decided not to sell the house... for now.

Uncle Paul Gday Angela, It's your Uncle Paul. Your mum has pointed me in the direction of your website and I couldn't not send you a message. Great to see you're in Sydney now. I had such a good time out in Oz back then before you were born. I also had a Ford falcon ... Hope its not the same one :-) .. with a bull bar and a really cool casette deck. If you have time check out the Student Prince pub on Paramatta road and see if they still have Jon and Vangelis as no 61 on the jukebox. I expect you'll be making a visit to the outback, and sleeping under the stars at some point. I'm green with envy. Watch out for the wombats burrows when you're driving on those roads. Its raining back here and we had a 'mini tornado' up the road last week. Still it'll be Christmas soon..... Have a very merry one..

Angela Hey all, How blonde am I, I just found this on my site....so sorry i havn't replyed to anyone!!!!!! I'm not sure i'm supposed to post messages on this either but what the hey!!!! Good to hear from everyone glad people are checking out the site, i know there are loads of pics and not many journal entries but i get bored of typing!! Hope everyone is good, I'm having the best time, New Zeland is just amazing!!!!

kelly hey love! being a bit rubbish with the emails, sorry! thought about you yesterday, as it was bonfire night, i was reminising about the mulled wine drunken-ness of the party kate and i had a few years ago. Anyway, just wanted to say hi, and even though i might be very green and envious, you're not forgotten! hope your having loads of fun, k x x x

Jaynington o and im planning to move to bristol in jan!!

Jaynington Hi ang, All sounds great, especially glow warms! and happy birthday al!

salisbury chris Hey ange, it sounds like you're havin a fab time & that everyone is getting on together. Pretty jealous of the whole journal so far especially finding your own private waterfall (i'm sure they had something like that in 'The Beach' before it all went Pete Tong!). Have you got to talking/drinking much with the locals? Salisbury is much the same - the house is still up for sale and Robbie still hasn't fixed the bathroom towel rail... or the kitchen lights... or anything else! But he's on it... We've got a new housemate, Will, but it'll always be Ange's room. Your folks are putting me up for the night before the Great North Run, of which i'm hugely grateful, so by the time i return to Salisbury i'll be speaking reet proper Geordie like. Take care & say hey to Al from us.
