To Beth and Andy, hope you had a cracking christmas and a bloody good new year.  Hope the trip is going well and that you are looking after yourselves. I look forward to seeing you when you return for dinner to hear all the travelling news. lots of love Nan Bren xxxxx

YO!!!

It's the voice of Christmas past!

Hope you guys are all tanned and well. So sorry its taken this long to bloody communicate, ive been up to my eyeballs in it. Got a new job working at Simpsons brothers work in Oval and im loving it. Last day of work for me on friday so off to roast the turkey!

Going to Richards night in Hertford tomorrow to give some support along with watching James do a DJ set! Ha would you believe it?! Those target  250 pones finished today for crimbo, swines the lot of em.

Good to see your still growing your locks damski, I didnt recognise your head.....Thought you were some bogun Aussie jumping in the shots! Im sure you guys are living it up down under & i expect a phone call over the Christmas break to catch up on things. I actually miss you guys HEAPS so keep in touch and i hope to hear from you soon. 

"We wish you a merry christmas, we wish you a merry christmas, We wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year"

We would go and sing the second verse for you all but if you are imagining mine and andys singing voices at the moment one verse is plenty enough!

As of tomorrow both Andy and I finish work for two weeks and then its all systems go, we have our friends Lisa and Mike arriving then Andy and I have volunteered to cook an xmas meal on saturday for 16 of our friends.....god knows what we have let ourselves in for but I'm sure one of us will end up wearing the turkey if it gets too heated in the kitchen!  Xmas Day we fly to Melbourne then its the Ashes on Boxing day for what is worth! We then plan to spend a few days in Melbourne then its back on the road back to Sydney in time for the New Years festivities of Basment Jaxx on Bondi Beach!

We hope that you all have a great Christmas and New Year and both Andy and I both agree (at least on one thing) that its not quite the same here.....We miss you all and we will be sure to have a toast over the Barbie for you all!!!

LOts and lots of love and Christmas Cheer.........we shall see you again in 2007!

Over and out.........Beth and Andy x 

Yes finally getting to see Beth &Andy in their natural habitat. I think the world had begun to morn the loss of the party Diva herself. Phheww though you my have gone all spirtual on me. Mum is expecting you so if you need somewhere to stay she has a granny flat ajacent to the house so it would be like your own pad when you venture over to Perth.

I'm gutting you will be leaving Oz before we get there!!! Will be hitting Sydney April at the earliest. Still i'm not ruleing out Thailand we have quite a few hotels there and i have told my boss i'm more than happy to do the next batch of health and safety audits. Got a funny feeling Vietnam has my name on it though, Works fine think i just p*****d a few of the big wigs off...................

Love to you both.

G'day Possums!

Its been awhile since we last touched base so we thought it was about time we dragged ourselves away from the bar and send out a little update.

We've had a cracking couple of months so far with some top weekends, we were lucky enough to see U2 after andy practically sold his soul for tickets and I have to say it was well worth it, the show was awesome and the atomos was amazing. This weekend 5 of us are off on a road trip to the mining county of Orange, can't wait especially as the futhest we have seen out of Sydney was the taxi ride from the airport when we first arrived!

We have now added some more pics......Most you will notice are of nights out which seems to be an everyday occurence but in between sipping our beers and dancing the night away we have also manged to get some pics of Sydney in its glory! We also have stayed in touch with our cultural side and you will see some pics of the Sculptures by the sea exhibition which was down on Bondi Beach, there are also a few of the city and some coastal shots that we've added just for good measure. 

Sorry it has taken so long to update you all with pics, hopefully there are some on there that will amuse you.....check out the one of andy in makeup....be warned though as it may give you nightmares!!

WE hope all is well your end and you are getting into the festive spirit...we've got our xmas tree up and are doing our best but its not quite the same in the sun and seeing Father Xmas burn down bondi beach on his sledge is just wrong! 

We will love you and leave you for now but we will be in touch again to send our tidings of goodwill from down under!

Lots of love Beth and Andy xxx

Yes we want more pics...get out of the bar and take some pics!!!! xx

Hi guys, just thought i´d touch base to see how your doing. There hasnt been any updates on the site for a while, no new piccis etc...

Beth sorry i have been sooo bad at replying to your emails-i will reply when i get  back to work -hopefully-its just work has been soo manic at the moment 1st  the new person just left after a week with no explanation which is sooo annoying as she was really good and then we finally got a new temp on monday and she didnt come back either! hmmmm maybe i shld be worried that its me/my training???

Pandy-spurs have finally found some goals & scored 5 last night in the carling cup (against MK dons) winning 5 nil! they've got  Port Vale in the next round (last 16)!

G'day Possums!

We thought we would touch base with you all to let you know that all is well this end! Both Andy and I have now joined the working world and are busy bee's saving money to fund the next leg of our tour in the new year.

I'm working in sales and am selling my soul to try and raise the pennies and Andy has become a city slicker and is working for a finance company in the heart of the city! Working life is is good and we are getting to meet lots of people!

We've joined forces with our fellow irish neighbours and there little initiation ceremoney appears to be a one off our only worry now is the coackroaches that seem to be becoming more and more regular visitors as summer is approaching....rumour has it that as it gets hotter the flying ones come out to play....i'm not looking forward to that!

We hope all is well your end and keep in touch with all your goings on!

 Ta ta for now....work is calling and as they say another day another dollar! xxx
