Fav auntie Great to hear from you guys and to read about your amazing adventures down under! You certainly seemed to have packed a lot in.  What a great birthday present Cat from the oldies!  Climbing the bridge was one of the highlights of our trip.  Well, delighted to hear Kush is trying out the alternative health care systems.  And he's survived them.  Hope he's feeling a lot better. Am writing this from Auntie Annes in Bermuda!! Katie and I have come over on Bill's airmiles...well they were just gathering dust.  It is pouring at the moment but we sat out for a couple of hours yesterday and KT has managed to burn her knees!  Uncool or what! We,re off to the house sales this morning and I'm planning to buy a nice Royal Doulton jug! ( ask your mum if you don't understand that Cat!!)  If you plan to go to Auckland let me know as my friends son is there and has offered to FEED you!! Lots of love from us all in Bermuda, Fav Auntie xxx

Cat Hey guys, Sorry about the very long absence of photos or blogs - heading to NZ on sunday and hoping to steal Rich's (cousin) computer for a few hours to get up to date!  We're still having an awesome time - are in Cairns and have just booked a diving trip for thursday - can't wait.  Hope everyone is well and will update soon.  Love Cat and Kush. P.s, Hey Nett, this strange man insisted on bandaging my toe up and made it look like i'd broken my foot!  I just cut it on a branch or something i think but all good now :)

nettie,dunc,charlie,zoe Hi Cat pictures look great and so does the sun tan,  what did you do to your toe as i see you have got it bandaged up? nothing too serious i hope. Hope you had a goot birthday and didn't get too drunk, where are you off too next? hope to hear from you soon . Nettie,Dunc,Charlie,Zoe xx

Claire Hi Cat - a very belated Happy Birthday. There is a card waiting for you in England when you are back. I have made an Easter resolution to be better at keeping in touch with everyone - so I will definitely send you a proper e mail soon. Hope that you are still having a fabulous time, and enjoying travelling around Oz. We can't wait to see you in the summer. Take care, xxx.

Fav Auntie Just counting down to the big birthday in a few days Cat...sorry I missed yours Kush! Anyway I hope Australia is ready for a BIG party! How are you enjoying life's finer things like HOT showers, proper loos with paper and burgers! Are you planning to climb the bridge? We're all waiting to read of what you've been up to since you hit OZ so get blogging! Happy birthday in advance. Check hotmail for your card. Love me xxx

Emma-Jane Hey! Your bro is currently in Manchester visiting, although it doesnt quite compare to your AMAZING photos! How's is all going? I am sooooooooo jealous! Just about to kill David with my cooking before getting drunk and jumping around in an indie club.... lol... Hope it all goes well... I will now follow your travels religiously! Take care and HAVE FUN!!! xxx

Nade Hey Guys!! Hey kush how u doin?  Your pictures most definately tell a story!   I hope your both well and loving every minute of it.    Not too much change to report....oh HAPPY BIRTHDAY KUSH (i think)!  Where you guys off to next?   Anywayz  take care, Lov nade xx

Cat Sorry Eileen, next time even when there's a hint of the slightest sniffle we'll be sure to demand your presence!Just killing time at Singapore airport waiting to fly to Oz - we tried to get bumped up to first class as it's Kush's birthday in a few hours but our plan failed.  Next time we're going to pretend it's our honeymoon to see if we have more success!    

Richard Pratley Hi Cat, I can recommend the diving in Fiji - the coral reefs are just fantastic - if your heading that way? If not Australia is a good second best :). Are you still planning to head to NZ? Anyhow have fun...and watch out for those Lady Boys ! Love Rich, Michelle, Caitlin & Ella.

Fav Auntie ( NOT Mary or Anne!) Well.....I'm not sure I'm talking to you Cat as, having been put on standby to come to your assistance in an emergency, I received no summons to come to your aid while mum and dad were on their cruise. I had found a flight... B.A. ( only 1st class available ) and was prepared to come if needed....couldn't you have made up a porky?!! Your PADI course does sound great though! Bill did one when we were in Phuket ..all I remember was he got shouted at for going up to clear his mask without permission! Well you're missing glorious weather here. Wind, rain,wind,rain.wind...I think you get the idea. I'm off to England on Thurs. Night out with Katie, Nick and Lizzie then down to Salisbury for a knees up. On Mon Mary and I are off to the house in France. She thinks she's going to shop, eat and drink but I thought I'd start her by cutting the lawn! Where to next? Is Australia beckoning yet?? I hope you're going to climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge....like us oldies did last year. It was awesome! Off to bed. Comfortable mattress...fluffy duvet....no bed bugs ( well only Bill!) Have fun. Love the photos. Fav Auntie xxxx

Lizzie Hello guys, Thats so cool your doing the PADI cousre...no worries about revising its pretty much common sense! Yep Catty it means we can be dive buddies on the cornish coast...lets do it! Apparently there is some really good stuff if we find out where to go, cold water corals and things! Hope you both good! Not long til Oz now. Take Care and Speak soon! Lizzie xxxx
