David Out there people do read these...to the next steps in lifes journey D

mog Your last blog is so poignant - its time to go home. . . sniff sniff! I hope the journey was bearable (the films always help!) And welcome home to scotland! Hope its all in one piece. Im glad you had so many good times - makes it all worthwhile! China going well, cycled round the city wall of xi'an today - 2 hours and a sore bum later im done! x x x

Jeff and Vi Like the latest photos (17 Feb), especially the rusty vehicles. Don't want to be too pernickety but that isn't actually a proper fergie, it's much more modern than that. Don't be tempted to bring the bleached logs back, Air NZ will not be pleased if u turn up at the check in desk trailing great hunks of firewood. Weather has turned mild here after a brief two week winter. Probably just trying to fool us, expect there will be hailstones next week. Hope ur enjoying things, love Jeffrey and Violeta

mo the to Loved the photos of the model t's! Cant believe they all dressed up - must have made for some atmosphere! We're in melbourne now - sent you an email about where we'll be staying. Will phone sometime soon x x x x

david Tried 2 different email systems both bounced back -please send email and I'll reply to ensure correct address D

Morag the torag Great photos - its a shame we didnt take a better one of the last supper, i look like a growth on kezz's shoulders! Oz hot and humid, lots of rain but amazing beaches and a good fun campervan making up for it! Hows work? And hope the hangovers ok from this fridays happy hour! Oh, and can you email me what you think about those booster vacinations? Love mo x x x

Anne Super new photos, mum will enjoy them, I'll take my laptop over on my day off.

Jeff and Vi Hello, like the latest photos, get an impression that life there is all about wine tasting, sunshine, flowers, sweet smelling soaps, can't be bad. Things are OK here, weather is coldish, but no great frosts or snow, no gardening going on yet though, enough time for that later. Now where did I put that hot water bottle...? Love Jeff and Vi

Morag Hi mum! Now that im four hours drive away i feel i can leave you a message! Thank you for all the great times over the last month and best of luck with everything thats still to come. Im off to chase some kangaroos! Love mo x x

Margaret I seem to have lost an email from you. It wouldn't open, then disappeared into cyberspace. Got the one with the 'ps'. Areyou having lovely summer weather? It's pretty chilly here. Margaret

Jeffrey and Violeta Excellent blog on Hong Kong, you tell a great story, and well done for finding a human spot at the monastery, in what sounds like an impersonal city. And, oh, thanks for not posting a photo of you eating with chopsticks, the description is vivid enough. Love and safe travelling. Jeffrey and Violeta

anne livingston Hope to make mum read your blog and see the photos later on I dont think I would have braved the cable car though it looks like quite an adventure bye Anne
