Great new update Beth and we enjoyed Josh's photos too. Really glad Sam at last got his visa, especially as one of the main news stories today is about NZ refusing to give or renew visas because of the lack of jobs for Kiwis.

Biscuits look good Josh! Will look forward to hearing you sing and play the guitar for us when you get back.

Hope you both manage to get down to Queenstown for your jumps!

gnarly beard josh!! adam thinks you look like a salty seadog!

nice to have another blog - beth you are very good at including lots of detail and i always look forward to reading them.

hope nan's journey back was ok. i'll send her an email in the next few days and send some photos of ivy - she's been sitting up by herself and rolling over by herself too - hooray!!

It must be time for an update...?!

yo wassup guys!!!

thought id post ya little note. singapore was amazing! really really really hot. wen we got the we checked into our hotel and had to hav cold showers is was so hot! we then went into the town for a look around. it was lovely and so beautiful with giant palm trees and flowers everywhere. come shops were reli conventional like house of fraser but we found china ton and the back roads loads more exciting. we found a little place to get food which looked like it should probably b reli unhygenic but wwas reli nice!we both at for a total of $8 which is less than £4!!!!!

then next morning we woke up early so that we could walk through singapore towards the airport, it was nly half nine but chris and i were literally dripping with sweat it was so hot. we had to stop about 5 times to get a drink and a rest. it is a shame that we werent there longer rlei.

anyway we got home ok. fidget, you will releived to know is still alive!!! and chris and i are going to pick him up on sunday.

did bear get his visa???

hope ur all ok and having fun, although it sounds like chris and i were the life and soul!

miss u all

millions of love

Looking forward to seeing Rosie and Chris - planning to go straight up to the airport after work today. Can't believe how quickly their month has gone.

Hope everything is OK with the rest of you. Keep us posted. It's been a bit quiet recently!

Love Mum x

Wotcha....

Looks like you're all having a fab time... well you're all being missed at rehearsals and i'm definately missing Rosie at work (no-one else makes coffee like you do :-/ hehe)

I wonder how many more pics will have mountains in... hmmmm

:-)

cya soon x (kiss was not for Josh)

Hey everyone!

It's been really great reading your messages when we update the site, its nice to know you haven't forgotten about us :P

Hope you're all doing really well over in England, and we hope that you're getting warmer weather than us, its sunny, just absolutely freezing!

Love from all at no. 42 xxxx

What a brialliantly entertaining story Beth. All your hard work at school paid off and you write really well! It was so interesting to read all about the trip to Hamner. It sounds as though it was great fun and it's good to have met up with other travellers and locals. Well done and thanks for keeping us all up to date. Really glad you all enjoyed yourselves.

Love your nickname for Sam. Shame he didn't go with you to Hamner but presumably he's got to wait for his visa to arrive so he can start work asap. Hope that comes through very soon.

Just to recap for Nan's flight - she is being met at the airport by her friend and Josh is due to pick her up at the Wildmoor Wildlife Park at 60 Hussey Road.

p.s. Don't forget to make sure the car and house are tidy when she gets back with Harry!!!

Love to you all xxxx

Thanks for some news - thought you were away at Hamner for a few days once Beth had arrived. Look forward to hearing about that.

Dad and I did a weekly shop and only took two bags!! It's really strange having the house to ourselves but we're coping. Love to you all, Josh, Rosie, Chris, Beth and Sam xxxxx

glad you got there safe and sound beth - well done for coping with such a nightmare journey. only four hours sleep in 24 hours - welcome to my world!!!!

Looks like you are all having loads of fun - i'm well jealous, especially of those burgers. I'm not surprised Josh went for that massive one, Adam would have done the same...and ordered some sides to go with it...and had pudding!

Ivy and I went out this morning and got soaked by the rain so we've enjoyed being snuggled up on the sofa this afternoon, reading your blogs and looking at the photos. (Ivy's just done a massive trump in agreement - she found it very funny! How childish!!)

Lots and lots and lots of love! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Great to read about your trip out Beth. You did really well to cope with some anxious moments. Glad you got there safe and sound. It was nice to have a blog to read so quickly - hint hint the rest of you!

Look forward to reading more soon. Love to you all. xxxxx
