Hi Em and Loz, great to hear you arrived safe and well and are enjoying Sydney. We saw the fireworks on telly, but they probably were better in reallife. The London fireworks were fantastic. Grandad and I watched in bed as did your Mum and Dad, due to them both under the weather with this rotten cold. A happy New Year ro you both and happy travels. Love G and G.

Darling Lauren, It was lovely speaking to you today. Just been looking at all the photos - it looks though you managed to get settled quite quickly! The website is a great idea and it is a wonderful way for us to see your progress. With all our love today and always. Dad & Judy XXXX

G'day Girls! Thought of you both y'day yr time as I listened to the New Year coming in Down Under on Radio 5 Live from Oz. Bloody Marvellous! It was reckoned to be the best firework display in the harbour ever & you were there. You Lucky b******s! To say I'm GREEN WITH ENVY is the understatement of the day. Love the wasted pic - 1st of many, I trust. Carry On Gargling the Aussie Red. Much Love & a Very HAPPY NEW YEAR Love, Teddy the b****** (as my Aussie mates like to call me) XXXX
