jackie You are a lot braver than me there is no way that i would have jumped forwards or backwards lol Been waiting for weeks for this post. Hows work going? Hope you are still managing to visit places and enjoy yourself. Take care Love Jackie xxx

Mam Its great to see you both so happy and I love hearing the things you have been upto, nothing surprises me with the little accidents. New Zealand looks fantastic and I just knew if there was a shop named after you it would be a shoe or handbag shop. I will have to send your photo to the Tigers magazine haha. Take care xx

jackie Just finished reading the second half of this post very entertaining and sounds such fun. You inherited your great nan's genes for dropping your food down you which is why she always wore her pinny (apron). I can just imagine you trying to get through the holes and like Louise I don't think I would have liked the visitor it probably realised she was uncomfortable with it walking towards her lol. Take care love jackie xx

jackie Sounds like great fun on the boat now thats something I would definitely have a go at. Glad you had the log fire to warm up to though all you needed then was the hot chocolate and marshmallows. Love Jackie xx

Cathy I have loved reading this and I am feeling quite envious. How delightful it must have been to see the seals in there own environment and especially the one curled up in the tree. You must be in overload with all the wonderful things you are seeing. Take care love you ----Nana

jackie Don't worry your not the only one who is love sick lol. I am really surprised you weren't seasick you didn't inherit that from your mum and grandparents then. Sounds fantastic I hope you have taken some nice pictures of the waterfalls and mountains in New Zealand I always think they are beautiful and magnificent crazy I know!! The others just don't get it lol. Sounds as if you are having great time I 'm now waiting to read about your skydiving and the other thing you did which to be honest you must be half mad to even try but I guess thats just my age I would probably have done it at your age. You really should have brought a sat nav and took it with you then set it to where you wanted to go and then you would never have got lost lol. Keep up with the blogs they are very entertaining. Take good care love jackie xxx

Louise It amuses me reading this, even though I was there and therefore know what is coming!! xxx

Jackie I am now beginning to wonder whether anything you arrange ever goes straightforward because it seems so far that all your plans go out the window every time you arrive anywhere lol. Sounds like you are having great fun though. I wish I was 25 years younger. Been round to nurse christopher today typical male needs mummy when injured lol. Take care love jackiexxx

Jackie Loved it very entertaining. I am so glad that someone else cried at UP I cried as well lol. Just thi k there excalators are faster than ours thats why you couldn't get back off it. Glad to hear all is going well will be waiting anxiously for the next instalment. Take care love jackie xxx
