Hello Girls. It was lovely to hear your voice when you phoned yesterday. Thank you very much for the blog, about time.! You have obviously been very busy on your travels.
Message for Ben and Matt - Hope you will come "down norton" where you will be very welcome. We can show you the four pubs, the river (brook) and One Stop. Don't let that put you off though, we all know how to have a good time, especially when alcohol is involved.
Any way girls, we know you are off on your aus bus tour soon and hope to hear all about Sydney in another blog with lots of photos please. Love of love. Mummy, Daddy, Craig, Poppy, Ginge (spelt right this time). xxxx

Message to Mummy Mandy and Mummy Tina;

Hiya! we've been just as excited to meet the girls and its been awesome (please don't tell them that though, might go to their heads!) Don't really want to leave them now.

We would love to head 'down norton' as we've already heard so much about you all and it would cool to share some of our traveling experiences with the girls (im sure we would have a different view on things!)
love pat and tins (matt and ben!) xx

Hello girls, i guess its about time for my monthly 'message board' post...although i dunno if should bother cus its not like your putting the effort in! And now you've left asia i dont really care what your up to anyway, i was only reading it to pick up tips for good places to go! Aha. And lets face it nothings gonna be as good as the elephant ride, its all down hill after that.

Anyway, i hope your enjoying whatever your doing. No doubt melissa enjoyed your home and away expierience (loser). Take care and keep having fun. Oh god i forgot about the sum.

Speak to you soon. Missing you.xxxxx

hello melissa and jadey just been reading your blog. you have got some amazing pictures up. so so so so jealous you done. lots of love kevvvy xxxxx

Message for Ben & Matt - I hope we are all going to meet you two guys someday, I know Jade & Lou Lou have missed their travelling buddies amd will be so pleased to see you!!

Message for Jade & Lou Lou - hello girlies, come on spill the beans about your time in Oz so far!!

We had a great week-end camping, weather was gorgeous (think I am as brown as you two - not). Even Mummy Tina enjoyed her night in our tent! Take no notice of Tina saying Daddy poisoned Glyn - it was self inflicted alcohol poisoning assisted by Jez.Sammy is coming home this Sunday, yippee a bit more noise in the house. Don't worry about texting Jade as your emails are enough to keep us informed and it's not worth you topping up your phone when you can communicate via the internet anyway.

Love & miss u loads xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey guys!!
Matt left a message so I thought i would too... I mean I really wanted to!! (especially as you actually told us to!)
Sounds like you had an awesome time, and some of the stories you've told me have instantly made me jealous! I love Thailand, and if you guys are anything to go by( and i think you probably are!) then the rest sounds just as good! (although I feel it would be difficult to top up my tan with no beaches...)
Im sure you're going to have a wicked time travelling up the coast, I want to do it again. Im looking forward to a few days in Sydney with you guys, it just isn't the same without you!:)
much love
Ben

Hey Guys, just waiting for you to get ready and thought i'd have a cheeky look at the blog. Everywhere you've been looks amazing and they're all going straight on my bucket list.
I'm pleased you had such a good time in Asia and i dont doubt Oz will be jus as good for you.
Well happy to be spending time with you guys again and well up for a good night now.
Lots of love Matt xxx

Hello Girlies. We have all sent you messages and we think it is now time for another blog and photos. Dad has gone to Australia house to get information on how to emigrate. Think he is too old (and fat) and wont be allowed in. Melissa, dad says find an australian hunk. Dad says can you understand why he loved it so much now that you have been there. Let us know how the bridge climb went. Can't wait to know whether you enjoyed it or thought it was scary. Hope you weren't turned away because you were over the limit because of vodka buckets. Bet your systems are wondering whats happening since you left thailand. I have just spent the last hour installing the internet service AGAIN. The computer is beginning to Piss me off. Craig is sad because Newcastle have been relagated but he can now watch them play in bristol city - oh dear. Been on the bike to Dawlish, daddy was naughty and went very fast. Spent the night camping (i found it a lot more comfortable than I had imagained and would do it again. Daddy had a bad sausage (cooked by Daddy Newman) and he was up in the middle of the night being sick. It was nothing to do with Stella and rough cider that Jez gave him. Yes we saw Jez and he will marry you Melissa or Jade (he doesn't worry which one). Craig came to Exmouth and stayed in caravan on Sunday night and went out on the town. He came back disappointed as all he found were a lot of VICKY POLLARDS. (not all of them were dressed in pink). Any way, get on with the blog of aus, we cant wait. Lots of love.xxxxxxxxxxx

Thats ok Tia - oops!! You called Ginge Hinge in your blog, need to slow those fingers down!!

NOTE TO MANDY. SORRY MANDY I WAS THE TYPIST AND I CALLED YOU "MANY". NEED TO RE-TRAIN OBVIOUSLY.

Hello my lovelys. So pleased to read on the blog that you have had such a fantastic time in Asia. The safari was something out of this world, dont believe you were led down close to those tigers - an experience you will never forget. You both look really well too, thats great. Mike and Janes' dog milly had 6 gorgeous puppies yesterday, they are so cute, you would love them, have taken pictures today.

Now you are off on another adventure in Australia. Enjoy your stay with Julie, Rob and the girls. I agree Many, we need acting on the beach. Keep well, look after each other. Lots of love and hugs. Missing you. Nannie and Grampy. xxxxx
