hey mate glad to hear your having fun out there! if you ring tony any time soon we will have to have a longer chat! I would ring you but being a poor student who has just managed to survive christmas on low funding im sure you can imagine im abit streched for cash. How was christmas for you dude? did santa leave a great big lump of coal at the end of your bed or just a great big sun outside? Bideford is just as it was before you left (just incase you wake up in a cold sweat every night thinking something may of changed). Oh and tony is still fat and slightly missing you and jonson. See ya soon dude and keep those camp pics of you coming ha ha ha ha! catch you on the GMT side.

Hey mate! Hope you are having the bestest time out there. And hope you had a great christmas. Love from Megan x

Hey, merry christmas, how was your day?
I've spent mine hid in my room 'cause dispite waking up with presents, I also woke up with a massive hang over. Anyway hope your day was good talk soon I guess. -Alex.

Hi James... Lovely photos, bloody hectic here... trying to get a bog plumbed in for Xmas otherwise its bucket and chucket for Grandad this afternoon! Reg Penny and Rhiannon arrived today we got back from airport with them at 3 am! Enjoy the warmth... you'll miss it next Xmas, I bloody do! Helena X

No It's no consolation really, but hey we'll just sit inside by the fire and keep warm, well me Lewis and Amy will anyway. Me and Lewis want snow but everyone else keep telling us to **** off can't imagine why, it's there own fault for having jobs outside !!!!

Enjoy it whilst you can coz you'll be that skint when you get home it won't happen again.

Well if its any consolation it's too bloody hot up in queensland now i can't seem to find a happy medium, in the 30's and humidity hanging around the 80% mark! to hot to do anything really! I'm just looking around for work at the moment which is proving a little difficult as no1 seems to be employing untill january, which means a couple of expensive weeks. Im looking in working on a resort island doing cleaning/ bar work, pays well and you get to live on an island paradise with all the free food you could want! But thats a lucky shot in the dark i think. Be sure to phone me on christmas eve night or christmas morning. NOT DURING THE DAY, I WILL BE ASLEEP!(you day not mine).

I hate you!!! I wore three coats at work today and i was still bloody freezing. Hope your having a great time.

Hello mate, good to hear your enjoying it out there! Whitsundays will be sweet, so jealous as its bloody freezing here. Southern cross was a good boat to go on if your stuck for choice!

Look forward to the next blog post, take care!
