Deborah Well, you ended your last blog with a "Lancashire saying", so here's one in return....."You get what you pay for!" I bet if Tony and I had been there we would have been on the crisp linen yacht - was your boat offering a senior's special? love Pollyanna

Jean, Ronald & Dave Hya Joe and Vera, Just found out about this blog , so been showing mum n dad all your ramblings, Glad your enjoying it, mum n dad are enjoying the postcards. Weather here is terrible, I (Dave) woke up to snow - covering everything only last Wednesday - somebody told us it was April ... but we think they lied !!

We will now be regular visitors to this blog and will continue to enjoy your "quirky" commentary of your trip , take Care and happy rambling , God be with you Dave, Jean & Ronald

sylvia banks Just caught up with you again, and looked at the map, was amazed at how far you have travelled, what an experience! We did have snow here over Easter and weather not much better now, cold, snow, wind, which makes me even MORE evious of you both. Keep on trecking and having a marvelous time. Will visit you again soon. Love to you both. God bless, Sylvia x

graham & Jackie Dadson Just watched your video of the tree climb, it takes a brave man to do that. Your nickname is well deserved-"LOW-GI-JOE" or should that be"HIGH-GI -JOE"

The Harrisons To Grandma and Grandad i hope your having a great time and we wish you a happy Easter God bless you both The Harrisons. (ps) i hope the Easter bunny can find you!!!!!

Linda Ringholt Hi Joe and Vera I caught up with George and Linda last night and we were discussing how your trip is going. George sent me your blog address. It looks like you wont be home any time soon, so I guess it must be going well. The photos certainly tell me that. I'm a tad envious to say the least. I hope you make it out to New Norcia north east of Perth. It's well worth a look. Thinking of you both. Linda xx

Sylvia Banks Hello Dear Vera and Joe, caught up with your blog today, what a fantastic time you are having, and what wonderful memories you will always have. Will e mail you soon. Love to you both and here's hoping you will have a fun filled Easter. (I believe we may be getting snow here in the UK). Keep on travelling. Remindes me of the song by the Travelling Wilburys. Sylvia x

Emilie Harrison Dear Grandma and Gradad, I have just looked on your blog and saw Grandad climb the Gloucester Tree. I think Grandad was very brave to climb the tree and I hope that his legs get better soon. Love you both heaps Em.

Elaine Hints Dear Vera and Joe, Home from Tassie. Got your phone call, off to Cairns on Tuesday. Had a good laugh at your navigators antics. Will send you message when I return from Cairns. Love you heaps Miss our breakfasts Elaine

Tony Sharrock You really are having problems with the sat nav aren't you? according to one photo you are in the most south easterly point of Australia, well the last time I looked at a map the most south easterly point of Australia was in Victoria!!

Phil Harrison Great to be able to read the blog and know where you are even though we have missed you on the phone. Its been a ridiculously busy week here, 2 birthdays, 2 sleepovers (Lord save me from 10 year old girls!), me in Melbourne for 4 days and Trish now in bed with a violent vomiting bug. Someitmes the Nullarbor sounds all right you know! By the way, I dare you to climb the Gloucester tree at Pemberton - Emilie did it so Grandad has to! God Bless you both.
