Hallo darling, Sounds as if you are having a really good time down under - I am so pleased. We could certainly do with some of your lovely weather here. Today it is ab solutely awful. You are packing quite a lot in now that you have recovered from jet lag, and I believe you are now at a surf school. That should be great fun. Take great care of yourself and continue to have a super time. Your Mum and I are going to London to see the ballet Swan Lake tomorrow and you never know we might have to do a bit of sale retail therapy too!!!Lots of love Joanna - give my love to Australia.

Hey Jo, sounds like an ace time being had in syd. Just about shorts weather here to be honest, so no worries bout everyone being jealous with the heat. Anyway keep having a blast. Rich

Hi Joanna. You poor old thing, it's sounds like you got fried, we've all done it. How much surfing have you done, are the waves good all of the time? How are you getting on with your room-mates? Are they surfing too?Take care of that sun, and more care of you. Love you, Muum xxx

Hi Helen, Isn't it strange only having 1 baby left at home! Hope you're keeping well.

Dad enough with the chav talk . hi joanna miss u

I don't know all my naggin about sun block , xfactorrrr 50, cetararrr. Blate went in one ear thru the void and out the other. Oh well a nice week surfing with 3 degree burns and you will be havin a wicked time.

Adam's team beat South London's Santly 5-2 in his league game on Sunday. Annabel returned to portsmouth with nothing missing after the break in.

Gales and rain here, sounds like you are still enjoying it though.
