Hi Em - glad to hear that you've got yourself a job. I hope you don't get back-ache! Could be worse though, at least you'll be in the right place for a lunch time tipple! Henri is teasing us by telling everyone that there are loads of great photo's on Facepack, but what about those of us who don't use it? No doubt you'll be too busy to uploAd via your blog, but Michael and I would love to see them if you do get a minute. You are looking gorgeous girl, Australia clearly suits you- keep up the good work and take care xx
Henri
Hi Emma! How are you getting on? Just read your blog and looked at all the new photo's on Facebook! Looks/sounds you are having a great time! Not sure about that Lizard thing though! A little bird told me you weren't coming home till April!? I thought February was long enough! Never mind, I guess I'll have to choose my car myself! You have a lovely time, hope to have another chat on the phone soon. Take care. Henri. X

Henri
Ahoy Em!
Just been reading all of your posts, really absorbing. Great to hear you are having a good time! Oh, by the way, if you happen to see crocodile dundee lasooing any crocodiles, then you dont fancy swimming over there and grabbing his autograph do you?! His films are very good. Been at college last week, all gone well, back at work this week, then got the weekend plus 2 days off next week tractor test! Glad your having a good time, hopefully speak on the phone soon. Lots of love, Henri. X

Hi M Just looked at your weather, are you sure you are in Darwin not Singapore!!
Emma
Tomorrow Im setting of on a new adventure to Darwin, Alice Springs and Adelaide. Should be able to keep you all a bit more updated on this trip with my new laptop! :-) My mob number is +61477042622. :-)
Henri!
Alright Emma!?
Life sounds good upside down, just read your trip diary - very interesting! I even looked up what sand flies looked like (didn't fancy them hovering around!). Over the moon your having a great time! Really looking forward to seeing you again - make the most of your trip! Things are good here too - been well cold though! (Oh, I borrowed your quilt cause I was freezing and yours is a warmer one!). Been helping Ruth clear out Alf's stuff this morning.. She seems to be coping ok. Went tractor driving yesterday too, tractor test on the 15th! Not sure the tractor has many gears left though, as I ground them all up! Went to look at a Land Rover for me too! Not thinking about getting one yet, but it was just down the road so we though we would have a look. Proper old one, bit of a bone shaker! Thinking one might be good, maybe a defender though (newer!). One more week at work then I have got another week at college. Oh, and before I forget, Satvision came on Friday, so we have all got a super duper ariel! Going to look at some TV's in a little while online. Got fed up with online TV and all that buffering! Mum and Dad are all good, scary mary is grumpy because she has had two holidays in a row and is all tired and irritable! (other than that she is all good!). Jim has been out on the raz last night till early hours of this morning, I'm sure he will appear later on!
Well I better dash off before I wear out the keyboard. You take care, have a lovely time, and speak soon!
Good grief Emma, sounds like an action packed tour. Personally I wouldn't have slept a wink, and would now have bags under my eyes large enough to carry my luggage! You obviously coped very well though (with the exception of the bites). I'm sure the dolphins were amazing, and don't blame you for wanting to go back and volunteer. Your blog was an avid read, so off you pop, lot's more exciting things to be getting on with/write about. You take care, and looking forward to the next installment xx
