I'm heading North 17th December until 4 Jan 08 so I may not be in touch for a little while [not unless I use internet in Library!!].

Bye for now. Lots of love Diane

Hi Kate & Neil
Like the photos of OLLIE. Looks a bit messy in there mind! Mind you, I would rather be sleeping in there than in our temporary accommodation!!!
We are having problems with our email address at the moment, so you might have problems sending us emails - we need to sort it out.
Speak soon. Take care.
Love Norma & Sean xxxx
Norma
Hi Kate & Neil
Sounds like fun! Can't believe you have a campervan! dead jealous - hope Sean doesn't read that as he wants us to get one for when we go camping. Can see our savings for New Zealand going towards a campervan now!! You will have to take a photo of it so we can see what it is like!
Glad you are still having lots of fun! Will give you a ring soon.
Take care
Love Norma & Sean
PS - 3 months savings in bank now!!!!

Just been catching up with some photos i.e. the ones of the reed boats.... ...
Have you made contact with Michael and family yet?
I'm travelling up to Hexham 17 December so I'll need to go to the library to keep up with your travels! [Mam and dad didn't quite master the computer so they gave it to Jill].
Lots of love Diane

Hi you two
Good to see you're still having a whale of a time, especially the wine tasting. Do you think you can keep up with your Mam now? Not many of us can do that! We're away on our weekend bash tomorrow to Middleham, N. Yorks. so I'll catch up with her then.
You'll be in New Zealand by the time you read this. Look forwrad to seeing those piccies. We've booked for Vancouver, Canada and west coast of America (grand canyon) next March. Can't wait!
Take care. xx
Lisa, Gary, Jack And Bump!
hey guys how are you both? Jack loved speaking to uncle neil on the phone the other morning.... he didnt realise that they had phones near New Zealand!! My mum is off to oz on saturday and is a bit nervous i think -
we are all fine here - bump is growing - will send you some pics via face book or email soon... quite pleased as my arse seems to have stopped spreading ! gary still convinced its a girl and jack has still chosen Richard or Steven for a boys name !! got a couple of months to put him off !! Cant beleive i am 27 weeks gone on Friday!
Hope you have settled into nz and that your friend got there safe and well. Looking forward to hearing from you again - will email you when package arrives.
Anyway will close this essay now and will speak to you soon.
Take care
love lisa, gary and jack

Hi Kate & Neil
Just to let you know that we are now in our "rented" accommodation. Move went as well as can be expected with just a few tears as I said goodbye (Norma, not Sean!!). Now looking for a house in the Cullercoates area. There is a one in your mam's street we might look at, which would be nice and handy to pick up Sunday dinner!
Hope you are both ok and look forward to reading your next updates. It was lovely to speak to you last week, we will give you a ring later on this week.
Take care and speak to you soon. Lots of love to you both.
Love Norma & Sean xxxx
