Kathleen I arrived at Heathrow around 1pm Wednesday,Debra was waiting for me , it was lovely to see her.I left Auckland on Tuesday at 6.45pm, the flying time on 2 planes was 23 hours with stop off at Melbourne ..Dubai of 4hour, I didn't get any sleep , however I did watch 6 films.My sleep Patten to say the least has been very erratic,I slept for 8 hours last night...which was good, I think the jet lag is still here as I am making so many spelling errors...unbelievabubble. I think thats all I will do today as its not coming out spontaneously.I just wanted to say ....I'm home !!! will catch up when I am not feeling sooooooooooo dosy. Luv Kathleen

Susan Hi Lin Thank you both very much for taking good care of my big sister - Can't wait to hear all the stories! Susan x

Debra Hi Mum, Probably getting ready for bed last sleep....What-a-mistaka-Jamie-maka.....hes in for big trouble :( Great to speak to you Sunday...was alittlle jayed too much vino saturday..never mind fine today. Birdy returned yesterday with all her shackles... she's really enjoyed the flat an her independance, just over a week and she will be off on her travels...her backpacks nearly packed she's getting excited about the trip, she was looking at the elephant treks with Jenny the other day but I think they are going to wait until they get there before they decide what to do. As Christine said the weather has improved and temps have crept up..but we are due some rain later this week but you'll be getting over your jet-lag so that wont matter. I'm off to the unit, a mans looking at the roller shutter, see you on Wednesday will check your flight times to make sure you're arriving as expected. Safe journey and don't acost any strangers on the plane!!!! Love Debraxx
