Hi there Kathy and George. So pleased to see that you had a good Christmas, I was thinking of you both, and now ,can't wait to see you both. It will be a little bit warmer here for you, John has come up here on the spur of the moment so all the boys will be here waiting to see you, it's been two years since we have all been together, so it has been a whole big Roller Coaster, and lots of laughs.
I will be waiting for you at the airport, make the most of your few more days in New Zealand, and enjoy them, sounds as though you are both having a ball, no two people deserve it more . Happy New Year to you both !! Love you Pat xxxx
To all my Humphreys family, and friends who have written on this site, I wish you all a very Happy and Prosperus New Year, Love to you all Pat and family xxxx

Hi mum & dad
just finishing off the packing nearly done just waiting for the tumble drier to finish then i can iron the last bits and close the cases. Had a very busy day yesterday but everyone had a lovely time feeling quiet tired today and very demotivated about going tomorrow hopefully a few hours sleep will remedy that,we are being picked up at 3am for booking in at 4.15 and flighing at 6am OOOh!!! The temp is about 60 out there so should be nice, was very frosty this morning but we didnt get the snow that they had predicted. Lin & Mo should have arrived now probably feeling very tired after that long flight I bet your both really pleased to see them. Driers finished will sign off Have a wonderful new year enjoy your lamb stew will be thinking of you both love you and miss you catch up with you next in Oz Debraxxxx

Hi George & Kaff (Bubbles) Can you imagine the shock Ive just had? Ive been too the local water park this morning, closed early to get to the local pub to partake in some christmas festivness. just got home to see a broom stick on the front door step, then going inside see a big old bird sitting on the side, i thought kin el ! she's come ome early,
No seriously the shock Ive had.
i hope you have a very festive day and a even better new year and from what I'm reading the broom stick you left here will need to be upgraded to a heavy duty version when you get home.
