Oz looks wonderful. Although you said eeeeeazy, walking round a dark rain forest sounds nearly as dodgy as late night Southend. Weather here crap hope yrs is better.

Oz is on my wish list now!! Enjoy great time,

Hiya, hope you are both well and having a great time! When are you hitting South America? I go on the on May 29th and wondered if our paths will cross!

Hi Lee & Kelly. Thank you for my birthday package - whatever it is - I'm not allowed to open it yet. Lee, I especially like the 'Now 40' comment on the envelope! We are getting excited about our holiday now - not long to go. Sounds like you're having a great time in Oz. If United win tonight, apparently I have to change our flights from Anaheim to Las Vegas as we cannot risk missing a second of the final!!! (Yes Kelly, I despair. Why does football have to rule our lives?)

Miss you both & love you both loads. xxxxxxxxx

Hi guys! Glad to hear you are still enjoying yourselves. I cant believe how quick time has flown by and you are halfway through your trip. We are very envious at where you both get to have your birthday's this year! We have put our hands in our pockets and booked a trip to New York as we want some excitement like your adventures (Although only having 6 days rather than 6 months might hinder the amount of action we see)!

Love you both as always!

Hello again you two, glad to hear that you are both keeping well and that the tour is still going great. Hope Lee had a fab birthday, and he told the dingoes where to go when they came looking for his cake. Lee, I hope you can find a TV somewhere on Saturday so that you can see the Chelsea 'Blue-Boys' stuff the 'Red Devils' and take the Premiership title away from them..We'll be thinking of you !!! Good luck, lots of love and all the best to you both. The Suts xxxx
