Just written a message to you all & realised I haven't sent it - how silly am I!? So to reiterae - it seems ages since you left us at Heathrow. Life here not much different & Elvis still not had babies. Linda & Kes very excited about looking after the guinea pigs now - I don't think. Digby will love them though! Bex played in Surrey hockey tournament today & she was best player. She had grin all over her face s she scored Guildfords 2 goals. Only 2 weeks til we see ou all - so looking forward to it. Keep enjoying the sight - both male & scenic! Thanks for lovely Mother's Day flowers. Tons of love xxx

hi guys
sounds like you are having a good time. I'll get to NZ one day. Not long till u get back to Oz and the family meets up on the other side of the world. I bet your mum and dad and Bex are getting a bit excited to say the least. Looking forwards to seeing you both and meeting Sami. Weather here has turned a bit cooler which is lovely - a change from the 40 degrees we were having a month or so back. Had lots of rain recently which again is a change from the severe drought conditions we have endured for many months. Kate is back at uni doing a Masters of Teaching over the next 2 years and Nicholas is waiting to start his Store Manager training. Give us a ring when u get to Sydney so we know u are safe. Will arrange a pick up for u when u come out to see us. It may be easier for me to pick u up at a strange railway station on my way home from work. Will decide the pick up point after u arrive. Keep safe. love from Jen and me.

Hi Sam,
Just as I was reading your latest travel news my son phoned and said I know The Clansman - good place! I'm also so jealous that you are prob at Lake Wanaka now and will be visiting a lot of the same places I visited.
Glad your well and having a great time. Don't forget to go up the cable car in Queenstown - the views are absolutely stunning! Have fun!
Linda
Hi to all of you - cannot believe how much you have done already! Do they still have unsealed roads over there or was that only in the dark ages. Sarah is really jealous and I am to print off all your adventures and send them to her - she has trouble with internet in France! She sends her love to you all as do Kes and I and says not to get too brown!!
Scott
Hi Sam,

Mara
I love getting these updates. I hope that the views and the trips outweighed the hell hole, seems that way!! Postcard was ace, just got it yesterday! Hope you're all well. Lots of love to you all, missing you! xxxxxxxxxxxx

The sights are breathtaking even when viewed from the armchair. Wouldn't mind some of that blue sky here!! Bex has academic tutoring today so has her lie in - sshe has played 3 matches this week & has training todight - I can't keep up with all the washing of kit so she's having to wear some og your pe skirts - down to her knees so she's not too keen!! We think Elvis could be pregnant as she has a huge belly - watch this space!!!!!! Your diary gets funnier each entry, keep them coming. Be seeing you all soon love & hugs xxxx
