It was sooooo good to have such a long chat on Saturday and the latest photos are super!
We are now counting down the days when you will be home and it will be great to see you for real! (although it has been so good to see all the pictures as you go along).
See if you can find some miracle "keep that tan without going blotchy" for when you get home!.
Nanna was so pleased you phoned her and she sends her love again.
Only 19 days left so make the most of it and what is still to come, because before you know where you are it will be back to routine and hard work!
We will text you when your parcel from New Zealand finally arrives!.
All our love, as always,
Mum & Dad xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Laura, looks like the tan is coming along nicely - you look great in the photos! Those white sandy beaches look idyllic. Only 2 more 'sleeps' for us till we go to Florida so we are all looking forward to that. Hope to come back with a tan too, although I won't be as tanned as Sally! Rob enjoyed the Young Knives - he went in the mosh pit for the encores and re-lived his youth! I like the sound of the cocktails - we will have to compare recipes when you get back! Enjoy Australia - I'm sure you will! Love Jo XXXX

Hi Gorgeous,
We all had a fab time at your mum & dads they spoilt us rotton! We went to Langham Glass where we saw a dolphin, elephant and a paper weight being made, it was grear fun. Girls aslo got to do some glass painting.
Sounds like you are having a ball out there with lots of shopping!(we have so much in common)
We are all so excited about going to see Micky and Minnie, also we cant wait to swim with the Dolphins.
Keep trying out the cocktails and we can make some next time you come and stay with us!
Love you Loads S,D,R,E xx xx

AAAAAAAH OR!!! Hey hey hey howz it hangin'?! Sounds like you guys are having a great time - aaaah the memories! Did you manage to stop in Mission Beach at all?? Anyways, just thought I'd say hi and try to figure out when you're arriving in NZ... it can't be far away right?! I'm in Fiji at the moment but heading back to NZ next weekend, flick me an email so I can iron the red carpet! :)

Hi Laura,
Sounds like you are having a great time, apart from the blistering that is!
I tried to think of the most memorable news stories here to remind you of life back in the UK! Not too sure if you read the news, so here is what is going on..
Tony Blair will stop being Prime Minister in a few weeks. Gordon Brown wil take over. He has been meeting school children and kissing babies to prepare.
Prince Harry was going to go to Iraq, but hes not now. Apparently our third in line to the throne will be a target there..
Man Utd and Chelsea will play in the FA Cup final at Wembley this weekend. Also Jose'the special one' was arrested because his dog was brought into the country without having the correct checks. There is now a rabied dog running around London after it escaped the police!
I tried to find out where Norwich finished. I'm gonna say 16th in the table. Please anyone correct me if I am wrong..
Prince William and Kate Middleton have split up! Obviously he was saving himself for you when you return.
And perhaps the most newsworthy story ever - Paris Hilton is going to jail! Shocker! She was caught driving on a suspended licence. She has now re invented herself as a Christian, church attending, knicker wearing nun.
I will keep you posted on all major news stories!

How do you remember where you are supposed to be and what day it is?!! It all sounds fantastic - apart from the cockroach and rat that is!
We, too, have been travelling - although not as far as you!! Just got back from a weekend at Heacham in a caravan! Jenna and Harry loved it - we went to Snettisham farm and deer park and fed the lambs from a bottle and the deer ate out of our hands (although Harry was a bit scared and dropped his deer food!). A couple of weekends ago we cycled part way round Rutland Water - Harry had to go twice as fast as the rest of us as his bike wheels aren't very big! At Easter we went to Gloucester, Cheltenham, Bath and the Cotswolds for a few days. Jenna saw her favourite animals close up at the wildlife park- the meerkats. Next week Rob goes to Macclesfield to play golf for the weekend and Bertie is having a holiday with us while the Foxes are at Wymondham
Rob is going to see the Young Knives at Loughborough Uni - it's quite a few years since he was last there- hope he's not mistaken for someone's dad!
Carry on having a great time - loads of love R, J, J & H

This is a message to ALL who know Laura: the end of her update says she wants to know what is happening "at home". By this she a means in England and wants to hear from everybody! We are in touch with her fairly regularly and she so wants to hear from all of you! We have told her it is boring back here compared to what she and Helen are up to, but you know Laura, she is constantly thinking of her family and friends and wants to know all about you!
