Hej mamma, Hade ingen aning om att det var min namsdag. Tack sa mycket =). Har precis landat i Nya Zeeland. Har ar valdigt kalt. Flog over glaciarerna och alperna. Valdigt vackert. I morgon ska vi se om vi kan ta en bat och aka ut till havs och se om vi kan se nagra valar. Kan inte fatta att du ska till Island, Nu ar det jag som ar avundsjuk. Hur lange kommer ni stanna dar? Philip och jag ser fram emot sverige england matchen....kommer bli kul (sa lange vi vinner sa klart).
Kram Linda

Hej på Er !
Grattis på namsdagen Linda (Det vet du troligen inte om för du har väl inte sett en svensk almanacka på länge ) Kikade på Era kort o de är fantastiska som vanligt kul med de svart/vita de är jättefina.
Jaha Phil vad tror du om dagens match Sve /Eng båda lagen har ju fått kämpa för sina mål i sista minutrarna men England har ju lyckats bäst hittils måste jag ju tyvärr erkänna. Får väl se hur de går idag Sverige behöver ju poäng mer än England.
Ang här hemma så har det varit fint väder en sväng igen men nu lagom till midsommar så kommer givetvis det regniga vädret. (som vanligt) Gothia firar 30 år i år så de har abbonerat Fun City med lite extra aktiviteter och uppträde för personal med fam o kunder osv på torsdag o då blir det som det ser ut nu dåligt väder men vi får väl hoppas att regnet håller sig borta. Personalen ska även åka till Island på kick off i början av oktober det ska bli spännande för det är ett land som jag länge velat åka till. För övrigt så går allt sin gilla gång här hemma. Kram Mamma

Well,after looking at your latest 71 photos we were certainly ready for bed -very exhausting seeing so many but well worth it !We were very impressed that Linda had the sense to wear a hat and gloves-where were yours Phil ???-you looked absolutely frozen.We really are taken with the black and white pictures and we definately want to have some enlarged as pictures to put on our walls-they are awsome !!! Was that a fossil or a creature Linda was holding ?If it was a fossil I hope you put it in your case to bring home as it looked a beauty .We bet you are becoming excited as you travel on to New Zealand ,you must have oodles of mementos to bring home.-I hope you have room in your bag for a didgeridoo (or not ) Dad says you have to try hard not to fall out over the England /Sweden match,talk about divided loyalty !!!!
When Mr Hutchinson will you ever get round to sending us an E-Mail? we miss your little messages -consider yourself told off !!!! We hope this last part of your adventures is as brilliant as the rest ,you must be dreading the end of such an exciting trip ,still you have another month to go so know need to think about coming home just yet . Weather gone a bit nippier just now,but still not bad. Pottering on as usual and counting the days till the hols.We miss you both so very ,very much.Continue to enjoy every second.
Much love and hugs Mum and Dad xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey jess you little scrumptious (freckly) crumpet. Bon Jovi's old enough to be your Dad you naughty girl! (Phils comment!). (Lin) No I think he's hot...so I don't blame you at all. Did you get any pics? Good to hear it's nice and sunny at home. It's bloody cold here in Adelaide. Off to NZ in a few days. Take care sweetie. Lots of love, Phil and Lin X

Hello darlings!
You both ok? Im doing ok at the mo! Been really hot here lately, so nice! All my freckles have come out though, never a good look! Went to see Bon Jovi last weekend and am still trying to recover from the sheer sexiness of Jon Bon Jovi......truly, i nearly died. Never seen anything so gorgeous and brilliant in my life.....you can imagine the ridiculous state i got myself into!! Pathetic really, but hey, i have to have some pleasures in life!
Your photos are amazing, i love looking at them! You'll have such a collection when you get back! Lots of love and kisses, your favourite Essex girl x x x x x x x x x

Wow ,the photos are getting better and better ,we think you should make a career in being a professional photographer Phil,we see what you mean though Linda with him being so trigger happy! We loved the pictures in the zoo,especially the Joeys and the Koala bears-just gorgeous ! What a shock we had when we saw the football match photos.........we could not believe that you had ALIEN raincoats on and not Micky mouse !!!!!!!What were you thinking of ?? You looked freezing cold in the Blue mountains but we thought the scenery was breath-taking.Your boat trip pictures looked great too -what a magical time you are having. Thanks for the costing out of our retirement money although we doubt we are quite as brave as to blow it all on holidays for the next 10 years !!! If we did that we would have to spend our remaining old age living with you -(sorry Linda ).We will still keep playing the lottery!
Life at home is becoming back to normal after a never ending 9 weeks .The garden is now finished except for the gazebo which doesnt seem to be making an appearance !!! We had our first barbeque the other night and enjoyed sitting in the garden with a few glasses of wine until quite late .We are very pleased with the finished result and can now sit back and enjoy it. It has been very hot in England for the last couple of weeks -a welcome change. I am counting the weeks until I break up for summer -3 and a half to go. Andrew is well and still enjoying the hotel service we provide-he is paragliding today.

Next world Cup match tomorrow v T&T - it will be 2 a.m. KO your time, so perhaps just watch the highlights! Next one after that v Sweden will be 5 a.m. on Wed 21st. Are you getting up for that one???

Take great care and keep in touch.
Love Mum and Dadxxxx

Hej Mamma.Philip bara skrattade nar jag beratta vad du tyckte om hans rumpa. Tur att du gillade min morsdag halsning. Att skicka ett kort hade tagit for lang tid ser du. Kunde inte komma pa nagot annat. Och sa kunde jag ju inte ringa heller eftersom vi inte hade nagon telefon. Att segla runt Whitsunday oarna var helt otroligt. Vi hade sadan tur att vi sag tre rockor som kom simmade langs med baten. Philip och jag hoppade i och simmade med dem. De ar ca 2.5 meter. Inga smafiskar precis. Sag en haj ocksa. Men den lag och sov pa botten. Har nu kommit fram till Brisbane. Vi har varit ute och kampat pa Fraser Island de senaste tre dagarna. Vi var ett gang pa 9 personer. Skriver mer i dagboken senare. I morgon aker vi vidare till Sydney (18 timmar i en buss!!!!!!). Jag ringer om jag overlever. Manga kramar Linda och Philip
