Hi Lisa
Happy New Year, bit belated I know but the thought was there!
Glad you are enjoying Oz, sounds like there is so much to see and do. Mike is coming out there in 3 weeks with his mate. He is really looking forward to it.
I am looking forward to hearing about NZ as you know my bruv is now living there and I would like to see it through your eyes for a change.
Love the pictures and the diary. Time is ticking away, so enjoy while you can.
Love Jac x

Well - I recognise some of those views of Melbourne and the Ocean Road trip form Lucy's travels ! Looks like your having fun still. I am flying out to Ireland tonight - for work but hopefully I'll get to have a bit of a look around too (so it's not all bad !) - am just excited to be flying anywhere !
Take care !

Hi, hope all is well, I am sure it is. Well what are you missing, rain, rain and rain so basically nothing at all. I found it really wierd texting you on New Years Eve knowing that you were already in 2007 and we were getting ready to celebrate it, really couldn't get my head around that at all. Anyway it was the normal celebrations over here no barbies, but the decorations are down and now its just gloomy January so keep the picture coming to cheers us all up. Take Care x

Happy New Year to you both! Did you have A barby on the beach in Oz? How weird! Can't believe you are halfway through your travels it has gone so quickly, can't wait to see you in March.

Hi Ed. Last day at the office before New Year, so I thought I'd wish you all the best for the rest of your travels in 2007. Despite significant provocation, we didn't Kill Bill over Christmas, so he may survive until you get back! I have taken refuge in alcohol to see me through the winter period and will welcome you back with a proper pint (none of the Aussie rubbish) on your return. Watch out for the thornbacks. Baz

Love always Mam howard and Mary xxxx

Lisa & Ed
Thanks for all your messages and e-mails, we are thinking about you all too as we celebrate Christmas in Perth. It is very strange and doesn't feel like Christmas as it is just too hot! The best thing though is that the shops are not packed, the roads are not jammed and we can just relax! We are celebrating Christmas with Will & Jane - Jane's daughter is cooking for 13 of us and we are looking forward to an aussie Christmas. Hope you all have a great time and a very happy new year. Lisa & Ed
P.S. Mary - miss you all too. Glad you got your birthday presents and card xx
