Guys we are trying to get pics up but the computer is being idiotic!!!! lol We were waiting for a Sydney album for you.

We fly out to New Zealand tomorrow afternoon...or tonight maybe for you guys? time difference is crazy!!! anyway hopefully in the next few minutes you will see pics.

Aunty Sue we need an email of Dylan smiling!

Not much more to say really, went to China Town last night with Ash and Harri and met up with Andy (friend from uni) today before hitting the Australian Museum.

Hi Guys! Hope you remembered the union jack flags in your sandcastles on bondi beach which you obviously had plenty of time to build along with the three legged crab racing and drowning lessons!! What fun, it all sounds amazing!!!! Our little Munchkin Dylan has been here today, he is now laughing and smiling and looks very cute in his first pair of jeans! Enjoy New Zealand lotslove and hugs xxxxxx

I agree! where are the photos! we demand photos!

I'm surprised at that. I thought it was crap, but chelsea liked it and as I had to put up with it for an entire seasons length (was absolute agony), i thought it was your type of thing.

The crab racing sounds quite funny... gives me an idea for chicken racing...

debbie wheres the photos?? sort it out woman :D xx

Hey Debs and Lucy!

Sounds like you are having a great time. Also rather impressed that you arent burnt to a crisp! Thats some acheivement Debs!

When your mum mentioned your ankle I thought it was a repeat of our holiday ha. No one wants a burnt ankle like that!! Glad its all ok.

Glad you finally posted something as well, so I know you are safe and having a great time! Knew you would! I bet you will love New Zealand, regular updates please!!!!

Nothing really happening here. Festival started yesterday and going ok so far, feel like I've been hit by a bus though.

Have fun and take care both of you. :)

Hey Debbie ( bebbie from charlie), We hope you're enjoying yourself lots and lots but Charlie really wanted to come on that aeroplane with you and come to the beach lol. We miss you lots and lots, we've got no one decent to play with!!!! Lots of hugs and kisses, Ciaran and Charlie x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

Yeah at last a new entry. All is well on the home front. Ben came for the weekend but didn t really see him much as he went to Matthews stag night. Not much fun from what i gather. Did manage to beat him at monopoly so thats probably why he went back to Keele straight after dinner! Looking forward to Krakow in a couple of weeks so should have something more interesting to say then. Love you both lots. Keep safe and carry on enjoying yourselves. Mum xxxxxxx

pps.. sal big congrats on job front, not suprised though, you're a natural dear.
really going now, lots of love everyone xxxxx

ps. ben britannia high was the biggest disappointment of my life i practically cried myself to sleep!!! rubbish! xxxxx

Well g'day mateys!!!!

thought i'd just post a message back as lucy is now busily working on the next blog entry to fulfil all your needs. i'm sure you're all concerned about my mystery ankle problems so fear not it's all good. went over on it when partaking in the inflatable boat race but i am in fact supportfree and limpless.

dad you'll be pleased to know i spend a good half hour every morning suncreaming and then top up on arrival at destination so after a whole week i have like 2 small and unpainful strips of slight burn. woohooo yay me!!!

there have been lots of shark attacks recently but we're unphased as i plan to wrestle a crocodile anyway which is more dangerous!!! haha plus sharks are easy just punch them in the nose or...dont swim too far out and avoid dawn/dusk.

aunty sue it rained like a monsoon yesterday so we are not missing the rain!!! lol come on dave's horse!!!!! bonzer!!!!

cant believe you're having fancy dress murder mystery without us but i'm sure we'll find something to do! lol so looking forward to new zealand it's gonna be awesome. our new hostel room is minging so looking forward to getting out of there!! haha thankfully harri has just witnessed it so we may go to theirs for a few more dinners!

right so, my quick message is becoming a blog on it's own.

la'erz dudes
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Well everyone else seems to have found this before us....but i'm in agreement with Ben! You may be having lots of fun but "those of us left behind" would like to hear more about it please!

Good news on the job point...had an interview for that promotion i was talking about and...got the job! So as of September i will be a lead teacher of science rather than just an ordinary teacher! How cool is that! Funny thing is...i'll still officially be an nqt too!

Love you both lots - huge hugs and kisses from us both
