Yo Yo little sis!

How's the weather with you now? Boiling or raining?

We had yet MORE snow last night, but not where my school is so teaching today. Boooooo.

Just wanted to let you know I'll hopefully be back up and running on internet and skype tomorrow so will be able to speak to you again. Have missed you since Christmas when we got to talk loads!

Anyway, best had get off - year 11 here any minute. Love you loads xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Smile web, you're going to come face to face with a great white! And don't forget, in Darwin you can do the same with a great big croc!xxxxxxxxxxx

haha looks awesome eh!!! can't wait!!!! woooooo looking at doing more of the Northern Territory now after talking to Lorna it's meant to be really amazing. xxxxxxxx

Just been looking at the website for your cagedive. Are you mad or what?

Lots of love mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

WOW!!!!!!

Im so glad that you have finally booked yourself on to do something. I am presuming that by now you have also booked you trip to Ayres rock with or without company?

Diving with sharks sounds a bit mad but then you always were that way inclined!

Abbamania was brilliant. The best New Years eve that we have had for years! Unfortunately its done my back in with all the crazy dancing but ill survive and it was worth it.

Could you not teach English in Thailand? Or we could club together and buy you an Air Ticket for China/Japan for your birthday? Not that we dont want you to come home you understand. Just seems silly that now you re out there and worked so hard for the last 3 months it seems daft to just come home when you have so many plans.

Just finished talking t you on skype. Love you lots and looking forward to having you home sometime this year. Love mumxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Oh my god so excited!!!! I have just booked all travel and the daytrip to swim with a great white shark in january!!!! (in a cage obviously!!!) COst a bomb but so wanna do it.

Could well be home by february as the dive and ayers rock are mega expensive and I'm being taxed upto my eyeballs. Possible weeks holiday in Thailand first though if anyone would like to join?

so excited!!!!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hiya it is now Sunday 27th so Christmas is over till next year. However dad and I still have New Year celebrations with Abbamania at the Tavola Calda!

It was sad not to talk to you on christmas day Debbie after we had arranged to do so but im glad you had found somewhere to go and celebrate. Did that lady make it to work at 9 or did she just fall asleep?

Sally and Toby bought me a helicopter ride for christmas so ive got to sort that out when I get a chance. Dad bought me lots of underwear and a Nintendo DS to keep me occupied. I also had lots of books to read and other bits and pieces too so it was all very nice.

Keep working hard Deb and book that trip to Ayres rock. I look forward to hearing that you have done that.

Love you lots mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

yep yep yep with baby!!!!! wooooooooooooooooooooooooo xxxxxxxxxxx

lucy when do you go on skype?!!! I'm always signed in when i'm in just in case. tends to be 10pm onwards aussie time until i get whiplash from nodding dog syndrome!! haha xxx

IT'S CHHHRRRRIIIIISSSTMMMAAAAASSS!!!! Happy happy christmas Shaws and Dudleys, in snowy england and sunny oz.

I'm missing you all like crazy today, but chris is taking good care of me. We made a lovely roast (not as good as mums on a normal sunday, but i tried!), and filled the hostel with christmas tunes.

Lots of love guys xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Mummy and Sally enjoyed the pictures of the tin horse highway but are unable to move far at the moment due to over indulging at Wing Wahs!

Sally and daddy were both total gluttons as they even had puddings!

Looking forward to seeing the photo of your new haircut tomorrow morning so it had better be there when we get up. Have you recieved any more parcels yet?

Love mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
