Hey guys, we had a very lovely time with sal and toby last week, and can't wait to have them back again! We had lots of foor and some drinkies. Our favourite discovery being the local greek restaurant. they had no menus, just brought you greek food, then made us do the most mental greek dancing ever! my favourite moment being when the waiter picked debbie out, tied a tea towel round her head and told her to belly dance!!!!!!!

I have chris arriving tomorrow and i cannot wait! Its been 5 and a half months apart now so i'm very excited! (and you will not be hearing form me for the next few days...)

Looking forward to visits from mum and dad so mcuh, not long now!

Mum, i hope you've had better luck with work this week xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Sally and Toby land in 7 hours, so exciting!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys, very exciting!!!!!!

Ben that old gem of a snorkelling story did come up a few times but I managed to control my singing urges. Of course they didn't laugh at us selling stickers - they thought it was a very good idea but mostly said they'd send off themselves! doh. The boys are making a mint from it, dunno how they do it!

Your flat sounds very posh indeed I must say and would definitely put our excuse for a residence to shame but we've grown to love it.

We think Mum and Dads idea for you to pay for a return trip for everyone is a great one we 3rd and 4th the suggestion!!

Hey mum, can't wait for you guys to get here, we're counting the hours now til Sal arrives and the weeks til you and dad get here, so exciting!!!
The cheapest option for the campervan would be good as we're pretty skint - Lucy hasn't found work yet and I have 4 hours a week!! Doh. The landlord may have a bit of painting for Lucy but it's not confirmed yet. Will still be fantastic though, we have cards for canasta!!

ps - Dad, no spider hunting!!!!!

Have just read your updated blog entries which were very informative. I am glad to see that you both still point your toes when doing straddle jumps on the trampoline! Your house looks interesting to say the least I am only hoping the one in Perth lives up to expectations and doesnt have boarded up windows and the like.

Dad and I have been looking at camper vans for our little road trip and cant decide whether to hire one big enough for us all to sleep in which comes complete with shower and toilet or one for the two of us and hire the rest of you a tent. What do you think?

Cant believe that when I waved Sally and Toby off at 6 o clock this morning that the next time I will see her will be in Perth. Its suddenly becoming very real!

Havent had any work this week due to weather so i m hoping for better this week otherwise you ll be taking me out rather than the other way round.

Only 4 weeks then ill be seeing you and daddy 5 days later and he wants to do an outback exploration to look for spiders and possums!

Love you both and still miss you all the time. Love mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

having just read that you went snorkelling debz, i have to ask... did you entertain all on the boat by singing down your snorkel?

hey guys!

sounds like your having fun! have you looked at where me and chelsea will be living for the next year? i by the sounds of it its in much better shape than where your living now. hehe.

do you actually have jobs now? Got to say i found it hilarious that you were doing door to door sales selling dont knock stickers! how did people take that? did they laugh at you everytime?

not very happy that your causing the rest of my family to take off to australia soon. i feel very left out. but thats life of course. although mum and dad think that if i do well as a solicitor i should pay for us all to go back out for a reunion.... i think not!

so yeah, not much new with me really, am just very excited about moving to london now that we have a flat to move into!! its a 2 bedroom flat, however it has moving walls so you can make it into a 1 (or even 0) bedroom with a mahoosive living area. so we shall be able to host the next murder mystery as planned! :-)

hope your both well

Ginny is the pits. xxxx

dad we've been informed that you're coming - please confirm, we're very excited!!!! we have an early christmas planned!!!!

you have to get more chickens, they're hilarious!!! how do you guys feel about a new zealand house guest - possibly my travel partner!!!

rois always great to hear from you, we went to see harry on wednesday - not impressed by ginny but a good film nevertheless. thanks for the tips.

xxxxxxx

Hiya Girls,

getting strange here without seeing you guys for so long. Sounds like you are having fun though!! Still not sure about whether I'll be coming out there - bit complicated....... Have supplied small gift to you both to help on expenses - enjoy...!!!

Was only joking on getting more chickens - 2 are destructive enough for now - they keep trying to dig Marjory up !!!

Keep well & happy - miss you both. lots of love. Daddy xxxxx

Go back to Melbourne Deb - Melbourne loves you. If you've got good admin experience, and you're going to stick around for a while, send your CV via email to Robyn Cartwright - good agency on Collins St. They INVITE you for interview though, so you've got to be the real deal...

Greasy Joes in St Kilda seemed to take on staff easily enough.

Hope you're all keeping well ladies. Me and Snoph went to Harry Potter last night - Birm IMAX in 3D - amazing! Amy and I have our own place in Brum now too, so we'll have to have a big night out when y'all are back. Stay safe, lots of lovexxxxxxx

ps. are you keeping up with Aussie Rules? Will you go to a game? carlton are the prettiest if so ! xxx

Just read about your sea kayaking adventure.Made me laugh out loud so well done!

Don t know about Dad . It will all probably be last minute knowing him so you ll just have to wait and see. He is talking about getting more chickens on saturday so that should be amusing.

Ben and I are going into work to be till trained today (as if neither of us knows how to do that) but at least its another couple of hours pay which im sure you appreciate.

I am so looking forward to my holiday now i feel like i m already there and having ozzy barbies in the sunshine and lying on the beach and everything. Cant wait!

Love you both lots and cant wait to see you mum xxxxxxxxxxx

haha mum that sounds awesome and very exciting!!! hope the rest of the week has gone well too.

We managed to spend $15 each getting to Geelong and then only made $15 between us!! the boys did a lot better but to be fair they did put alot more effort in!!

We've handed out a load more CVs so hopefully something will come from that.

I'm now thinking about coming back to Melbourne after Perth as we've made some good friends and hopefully one of them is able to get me (Deb) a job at her work. Fingers crossed.

Can't wait to see you (What's the latest on Dad)
