Just a real quick one to say thanks for all the Xmas emails and hope to speak to you all soon. Trying to get a job (A WHAT???) to earn some money so we can actually go out and see a bit of Melbourne. Spent NYE mopping up the flat after the washing machine flooded and we found ourselves under two inches of water. Pants. Got it all sorted just in time to head out to Federation Square, watch the fireworks then head home again. sweet.

Take care all

As you can imagine Ken was really excited and i had a terrible night trying to keep him in bed!!!! He first got up at 11.30.....then was about every hour till 7!!!!!!!!  Bless him he gets soooooo excited still but it keeps it all fresh for us especially as the girls are all grown up and dont get excited about Father Christmas and Rudolf coming down the chimney any more!!!!

Hello everybody,

firstly and most importantly I would like to say a big CONGRATULATIONS to Stubles (for having a general that works) and the lovely delectable Katie (mum to be).  Thats brilliant news guys, we're both really pleased, if a bit dissapointed that we wont be there to see Katie swell up like a ripe juicy water melon.  We will require regular updates of course. Hospital appointments, scans etc.  Are you going to find out the sex of the wee bean or will it be a surprise?  Unfortunately we haven't seen any pompey football kits over here otherwise Neil would be sending you one quicker than stuey can say liverpool fc. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! (and about time)

So we don't have any news of our own quite so exciting, but we do have somewhere to live for Christmas. Which is a bonus.  Its a one bed flat with parking just outside the city.  The good news is we can move in tomorrow.  The bad news is its unfurnished. The worse news is that because we don't have jobs (yet) we have to pay all the rent for the full lease term which has just about cleaned us out.  But hey, at least we wont have to sleep in the car any more!!!

We've had a look around the city and its pretty impressive.  Lots of bars and stuff looking for workers so as soon as we 've moved all our stuff (two rucksacks and an inflatable mattress) into the flat and hired a washing machine etc, we are city bound to find ourselves some jobs to pay for it all.   The agencies i've spoken to recon there will be plenty of CAD work after Christmas hols so no worries there.  Thats about it for now.  Have to get back to the car before the ticket runs out.  Could do without that!

Love you all.  Take care xxxx Especially you Katie Kate (you are going to have to get Stubes to do all the housework from now on as you can't possibly do any heavy lifting or vigorous polishing) Check you laters dudes.  And Have a good Christmas!!!! xxxxx Mandy

Johnny, you b*****d! How did you find out? Well I suppose we have been rumbled so had better come clean...

We got the idea for our 'swinging' adventures from Fraser's new website  www.gaysportsforall.cum. I couldn't believe how informative it was. It gave us so many ideas on how to enhance our sex life. From midget bondage to plain old dressing up, it's been a revelation! There's plenty of photo's on there for inspiration. Who'd have thought that Fraser would look so good in a size 12!! Stunning!!

Anyhoo, now we have seen Johnny, we can go public! For all those that know us and indeed if there is anyone else out there that still pays a visit to Neiler & Trub's finally crafted (if not updated) website and again if anyone gives a toss....mmmnnnn, Katie's 11 weeks pregnant! That's right my little General works!

Happy days, one more of us for the shire!

Love you all

thought i'd ruin stuy and kates good news!

the thing they want to go public about is their new found hobby "swinging"!

stu gets dressed up like jan molbey and kate makes a remarkabley sassy attempt at  carrying off "rusty lee"

tuesday night in some secluded spot at denmead, you may catch them with "jerk chicken" and a liverpool top signed by all the players. and stu also sports a bean bag stuffed up his top, in homage to his hero.

or was i misinformed by mandy? let me know?

Hello everybody (said in my best blokey off the Simpsons - Nick Riviera?)

Just a quickie to say we have arrived in melbourne and England are going to win the Ashes. Well one out of two isn't bad. Now i know some of you are getting pissy about the site cos i haven't kept up with the postcards and as a result it still says we're in Malaysia. The thing is, the amazing package we got with the laptop which the guy swore was MSWord compatible isn't. So now we have to get them all on by going all wireless Internet on ourselves which is proving slightly difficult as i haven't the foggiest how to set it up. Hopefully we'll get to a decent Internet cafe with a resident cyber geek to sort me out. On the plus side i do have a shedload ready to go on so get your specs ready.

Hey you guys! (said in Goonies stylie)

Just seen the new (ish) piccies, look fab as normal. What is it with Aussies and giant paper mache structures? They are everywhere out there?! If you come across the huge Ayers Rock (as it was back then) on the pacific highway (somewhere) get a pic for me? had my 21st birthday there!

All quiet back here. Working hard, getting ready for Christmas and giving Johnny freebies!                            Nothing to report really ........or was there something...... might go public after we've seen Johnny this Friday night!

Love you both and miss you both loads

Take it easy!

ok my passports come through, off to buy my ticket next week to come see you two chumps, and i'm going to raid stuy and kates travelling facilities ie ipod rucksack etc!

If any family and friends want me to take anything (such as xmas cards,small pressies etc) then let me know i'm going there in april!

on a lighter note, there's a new "jack the ripper" style serial killer around! knocking off ladies of the night, and early indications show that it's possibly a member of the co-op! they are always odd balls who work there!

oh yeah fraser keeps asking people to check out his www.gaysportsforall.cum website, which tony tells me is highly charged thanks to lucozade!

ok have a good xmas and don't forget the "dingo ate my baby" saying, which has to said like a mantra at least thrice daily to any aussie you come across!
