Happy Xmas to you both. Hope you had a lovely time. Glad you arrived in NZ safely.
We went to mum and dad's for Christmas Day, and on Boxing day we all went for a drink out in South Woodham Ferrers. It was very pleasant.
It is very cold here now, was snowing this morning. Snow is also expected within the next couple of days.

Happy New Year to you and will speak shortly.

Hello to you both. Hope everything is ok with you and that the weather is good. I have been checking up on what to do and where to go in Auckland on the web, but no doubt you have already been on the website, from the info it looks pretty good. Have made visit to Abbey so no doubt this is with you both now. I will try to ring on Christmas Eve as I understand the difference in time is 12+ hours. Everyone is o.k. although Michelle has a bad cold. Dog a little poorly but still with us and the teeth are as sharp as ever! No doubt this year he will miss your feet! Are you having trouble putting the latest photos on? Will ring soon, Lots of love MUM

hey martin hey kerry, hope your both having fun wherever you are. Have a Great Xmas and New Year ! Staysafe. Joe (GoneWalkAbout Hostel in Cairns) : )

Martin & Kerry, Just finsihed looking at the last instalment (Nov) and am looking forward to seeing December's batch, please no more of Teeth in a wet suit - I tend to have a look after lunch and its not the best sight on a full stomach!! Joking of course, little Harry is now 7 weeks and getting bigger all the time. I met Joshua the day Harry was born by cioncidence as he was been driven by Mummy and Daddy along my road, as I was waving goodbye to my rellies from the doorstep and Mark happened to be driving past he swereved and proceeded to block my family on the drive - all four cars worth! it was classic Mark paying absolutely no attention, Michelle looked totally embrassed - It was f***ing hillarious. It was nice to catch up with them though and your nephew is a cracker.

Take care, Kris & Ailsa
