Sal Hi Nat! Hope you had a great 24th! Tried sending you an sms but it didn't work. Love all the photos.  You're such a lucky girl!  Wish I was there with you ... but also glad you'll be coming back at the end of the month. Can't wait to catch up! Much luv, Sal

Uncle Ian Hi Nat,Just received the link. Good stuff and looks like you're having a great time.Hope you had a great 24th  Lots of love and see you soon XX

Rushall Still loving all the news and photos!! Don't worry about being selfish, Tracey, I miss her too! 8 months is such a long time! Very jealous of all the travel - particularly hard to take while I am trying to study!! Happy Birthday for tomorrow!! Luv and hugs, Rush :) xx

Tracey *glares jealously at screen*

Tracey Keep informing me of your travels and travails and I may be forced to take drastic action *gazes wistfully at globe* Will be glad when you are home again. Selfish I know but I miss you. Keep well and stay away from foriegn men who would lure you away from us. T

sisters This message is to mark the second time elle has seen this page- but hey, it looks great. Allo swoitheart! Hope all is well and you're counting down to your end of work big tour... Love ya! ps- mum, dad and elle are taking care of your nation... H and E

Mum Haven't logged on in a while so was surprised at the new look site - clean, fresh, and easier to navigate. Keep posting, it's always great to see where you've been and read about your adventures. Love, Mum.

Sal Hi Nat! Just wanted to say 'Hello, Hello' from Down Under as it's been awhile. Your photos of Scotland are great! Thinking of you, as always. Luv, Sal

Glenys I do believe those bedroom shots are staged (or at least in transition to less than tidy). I hope that you at least have clothes draped over the back of your chair and endless pieces of paper littering your desk by now. I also noted the tube of Vegemite on your desk. It's like home, but yeasty! Love the stories, our little Australian. Maybe your mother's warnings about strange men are right, though. You might get turned into prosciutto if you actually manage to beat them at boules... We miss you lots and hope you're having lots of fun! Glenys & Sandy

Kath Your photos are beautiful nat! I remember some of those incredibly skinny buildings built on the equivalent of a median strip in the middle of the roads. Scary! It's heaps of fun just walking around Paris, admiring the people and culture, but if you'd like to get around to further away places the buses are first rate! The train system (once you've worked it out that is) is fairly good, although more expensive. Glad to hear you made friends of the petanques players too! 9 is an admirable score Nat. Take care of yourself and keep those journal entries coming girl! Love from Kath

Sal Hi Nat, what an adventure! can't wait to hear some more. Hope all is going well. i've been thinking of you often, especially on the days we used to catch up, and wondering what next you'll be doing and where ... anyways, much love and many hugs, i'll hear from you soon! luv, Sal

Bec Yes - cruel cruel people taunting us like that!! We should ask them if they'll send us for free!! But anyway - Hi Nat! It sounds already like you're having fun... I can't wait to hear more about, well, EVERYTHING, and I'm looking forward to seeing the photos of you guys perfecting the art of snowmen when it comes to winter!! If you need any Aussie essentials sent out let me know!! Love Bec

Rushall Was just thinking exactly the same thing as Glenys!!! Really very cruel of these ppl to so blantantly advertise to those stuck at home, wishing they were there. However, very much enjoyed both the diary entry and the photos!! Looks like you have started to unpack, which must be nice! Luv and hugs, Rush :) xx
