Hey chaps

Just had a quick look at your updated journal, the spring sounded amazing! Loved the pics of Karekare Falls reminded me of Hawaii -all tropical! Guess what Sam? I saw your old car yesterday on Penpillick Hill!! Couldn't believe it and was gona wave but then remembered no point! You're not wrong weather here has been bad, thunder and lightening last night, luckily Thornton didn't start howling at 3 in the morning! Lovely day today though. The choccie drink/heart attack looked yummy, make sure you treat us to one!

Have you guys got a job yet ready for Auz? We're trying to decide what to dress up at this New Year, any ideas?....

Love Rachel, Chris and Thornton (sloppy kiss)

Hi Samantha. Fancy buying a car with leaky rad? Sometimes chewing gum works wonders. Never mind, it's wheels.
Pics are brill and the views are fantastic. Glad to see you've met some other dimented people, they should be good company. The wild life seems fantastic, but probably not as wild as you and em. Grans and Grandad send theire love. We showed them some pics of you and Em. They enjoyed them. Have a good time
