Hi Eric & Margaret.

Sorry we have not been in touch for some time.. But Xmas hols have arrived and now got the time to do all the things we have been wanting to do and should have been doing for some time.

Cant believe this is your second Xmas on your travels. Fantastic to be able to tap into your big adventure at the press of a button. So much fascinating info. This is certainly one where you cant say 'What goes on tour stays on tour'.

We're gathering our nearest and dearest around us on Xmas day, then all heading on a pilgrimage to Montrose on Boxing Day, so I hope there is room at the inn - the Golf Inn that is.

We hope you have a great time celebrating Xmas in Penang, which I'm sure must be a huge cultural change from Oz. Keep soaking up this wonderful experience, cause we cant wait to see you in the flesh and hear all about it (included the bits on the cutting room floor!)

Remember no drinking - its bad for you.

Have a really Merry Xmas and (needless to say) a very Happy and Exciting New Year.

hi E & M. Sorry we missed your phone calls on Sunday. It was lovely to hear your messages and we loved your singing!!! I tried to text you to say "call back we are here" but for some reason the text wouldn't send to either of your mobiles. Oh well thats technology for you.

We're all set for Christmas day. Presents wrapped, just a food shop to do on sunday along with all the other hundred and thousands of xmas shoppers!!

Only 3 weeks till baby arrives now. Will keep you posted as soon as there is any news. Feeling large and tired but generally not too bad.

Mum, dad, Gillian and myself are off up into town tomorrow night for something to eat and then off to see War of the worlds at the O2. Really looking forward to it.

Hope all is well with you both and you reach your xmas destination safely. Merry Christmas to you both. Hope to speak soon.

Lots of Love

Hi Eric and Margaret

Sending this Christmas message in sub zero temperatures in Epsom. Don't know where you are but wishing you both a great time over the next festive week, and if you do end up in Penang please have a toast with us on Christmas day perhaps on a beach somewhere----mines a gin and tonic, and Paulines a glass of white----so don't forget to pour them out and drink them on our behalf ! Naomi and Leila send their love. To be frank you have both been gone too long now and we all miss you. Will send an email before the New Year.

Hi Eric and Margaret

As I type this you are into your last few hours in Australia and if it is anything like when you left here it will be a frantic time of trying to get everything into your rucksacks.

Good luck on the next stage of your big adventure and we hope that you have a very Happy Christmas and New Year. I am sure that you will be spoken about quite a lot as we all celebrate Christmas with Gillian, Stuart. Julie, Rob and Hannah.

Bon Voyage and hope we can speak again before too long.

Love Pam and Jim

Just a quick final message before you leave Australia and we leave Aberdeen to head for Edinburgh! Thanks for the Christmas greetings and we were all glad you both enjoyed our Christmas greetings to you.Hope to be able to speak soon.

Love Ron and Dot.xxx

Hiiii! Just few words to wish you Happy Christmas and the best for 2008. I have sent you several sms to virgin e-mail adress, I just want to know if you've got them. Have a good time in Malaysia AGAIN!.

Love.
