Sounds like you're still having a totally fab time, as are we! Such a great drunken idea to go travelling! Only problem is the severe lack of cash which is not so good. In oz early so won't be in Sydney for 18th etc which is a blow but not to worry, i appear to have a homecoming bash being organised at Hotel Handy for my return so we all know we'll be hooking up then! Can't wait to see you guys and swap horror stories or just marvel about how great it is!
Enjoy the rest of your trip and keep me updated on job ben when back, love El xxx
Ben
OK so we're back safe after our 14,000ft freefall, it was totally amazing, still shaking but as they say here it put a smile on our dial!! Anyway speak soon, Ben x

Hey guys, just sat in the sky dive office at the moment waiting for the plane to come back, have just parted with $880 so we can both jump and see it again on DVD!! Just wanted to dispel the rumour a certain man is spreading about us coming back tomorrow, unfortunately for all of you we still have a month left so you will have to wait a bit longer!! Will try to update the journal soon as I know you all love reading my long entries!! Take Care and if the parachute doesn't open Love you Mum!! Ben xx

Well that gives us time to make alternative arrangements !!!
Only kidding sister.
In all serious, we need to speak about dates as we will arrange the barbecue when you are down and try and make sure all the travellers, students, hangers on (Matt, Ewan & Johnny!!) can make the date.
Sara & Ben are back 1st July. World cup final is 9th & Philippa & I are away on the 7th July.
When do Ben & Maggie (Gill) get back?
When does Ducky get repatriated (ie chucked out of USA)
Liz are you ever coming to Leeds?
Amanda, will you get time off from Shelling Peas?? Bring some to the party, they'll keep the beer cool.
The only person I haven't insulted is Philippa. well seen I'm going home tonight!!
Linsey are you at home or in Leeds at the moment. Won't want to leave you out. We need someone to keep Ewan company on the couch. Honest Laurie I'm only kidding, it was really Sabre.
Time to go

Suzi
Hi - just read through all your journals and pictures - looks like you're having an amazing time! Your dad told me all about it when he phoned today - although aparently my mum told me about it a while ago - don't think i was listening (shock horror!) so this is the first time I've seen it!
Just back from a wee trip to France - was really good! Not doing much at home - attempting to find a job (by attempting I mean looking on the internet for tips on writing a good CV and not much else) so probably going to have to head back to Edinburgh soon!
Glad you're having fun and I'll see you at your birthday!
Much love Suzi xx
