Helen Hi Soapy Your message board looks a bit empty so I thought I would say hi. What a great time you all seem to be having - I'm jealous as not having a hol this year but hoping to go to Australia next Xmas to visit Rich's brother! I think you are back in August aren't you - hopefully see you when you get back xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Jo Hey Soph, Erin & Nath, Had a lovely sunny Easter. Went camping and sat in the sun at a beer festival / vineyard. Prob not quiet the same as actually being at Jacobs Creek tho! 3 months and counting til I come out for the end of your trip. Haven't booked it up yet though. xxxxxx

Gemma Hi Soph Firstly, sorry for not emailing you a lot sooner. I know I’ve been crap. Just never seem to have the time as I want to write more than a couple of lines and when I do have the time, I never have Matt’s bloody internet connection! Ha ha! Sounds like your having an amazing time. You make me jealous every time I read your updates! I’m planning a catch up with Kath and Christine over Easter. Wont be the same without you! L Matt and I are going to Paphos for a week after Easter. Cant wait! Really need a break although am not hopeful of getting a tan!! So have you met any nice men on your travels? Any worth mentioning?? Christine has started seeing someone from work, They are only going to Thailand together for 2 weeks! Shared interest apparently??!! Doesn’t do anything by halves does she! Ha ha! Anyway hun, make sure you keep safe. Missing you lots xx

Jen Hi Erin, Just wanted to say 'Hi' again - I'm still missing you but happy to see what a great time you're having.....can't think why you'd want to be in NZ getting a sun tan when you could be building snowmen over here and watching the UK come to a grinding halt because it can't handle a bit of snow!!! How can you not like Jager Bombs....they taste like cough medicine....but I remember the after effects all too well as well!? x
