Great to speak to you today and lovely to hear your giggles again. You seem to be having a wonderful time. You are certainly seeing a lot of oz. Nothing to report. Dad's working tomorrow so Im in the garden!!!!Been out today to the garden centre, off to have a thai meal tonight in Kettering. Sarah and Steve are coming with the twins for lunch on Sunday, I'm doing an early lunch so they can leave mid afternoon and have sometime to themselves. Steve blew up their bouncy castle yesterday and Sarah said they loved it. Well must go now and do some work.

Hi, Hope you are enjoying yourselves in Aussie and not suffering from the heat. We called in to see Steph's mum last Tuesday and thank you very much for the gifts you sent to us via Christine. It was lovely to see Christine and we tried to put the world to right as you can imagine!! We are off tomorrow for a week so we might not be sending you any messages for a while unless we can find a computer, but we are always thingking of you. The weather has been really warm today and had lunch with nan and grandad at the nursery. I went to see my mum yesterday and she is well. She is having the outside of her house painted at the moment so is being kept busy making tea etc.
We saw David's Midget which looked very impressive, we liked the names Mia and Ben on the front and hoping to arrange a day out together to watch him race. Not sure when yet.
Are you celebrating Easter this weekend with chocolate eggs - if so have one on us. Are you still cooking for yourselves? As always take care of yourselves loads of love Mum and Dad xxxxxxx

How is it down under? Sounds like your having a good time. Did you enjoy Airlie beach and the whitsundays? Heard lots of good things about Fraiser island so i bet you'll have a good time. Don't forget to stay in the teepies in byron and get hippied up.
Back to good old work yesturday except its not all that good. We've now worked out why we are so overworked and stressed at work and thats cause we are down by 4 nurses and 8 hca's (Mmm that will be why we have no staff!!)idiots.
Sorted out hair and make last week and yep we've got mums out fit and she looks bootiful. Well must go as i've found the reciept for my wedding dress which says that i should of paid the balance off by 15th Jan so i'm gonna ring them and see if they have sold my dress on! Really hope not.
See you soon Marion and claude AKA emma and jon XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hi Rob and Steph
Great to hear from you today, sorry I've not posted anything on here in a while. Nana and Grandad were chuffed to speak to you. We had a house full of relatives today, all the old dears so they all had a good gossip and catch up. Little lilly was there too, shes 2 now, scary where all the time was gone and she was very chatty, so cute. We went in the garden so she could pick up stones to make a house ( I think we have another architect in the making, hehe!) She was very muddy when we finished and her pink dress wasn't quite as pink, but we had lots of fun.
We are hoping to get Glastonbury tickets tomorrow, so we will have to be up early, 9am on a sunday, rediculous, hehe.
Well take care you two. Enjoy Oz!
Lots of Love jo and nick xxxxxxxx

Hi everyone...
We are finally in Auz and it feels a little strange to be out of Asia. We cooked our first meal in 3 months!! Can you guss what it was??? Well it was bangers and mash with veggies!!! It was soooooo nice!!!
The hostel we are staying in is more like a holiday resort, so clean and tidy with a pool and club etc. We did nothing today, except re do our washing,,,, it now smells sooooooo good. We will head to the beach tomorrow and sort out our reef trip and our next place to visit.
Check in soon.

Hi Steph and Rob
You should be oz when you read this and no doubt the weather will be nice. Steph hope you are feeling better no doubt the clean fresh air of oz will do you both good and you can have a meal without rice!!! Emma and Jon came round yesterday and started work on emptying the attic. We managed a third of it and filled the skip so it looks like I will have to get another skip. Dont worry Steph we put all your things in one area for when you get home.
Nothing to report. Dad's working this morning and I am going to see Sarah on Friday. I think Emma is coming with me and we all hope to go to Cambridge on Saturday to look for an outfit for me for the wedding.
Dad's racing again this Sunday so lets hope the care goes better than last time.
Well will go now weather isn't too bad today a bit of sunshine.
Take care and have fun in oz miss you both
oooodles of love
Mum and Dad

Hello..
Mum and Em were sponsor you both 10p a Km...!
We are both sitting in the departures gate at Singapoor before we leave for Auz! Im (Steph) brickin it as you all know i HATE flying!!!!!!!!!!
I finally took myself to the docs today to check out why i feel a bit sick. The doc said that it is the doxy that is making me feel ill. It is causing me to have an acidic tummy. She has perscribed me a course of like antic biotics which should reduce the acid and she has also given me tablets for when i feel gassy and tablet for when i get the cramps. Its all good. Fell ok, apart from the acid gas!!!! She said no worries tho and to finish my doxy course.
Loft clear out is a GREAT idea but DONT get rid of my Salvanian Families or my Oh Penny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rob wants to play with them when we get back!!!!!!!!!

Oh i know the smell of those clean (!) clothes. One day i had to tell jon to change his top cause it smelt so bad i couldn't stand the smell. Its like a damp drying indoors smell! Not long to go b4 u can wash you own clothes in a machine with proper powder and conditioner. That was what jon and i did on our first day in auz and it was great. We even spent time ironing as well just cause we could!. Been to Jason and nicolas babies christening today in Raunds. There was also 2 other christenings so it was rather packed out. Saw lots of old faces and nothing ever changes. Jon is back to work tomoz and i've got another week off. Guess what..... mum and dad have got a skip to clear out the loft! I'm going over next week to make sure mum clears it all out and i'm taking no poop from her. Everything goes. Mum and i are doing the race for life on the 20th may. 5K's to be exact. I'm training hard at the gym. So far i've done 3k's in 20 mins, (thats on a random programme, big hills and all that). Clocks went forward last night so it got dark about 8pm. Weather is meant to be getting better this week as well. Laura only has about 2 weeks to go. She is due on the 1st April. Well going to sign off now as peter kay is on the telly and you know how much i love peter kay. Nearly as much as i love take that.
Enjoy australia. Are you going to see the barrier reef?? There is also the abo centre near by cairns as well and a cool little place where you can get the train to. Cant remember the name but i'll think about it.
