Hello Travellers It's great to be able to talk to you & it sounds as if you're having a great time still, the concert sounds as if it was right up your street can't say it would be my taste in music (I know you're thinking what taste). Only 2 days to go if the bump arrives on time but I've never known a 'Tate' be on time. Don't worry you will be the 1st to know. Take care and enjoy yourselves. Missing you both so much With love always Mum

seriously you guys.......10 hours a day, 7 days a week, 3.50 and hour...... sounds like great fun!!!!!!

Hello Matthew and Louise I'm so glad you didn't tell me anything about the Skydive before you did it or it would have been more than you 2 who had a sleepless night, can't wait to see the DVD. Happy New Year - roll on September when you're home. Missing you both so much With love to you both Mum and Mark

Hello Matthew and Louise It was great to talk to you last night but I didn't see you on GMTV so I take it you didn't make it. After the last couple of days I'm going to make sure that I have a bag packed in case I have to dash up to Swindon quickly, You'll be the 1st to know after you Dad. Carry on having a wonderful time and keeping us all up to date on all your adventures. Missing you both very much, Have a wonderful Christmas. With lots of love always Mum

Hello travellers Hope everything is still great now your in New Zeland & your settling in OK .It will certainly be different having Christmas in the sunshine, far opposite to what we"ll be having if it continues like it is now cold&frosty with quite thick fog, it"s so bad even Heathrow has come to a standstill yesterday & today. Lucky we "re not one of the workers going off early mornings inthis weather It"s been realy great reading all your messages &the photo"s of course ,keep up the good work as we love to hear all about things Have awonderfull Christmas, we"ll be thinking of you both LOVE Nan & Grandad XXXXXXXXX

oh....and MATTHEW TATE, i hope you realise how many VERY unhappy women you have gone and upset. just got your e-mail and i cant believe you wouldnt call him big dave. that is a disgarce, and louey, how do you think your marraige will be if you start letting him get away with things like that. you need to put your foot down. especially when it comes to the sort of life changing decisions like what to call your campervan. im so dissappointed i cant even talk to you right now.............

GET A JOB.............. ha ha, its not so much now is it!!!!!! actually, i think if i had the choice of working in grotty old swindon (by the way, its peeing it down, and its cold, and i've just had to walk to the shop, and im now sat at work with wet feet) and working in New Zealand i would go for new zealand. Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
