Hi both, You seem to be having a great time, to quote gerry, looking out on the grey English weather and the unrelenting rain is doing nothing whatsoever for any of us!!! So envy envy oozing from every pore!. had a few days with mum, she sends her love and looking forward to hearing your next installment. Love to you both from us all and continue having an 'awesome' time. J and P xx

Oh, and hi to Uncle Len and Auntie Lynne!

Hey! Just read my last message and realised how cack i am at spelling! How'd I ever manage to pass as a teacher?! Just had parents eve-bloody knackered now. Roll on the weekend. Meeting up with the uni lot at helens so i'll not be home in case you were planning on calling. Keep on loving it out there and try to rethink your opinions of Sydney-how could you not think it rocks?!! I'm still so shocked by that! Ciao for now. xx

Hello Bestist & only Brother Les & Sister-in-Law Pam, Only got your card today 22nd, I reckon the bloke in the tiger moth has been flying looking through his bins for my house.

Les...dont forget to take the lens cap off before you press da button. Have Fun you two Lynne & Len Hi-Yah Jane & Ann...Love from Uncle Len & Auntie Lynne...Hee Hee Hee!

Hi Pam & Les, I am exhausted from all this travelling - I feel like I'm there with you, what with the fantastic descriptions you have been giving of the places you've visited. Just to let you know Roper Close is still here and still as boring as when you left, apart from the party noises I hear from time to time coming from a house further down the Close - not sure what number......ha ha! Keep up the good work with your journals, they are great - must agree about the lack of photos though! Have fun, Andrea x

We`ve really enjoyed reading what the two of you have been up to. Sounds like you are having a wonderful time. Been off to lanzarote ourselves soaking up a bit of sun.can`t wait to see you with the photos when you`ve got back.

Wow! It all sounds so beautiful. Glad you are having such a great time! Keep the instalments coming. It is lovely to hear how it is all going! Love Anne and Allan x
