Well, it looks like we've really missed out on the news back home Greg, hee hee!! We are in Queenstown at the moment, its quite a big town with lots of adventure activities, unfortunately however we've done them all elsewhere!! We are going to head to Arrow Town this afternoon, then Franz Josef to walk the glaciers, then off to Christchurch to drop off our campervan and head off to Oz!! yay!! We've had such an awesome time in NZ, it's as 'sweet as'!! Hope you had a good time in Wales Mum Faulder! Also hope that Dad Vine had a good time in Espana and Jack in Mejico!! What travellers we all are!! x x x x

Hi there! With all your worldwide japery and island-hopping travelation, I thought you might appreciate being brought up to date with all the latest headlines from the home papers. Here they are... The Daily Mail: "Sandwiches Banned" - The government has offically outlawed the private and public prepartion, distribution and consumption of sandwiches, citing the "clear and proven" link between layering delicious fillings between soft layers of bread and recent rises in violent crime. The Times: "Conservative Leadership Shock" - Recent leaks regarding the bid for leadership of the Conservative party have revealed a massive upheaval of the party election process. The new leader will now no longer be elected by a vote amongst party members, but will instead be appointed on the basis of their perfomance in an "Eight Mile style 'rap battle'". And finally, bad news for Arsenal from the sports pages of the Daily Planet: - The FA have offically banned Thierry Henry for 6 matches for bringing the game into disrepute for being "too French" on the pitch during last month's game against Melchester Rovers. I hope that clears things up. Have fun, bye.

The football truly was a joke they need to have a word, lets hope the cricket boys do something better! Finished sking now great time, must go, write soon.

ENGLAND V IRELAND ------- JOKE I THINK YOU MUST HAVE A FEW CHOICE WORDS TO DISCRIBE THE OUTCOME TOM.
A FINE STATE OF AFFAIRS IN AMERICA SINCE YOU HAVE LEFT THANK GOODNESS YOU WERE NOT THERE ,BUT I FEEL SO SORRY FOR THOSE THAT ARE. N Z SOUNDS GREAT AND YOUR ADVENTURES ON THE SLOPES SOUND FANTASTIC...APART FROM THE PROBLEM WITH THE LIFT.......MUCH LOVE ,DAD

Hi guys! Geez, after NZ, Brisbane, Australia will seem positively boring! No extreme sports round here, not to my knowledge anyway! You have really given me the bug to go to NZ though, it all looks fantastic what you have been doing, I could have joined you guys on the slopes, although me and anna would have been tackling the bigger slopes though. Anyway, enjoy the rest of your time there and save some energy for OZ! See you soon. Helen

Hi everyone, we've had a fantastic couple of days on the slopes!! hardly fallen over at all, and have progressed to the bigger slope leaving the boys behind, hee hee!! Did have a bit of trouble getting off the chair lift though, those things are dangerous!! It's pretty mad driving up there in the camper, 7,000 feet!! Sorry about the lack of new photos on the site, I have 'misplaced' the lead (think I left it in Wellington), so we will have to find somewhere that burns cd's instead. We've got some good'uns though!! Mum, your trip sounds good, if not as extreme! Greg, your catch up with the guys sounds enlightening!! I hope that everyone is well, wish us luck for the next couple of days on the slopes, break a leg and all that.....maybe not!!! x x x x x

Hi you two, well what a fantastic trip, you seem to have packed rather alot into your time in NZ - it all looks and sounds wonderful. Well, Mike is back at school and we're back into the old routine. I'm off to Wales on Sat - riding, walking, shooting, fossil hunting etc (all sounds a bit boring compared with what you're doing). Anyway just glad you're nowhere near New Orleans at the moment. Continue enjoying yourselves - and keep sending the postcards. LOL MUM

you in new zealand,jack in mexico, me in spain and ,can be contacted at michaels email address [email protected]

Hey yo Anna and Tom, how's the voyaging? I bet it's like way narly. Had a wicked time in Wycombe. We had some good catch uppery but we really spent most of our time in church praying for sinners, donating old clothes to charity, discussing blends of tea and lamenting the state of the filth on our television screens. We really missed you two, so we prayed a bit extra on your behalf. Hope you continue to have a super good time on the world. Word...

Ok that's it!
Your last postcard has just convinced me to visit New Zealand. It looks fantastic.Only thing is Deb didn't seem to keen on us sailing there!
Always enjoy following all you exploits on the site.
Love and Regards
Bligh

ha ha ha ha ha!

I hope your not trying to call me unrespectable my gooner loving friend??? If so I am most hurt by your bitter comments. Ur just jealous cos you are not from liverpool!!!! I'll have you know I can be respectable when needs be! I do hope you have takin a pair of shears to that road kill on your head! I haven't had time to check your recent pics. Also u wish you had ginger hair! ha ha ha!life would be dull if we all had the same coloured hair would it not???? I merely stated the obvious that you have a habit of letting the fuzzy wig on your head get a tad too out of control! Do you concede me that 1?ha ha ha ha ha!good to see you two are enjoying yourselves out there. When you get back we will have to arrange a catch up drink. Its been a while since all the fellas caught up.
I shall leave my retorts for now. Speak to you some time soon. Drop us an email if you get a chance. [email protected]. Take it easy guys!
