Baldwin Street is 38.6% or 1:1.266 at its steepest. The beach in Fiji you've been sitting on all day today is considerably less than that.

Pratima Hi Vicky Just thought i would see where you were. Your photographs are amazing. Good to see that you are enjoying yourself and getting to such lovely places. Take Care!! Pratima

Sam Hi Little Vik, however are you coping with the cold weather!? At least it will get you ready for your return home! (Forecast tomorrow: rain and gales!!). Still we've just had a week in Spain so at least we've seen some sun. I'm assuming you're on your 'extended' trip now as I think you said you were due back in April? I'm really glad you're enjoying yourself so much, envious of all the sun and experiences but not of the 8 to a room hostels!!! Take care, you must be running out of outfits soon so I guess we'll see you then?! x

Kim Hey smelly. We all have great sympathy for you in the cold and the rain......honest we do!!!! I might just go and sit outside in the sunshine now!!!!! Enjoy the rest of your adventure. Ive also ordered some rain and snow for Fiji, just to make sure you are definitely tan free when you get home!!!! ;-) Take care Francis. xxxxxxxxxx

Jen O'Neill Hey Vicky, Well it's just not the same up the coast without you guys. Email me as soon as you have the byron pics up. Take care and keep in touch. Jen xxx

Jenn HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!...only a few months late, sorry I haven't been in touch. Sounds like it's not too bad out there - lots of nice looking men from across the globe too! Just got back from South America. The Galapagos islands were great and enjoyed the amazon (except the monster bugs!) Got to find a job now (but this lady of leisure thing is ok!) Have applied for an MA in social work in Durham. 2 years long and you don't get much money at the end (sounds a great plan to me!) Steve has spotted a good job up in the north east too, so hopefully we will have moved there by September. Be careful (?!) and see you soon. Jenn xxx

mum Hi vickie, Just got of the phone to you and didnt have time to say goodbye before you got cut off. Just spent the last hour looking at all of the photos. You seem to have adapted to the life style remarkably well, your be learning to surf next! Bank holiday May day weekend coming up so hopefully we will get down to the beach.Dad sends his love, he is building patios and glazing my greenhouse so no rest for him this weekend. Bye for now lots of love Mumxxxx

mandy hi vicky sounds like you are having a great time very jealous. hope you have a great easter, i will save your egg. i cant see you coming home and settling down. if you stay out there we can come and visit. keep enjoying yourself.

Frances Hi Vicki -- I enjoyed reading your latest news. We have been watching the weather over in Queensland, a bit wet for you. Our autumn has been nice sunny days around mid 20's - when you have had enough rain send it over this way. I wondered if you would get your trip up the Cape or whether the roads were washed away. Its different isn't it???? Everything bites you, poisons you or wants to eat you. Glad you survived the snakes, crocs, funnel webs, and box jelly fish!! Pleased to here that despite the rain you are having fun, at least its warm rain!

George and Rosie What a wonderful time you are having, Emma sent me your website.I am so pleased it is all happening for you., found any gorgeous men yet,!! Did you have a great birthday, we were thinking of you. I have just spent a few days with Emma Mark and Sophia. She is a lovely baby and so good, I saw her first smile today before I left and she is only 3 weeks old. I Have just got home so must unpack. Will write again soon. Lots love George and Rosie xxxxxxxxx Ps I am off to Canada in 10 days, I only hope it is not to cold on the praries!

sam Hi Little Vik, sorry not sent a message for a while....am checking your website though to see what you're up to. Glad to hear you're still having such a good time and that you've extended your trip a bit, can't say I blame you. No news here, Mike Baldwin dies in Corrie this week (thought you might be interested to hear that, not). We're off to the Lakes for Easter and then the IoW for bank holiday, see you're not the only globe trotter ha ha. Take care Sam x

Sara&Steve Hi ya Vickster! Nice to hear another update from you. Did you actually write it from the Whitsundays? You didn't mention them in your postcard but it says that's where you are. Sorry to hear you aren't having quite such nice weather (I feel so sorry for you - not!!). Hope you enjoyed Airlie Beach and round that area - nice to think i can actually picture where you are for once! All well here. Bump still growing and moving a lot! Am due 7 weeks today! Anyway keep enjoying your travels and take care of yourself. Love S & S xxxxxx

Kathryn Hey up chick!! At last I've got round to catching up on your travels, looks like your having a fab time, you lucky thing!! Kim's keeping me up to date with all your gossip, although havn't really seen her much since she got back, we need a night in with wine!! Hope all is still going well, have you done any dancing with snorkels yet? If not why not?!!! Things are still fine this end. Take care and enjoy, lots of love Kathryn x x x x
