Hi guys,
Nice to see comms problems don't restrict themselves to those of us working! Enjoy the last few days - at least you will be returning to Blighty at its finest, glorious sunshine and everything in early summer bloom. Tracy I expect you picked up on Rocket Ronnie sweeping all before him at the Crucible?
Take care

Phew! who'd have thought a year could go so quickly, yet here you are on the brink of homecoming.
So mant exotic memories you bring back with you, maybe you should think about giving travel talks for a living, you could turn it into a comedy duo, using some of the more bizarre experiences that you have lived through.
We certainly look f more…

Hello again - its getting hard to keep up with you, flitting between blogs, but its good to know that you're well.
China does sound like an 'interesting' place to visit, but some of the local habits sound less than endearing. Its not getting very good PR here at the moment with the progress of the torch.
I'll keep an eye on both bl more…

I agree - Noosa is soo nice. I spent 3 days there - lovely. Hope you had a fab trip to fraser island and swam in all the lakes - i firmly believe that Lake Wabby is the best and much prefer it to Lake McKensie. Did you manage to see any dingos? Did you like Hervey Bay? I think its bloody awful - its nickname is 'God's waiting room' (that is true if more…

Hi there - all looks great, especially the cans of VB. Had a monumental party just before Christmas and have only just finished getting rid of all the leftover booze - hic! Got the local curry house to do a stack of veggie samosas and pakora which went down well and Lis was pleased cos she got new hall flooring out of it as the carpet got well and more…

Hey guys - no comments yet! Thought I'd leave this so you didn't feel abandoned - everyone must be too busy enjoying the 80 degree heatwave to write to you! Just kidding - rain, frost and lots of wind. Yuck more…

All sounds fantastic - looks as narrow as a gorge walk I did in Turkey once in the days b.c. (before children)! Hot news - DW has 'resigned' from C&G. Everyone agog and speculating as to why. Just putting together my Christmas party playlist for Friday night soiree - none of the really cheesy stuff you understand. Hope you enjoy the festivities more…

Crikey Gary, good job you bought a skipping rope. It looks like it was touch and go as to whether you could squeeze through the glacier!

Glad to hear your having a great time.

It's lovely here.........if you can see in the dark :-(

Cheers

Whatever next, you never cease to amaze us with all the varied activities and rare sights. We really appreciate the continual 'reports home. It also looks like you will both be super human fit when we next get together.

Wow!! what excitement you are having. We are enjoying looking at the photos and can't wait to see the rest when you get back to little old England, which will no doubt seem rather tame after all your wonderful adventures.

Looks like you're having a ball in that camper van. Gary used to sneak down after the milkman and strighten the bottles on the step so I know what you mean by tidyness.

Supper just called so will get back on again later.
