Hi Charlotte, Just read your latest blog of NZ i must say it seems a lot better than Oz, certainly a lot more to see and do, especially for us oldies i can just see Mum doing a bungie jump,or jumping out of a plane at 12000 ft. Mum has just come in and read this followed by a quick slap !!! i don't think so. Mums just realised you are due home in 4 weeks and she hasn't finished redecorating and putting up the floral pink striped wallpaper. Nice. Love Dad XXXX

hey lady, i'm back from my travels (very adventurous ones i might add). had a great holiday but the journey back was crap cos of the wind (its windy here) had a very bumpy landing and then the train got stuck for ages cos a tree had fallen on the track. i touched a dolphin! was captive and didn't swim with it unlike some :-p but i was so happy. dreading work tomo, missing uni lots these days. not long until you're home now, can't wait to see you and give you a massive bear hug xxx

can't wait until you come home, you've been gone too long now! when is it you're off to thailand? nothing much is changing here, we're off to the algarve on saturday and then i start my new job when i get back. will have to claim my new desk before i leave so no one else gets it. office wars extreme style! love you loads xxx

Been keeping up with your blog, sound like your having a fantastic time! Can't wait to see the photo's of you as a Ninja, no doubt Adrian and Dan will have something to say about them! Nothing much happening here - its all work and no play! So your definately in the best place! Have fun and enjoy... looking forward to reading more of your blogs. We all miss you loads xxx

Just read your latest blog, i now have it in black and white you are getting in practice cleaning bedrooms for when you come home. You will not mind me reminding you of that every week !!!Look after yourself. Love Mum XXX

I met Paul Robinson too! Except I didn't really have a clue who he was at the time! We're you equally mortified at people seeing you drive through the city on the neighbours bus, I think I tried to hide a little bit!

I hope you've got some warm clothes for NZ, you can thenn throw them all away and dance around in vest tops once you get to Thailand :) I wanna be there too! xxx

You met Carl Kennedy, I am soooo jealous! I love him (sounds sarcastic, but I'm completely genuine).

Sounds like you're having so much fun - Loving your blogs.

Missing you lots hun, especially when I'm price checking, or when I need a work slap and of course your cups of tea. Xxxx

Hi Charlotte
Thought you'd run off with an aborigine. The accommodation sounds muck like home. lots of trees and fields, except we dont have a shop or hotel.
cant beleive that you are half way through. its going so quick this end.clocks change this saturday so home in the dark next week. YUK!
we're having a bonfire party again this year so will miss you at that. Take car, happy travelling xxx

i did NOT enjoy the long absence of not hearing from you, great to see all the photos though and find out what you've been up to. it's so amazing how much you are doing and seeing. it is getting cold in this country now :( Paul passed his exams so we're both very relieved. went to lorna's hen do on sat day/night, was fun. miss you so much xxx

Hi Charlotte, Great pics, looks like you are having a blast! Jason is in Sydney now; he got there a couple of days ago. He's still jet lagged at the moment. His blog is: www.travelpod.com/members/jason_oz. Love Dennis & Jola

Why did you take a photo of you with no clothes on in the first place you weirdo! And where is your facebook page? I'm so traumatised that I can't speak to you, come home please I miss you!! Grudgingly very glad you're having a lovely time. Mwah xx

hey hun, love reading ur messages, sounds like you are having the best time and doing loads.
all is ok here but my company have had a few dificulties lol. we put part of the business (O'Neil) into administration and we are getting rid of 89 stores and 39 jobs at head office, i am ok though and i am learnign loads dealing with all the admin. anyway gota pop to a late lunch so speak again soon xxx

can't believe you didnt realise you had put up a naughty picture. my flip flop broke when i went travelling too, very annoying! as usual there is very little gossip to tell you from home. paul and i will be hopefully booking a holiday this weekend, thinking either zante or turkey. will have to do some research.

love you and miss you xxxx

I love reading your updates, it's the first e-mail I read when I come into work ;0).
had half day today as Tilly has conjunctivitis and the vet came out this morning. Nothing terrible, but Tilly is feeling sorry for herself....big girl!!! We now have a stable so are ready for winter to set in....oh how I wish I was somewhere warm. It's so dark in the mornings.
Write to you again soon with more Tilly updates I'm sure. Look forward to your next e-mail.
