Sydney Hi there, Sydney looks wonderful and is definately somewhere I will be adding to my list for when David and I get a chance to travel. Thank you Linda for the lovely postcard of the Kangaroo you sent to William, he loved it and it's now stuck up on his wall. You look like you are having far too much fun - it's not fair. The weather here has been miserable for the last week so I'm very envious of all of the sunshine you seem to be enjoying and your tans. Take care. Nicki (Nichola) xx
hello Hi Linda and Ken,
Thank you for the phonecall. It sounds like such a lovely place to go to. Can't wait to see the photos. We are all well, girls are back to school tomorrow, weather still good 29c today.
We have got G her own sudoko book now!!!

Sydney Glad you liked Sydney. Duncan makes a point of going to the loo at the top of towers ( EIfel Tower, Canberra, Sydney). Anna agrees with you about Bondi beach.
Duncan likes it though and thinks it looks like St Ives in Cornwall.
Hope the Queensland devastation at Cairns caused by the typhoon is not too bad.
Best wishes, Anna and Duncan.
sharing your travels at health centre HI enjoying all your journal entries! Linda I have copied 2 of your great pics for staff notice board (so that they are all as jealous as me!),hope that's okay?!
LOVE KAREN xx
Lovely pictures of Sydney, brought back great memories of our visit. Unfortunately our next stop was Bicester. Carry on enjoying the adventure November isn't far away.
Happy St Patricks Day! Hope you havea great St Patricks day. You both look as though you are having a great time. Linda we went and to Sandhurst last night for our first formal mess dinner, it was very nice and Mathew looked great ( ok so I'm a bit biased....) seriously though Linda I think you would have been as emotional as me to see him, need I say more? Anyway keep on enjoying yourselves and I am enjoying following you around. love Ruth xxx
ps sorry about the Rugby folks...... ok so I don't really mean that!!!!
It great It's great to see what you're up to in Oz, Tracey and her family look really well. Had lunch with Irene and Angie S. today - so caught up on all their news. The weather contiues to be glorious here and England are doing particularly well in the Five Nations so things are looking good!! look forward to your nexr update. Love Mandy
Message from Holland Dear Ken and Linda
Thank you very much for your e-mails. Is is nice to read about your wonderful trip. We hope that one day we can do the same.
We are back in Holland for more than a month now, but we still miss Thailand, specially the weather. It is very cold here and last weekend we had snow again.
We hope you will have a great time in Sydney too.
Love Ed and Carla
Envious Englishman !!! Hi Ken and Linda from the pictures and your journal, it looks and sounds like your having a ball !! and Best of British luck to you both.
I don`t know if you have been in touch with many people from the sixs or not,But I can tell you one thing that you would expect, that is the weather is still S--T. not many of the old crowd can be bothered to go out because its too cold and guess what ? The country is having a drout and there talking obout hosepipe bans already.
How long have you got left ??? out there I mean !
Well shipmates. Got to go to bed in a minute, you that work thing tomorrow.
Now I`ve got your e-mail address I`ll be in touch .
Take care all the best from the Ponte`s
Melbourne Good to hear you are continuing to have a good time. We were in Melbourne 10yrs ago your pictures bring back memorises. No doubt you will have a great time in Sydney too!
How's it goin'? Hi there you two, what a fantastic country eh? Great to see you're having a good time, wee too are having the time of our life. Diary entries have been brief coz we're finding it harder to get around to it but all is good. Left Sydney last thursday and went up the Blue Mts for a night and then on up to Byron where we've been for the last 3 days. weather's great, surf's great for learning, atleast as good as i remember it here, you'll love it too, very relaxed but also lots to see and do. Gotta go for now, speak soon. C and RA.
looking good Pictures look great, you're both looking well. Crisp sunny morning here but not sunny enough for shorts, brass monkey weather!!! Happy St Patricks Day for the 17th !!!
happy St. David`s day Great pictures! Is that Sean Connery on that beach in Adelaide?? Well we`ve eaten all the `cawl'scoffed all the `pic ar planc`and are battering down the shutters to another night of celebrity something or other whilst freezing our cojones off,there`s definately something wrong with this picture.Love y`allxxx

I did take in some live bands at a small festival in Seaton, Devon at weekend but its not quite the same in the winter and the pouring rain. Keep having the time of your lives.
