Surfs Up Guys I am loving the passion wagon, you have defiantly had your ride pimped!!! Clare the look of concentration on your face in the surfing snap is so funny. Thought you might like to know that Vicky and Simon have set a wedding date for the 7th Sep. Have a great Christmas guys. Snog Snog xxx
Like....dude....gnarly wave 'Surf dudes with attitude,
Kinda Groovy,
Laid back moods.
Sky above sand below,
Good vibrations.'
10 points to the surfer dude who can identify which cheesy surf related show opened with these lyrics. I bet its Clare!

gnarly dudes and dudettes! Well, I've been doing my research and have been on a surfing slang website, so can now translate your boss blog. Now it's your turn...Have you seen any dorks or dweebs wearing doggers lately? You are both also known now as grommets, hodads or gremlins. You'll be hot-dogging in no time! Lots of love Kahuna worshippers x
Enjoy Big Jim Hi Guys, Sounds like you are having a load of fun. Excellent reading your journal. It is amazing that we've had less access to the internet here in WA than we've had in India or China! Anyway, it's been great having a catch up on your adventures. Sounds cool!!! See you guys soon. Love Charlotte xx
Mooball... Moovan One of those funky little campers comes covered in cow print too! They look fabulous!
You best have a lot of pics for me you guys or i'll be most upset!

Enjoying your blog Hi guys. Glad you are enjoying Oz. I've been a lurker for a few weeks. If you want to cut down on your accommodation costs, look for a book called Camps Australia Wide 3. It lists most of the free camping sites around Oz and a lot of the cheaper caravan parks. Some of them are crap - close to roads, too far out of the way - but many of them are absolutely wonderful. My wife and I have recently returned from a trip around Qld and found it really helpful. Have a great Christmas. We're on our way to the Woodford Folk Festival, just north of Brisbane.
Campervan Just had a look at the campervan web site, can't wait to see what yours looks like. You two must be having the most amazing fun. Glad to hear you are well stocked with food, as I am sure everyone who knows Dan, will understand he just has to be fed at regular intervals. Happy camping. Take care, all my love Mum. XX
Those blooming huntsmans! The only time i saw spiders the whole time in Oz was in Melbourne! And they were all big Huntsman monsters!!
The worst is when it starts raining as they all try and get inside the houses. Urgh!!! They just cling to ceilings and although the locals say they never drop off.... i wouldn't stand under them...
Just wanted to say how much we look forward to reading your blogs what an amazing time you are both having. We envy you all the fantastic experiences of different cultures and places you visit. You both look so happy what memories you will both have - look forward to your next blog - remember to take care of each other
ello ello ello Now then folkies! This all sounds absolutely fantastic. You see programmes on tv where they are actually diving around wrecks, but never can believe how fab it must be to take a peek - Now I can believe it and completely understand why it must be so amazing. Clare, I have to say that i think you've been very brave with all the spiders. I don't mind them back home, but even I would have been scared with all that lot around. For once I probably wouldn't have minded the gentlemen leaving the toilet seat up so that no spiders to creep in underneath! You really know how to scare Mum G as well don't you. Clare, when's the bit where you get to hold one? On another note, it sounds like it's a good job that there aren't any coppers around the island, or speed cameras for that matter. however, do you reckon buzz could get a job out there? Just imagine all the ticketing he could do if everyone had Ally as their tour guide and was late for the ferry! Pleased you're having such a fab time and look forward to further tales of scary creatures and hold-on-to-your-hat journeys. PS - Enjoy the hire vehicle. xxxxxx
Cheeky bear I am envious of you both because I would love to be in Aus again but thanks for keeping us informed. I was just going say the koala did appear to have wandering hands. Keep travelling this way.
Sound's like a return trip from Whitby on Bus!!. Glad your appetite is ok. Don't forget the female item off clothing that makes two good rice bowls when on a food mission.
Baby Kangaroo You lucky things, being able to get so close to the kangaroo. Yes Dan you are right I would love to help look after them, they are gorgeous.(Message from Dad) they make good kebabs. xx
Brisbane Hi Clare and Dan
when you receive this you will have arrived at Brisbane ready for even more adventure. We're all well and enjoying your updates
Love from Cels, Marie, Ashley and Adam
G'Day Shelia’s Guys, how the hell do you manage it!!!!! You’re supposed to be roughing it. The Ritz, Raffles and now the exec lounge? Clare did you manage to get one of those crocs made into a bag? And a pair of Cox’s for Dan ?
Dan remember if one does nab you they don't like been poked in the eye, and as a furthur precaution if you lather yourself in Nando's before you start antagonising them they will more than likely spit you out unscathed.
Crocs Dan dont take no s**t from them crocs mate! Chuck stones at them - they love it! Also I hear they love being pulled around by their tails! Lots of love - Steve
WOW!!! Hi guys, I've actually just been msn-ing you both! Finally caught up with your journal reading about the GBR. Anway, your adventures sound and look so cool! The GBR looks absolutely amazing. You took some amazing pictures and describe your time so well. Look forward to reading more! Take care of each other!! Lots of Love, Charlotte xxx
Cape Trib- are you still there? Guys
If you are still in Cape trib... go back to the pharmacy or the backpackers place called PJs Jungle village... asked for Andy Richards... and tell him sonia foley says hi (give him a snog if you must!!).
He is a crazy english guy I lived with at uni and he is now doing nightime rainforest walks and tree top gliding trips at cape trib.
How wicked is that place... don't forget to lick a green ant's bottom!!
sonia xx
A Guide called Andy Hello, One of sonia's uni mates is a guide in Cape Trib. He's called Andy and was at Uni in Bangor with her but he did zooology or something like that! So if you meet a tall english guide called Andy say hello for me!
Steven Spielberg eat your heart out Hey buddies, this sounds fantastic, shark and all! And I can't believe you are making the 6am starts. Is this going to become a regular occurrance when you're back in the UK?..........yeah right! Move over Daniel Craig, you've got some 007 competition.....ttfn x
