Almost done. So did you do the DaVinci code thing and start pulling stuff off the walls at the Louvre? I hear they love it when tourists do that. Don't forget to ask every French person you see where they keep the Holy Grail. They love that too.
Don't forget, you can't take any fluids on the plane with you. No drinks, no perfumes, no deoderant. Wow, a plane full of sweaty torists couped up together for 24 hours with no deoderant. You're going to have soooo much fun on the way back.
Here's a nice friendly joke that you can play on customs. When they ask you too place your shoes in the x-ray machine make sure you take them off then place them on the conveyor belt very carefully. As they enter the machine put your hands over your ears and fall to the ground in a fetal position.
You'll soon find all the customs stuff laughing hilariously at your spontaneous joke.
Trust me on this.

Did someone say scotch? Wow, that's amazing, a hotel built 600 years before Oz was discovered. Still, for the price your paying you would think they could find something a little more modern.
We went to the Gym for our first weight session tonight. Leigh is celebrating by lying on the loungeroom floor and moaning about her back or something, it's hard to tell over the sound of my heart trying to burst it's way out of my chest.
God we're fit.
What we wouldn't give for something as pleasant as a cold. Leigh must be feeling better, she keeps correcting my spelling as I write this. My very own personal spellcheck.
That's all from us, must go lapse into a coma.
Leigh moans her love.
Dale and Leigh.
AAAAHHHHH Single malts First it was Guiness and now single malts ! the holiday just gets better every day ! Have one for me....... make it a Glenmorangie. Cheers Brian
At last Glad you are both well. We have been having trouble getting on line cheaply but now know all about it ??? till next time. You have mentioned some beautiful places that we remember - lovely country. Hope Laurie has been behaving properly and not singing too loudly in the Irish Pubs. Love from us both xx
It's too early and too cold to think of a title. Got your Cornwall Postcard yesterday, thanks heaps. I'm wondering though, with all this wizzing around Great Britan whatever happened to "No Fast"?
Everything is good here however Leigh is in danger of being named the "Bird Woman of Nambour". I on the other hand am cunningly training all her feathered freinds to be my own personal slaves. The march to World Domination rolls on. Now excuse me, I'm late for my medication.
Hello from oz Hi,
Hope all is well. Good to hear from you and glad you are having a ball. Isn't it great that you can email from the other side of the world. Happy Birthday to Bunny for the 25th, hope you had 'a day to remember'. Off to Fiji in two days (4th). Buying my snorkelling gear tomorrow I hope. Love you all, keep safe and God bless. xoxoxo
World traveller As soon as you decide to have a life my golf goes to pieces. Get back here quick. Just joking?
Sounds like your having a great time and you both deserve it plus more.
Take care. Ken
Proud of you mum Can't believe what an internet savvy, independent woman of the world you are right now, so great to hear so regularly and really enjoying the updates. Not much to report this end, all's well. You are such an inspiration.
Love to all,

Jealous Sounds like you're all having a blast over there. Wish Laurie a Happy Birthday from us (somewhat belatedly, I blame the confusing time zone myself. I think it's next teusday already.) Keep up the good work.
History Can imagine how you are enjoying it all. We always love the old buildings and allys. We always say we only go to Europe to walk down the allyways and see the old buildings..
Have fun, Luv Jan and Doug.
Hi from Noosa Hi to you both - so good to hear you are having a great time. This is my first experience at a blog site so thanks for the experience. I'm off to Toowoomba at the end of the week and then a weekend with Terry in Warwick to celebrate our anniversary.
My husband and I live in Noosa on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland Australia. Having toured and lived in Australia extensively, we have now decided upon a trip to England Ireland Scotland and Wales and then on to Paris for 5 days. Having been before I'm looking forward to returning. My husband Laurie has never been, so very exciting for him and also for our eldest daughter Deborah who is accompanying us. ... full info
