is there no end to your talents? So what if she screams at bugs, runs from bees and cowers from spiders - the princess can casually toss herself out of a plane with nought but a bag strapped to her back and then throw herself down a hill with nought but a fat lad for a cushion! Dear Carl the flapping is only to make you feel more manly - insde she is pure steel! I can't imagine why you didn't wear your entire wadrobe and throw in a wasking tab, cheap at half the price. Glad you are taking this cultural tour so serioulsy and absorbing all that different cultures have to offer. Bye for now.
remember - no life-changing decisions!! the pictures are amazing!! I have to stop myslef logging on every day as you are making me want to sell up and move! everything ok on this end
Look forward to your tour finally moving off the route we took as it is just too painful seeing all those lovely places again. Funny enough we only got as far as Christchurch and missed out on the camper van. Have fun with it.
looks totally gorge! not sure about the cusine in sydney though, enough to make me want to go back to being a veggie! happy campervaning. love you both xxx
Is the lardy playing crocodiles? I am not sure you two are being honest with us all, I think that huge lump of lard in the sea is Carlos playing at 'crocodiles'!! Great to see the pictures of the Forbes clan it looked and sounded like you had a great time and I know they are always great hosts. NZ looks and sounds great make sure you remind them all who are World Champions.
I still have those helpful camping hints so Carlos I believe you are in for a few 'Walker common sense issues'. How big is the bed in the van is the much leg room? I have to say the pair have you have really wetted our appitite with regards a trip to NZ, have fun........
PS. Carlos be nice to me asI have your reference in front of me!
wow, what amazing place. the scenery is soo stunning it doesnt look real. exactly why do we live in the uk???? looks like you are having a blast. keep enjoying. xxxx
ps planning on meeting you at flower show then coming for weekend. andrew too. how does that sound?
Woooowww! What more can we say. I fear that we have lost you two to the southern hemisphere. I think that the fortune teller should have kept her moth shut instead of putting ideas in your head. Carry on camping. xx
A camping we wil go... How is the cmpervan working out - are you going to come back as new age hippies (with twins!!!!!***). Birthday went well. As usual I woke up the next day without a hangover. This time it did not mean much as I WAS SOBER!! Phil on the other hand was a mess (on the night and the next day).
The holiday continues to look fantastic and gald to hear that Carl was nice to you (for a change) on your anniversary - you never know it may become a habit. Keep up with the photo's and tour news. Bump expanding at an amazing pace. Stood on the scales ths morning and almost cried. I could give Carl a run for his money at the moment - nuf said. Baby now kicking - FREAKY feeling. Love us xx
Overload PS. The recycle truck broke down trying to hoist a wheelie bin full of empties onto its back. Wasn't as much fun running it back up the hill naked but it gave the neighbours a laugh, thanks for the inspiration/reminder of life B.C. in the 'memory factory' !
Big Bird Convention? I seem to remember a convention in honour of missing friends.....more specifically Big Bird (as I understand he is more widely known). The boys played a truly outstanding game Saturday. The line-out was awesome !!!. Rgds 4bz.
Fabulous Hope you had a lovely aniversary. Missing planes is just part of holidaying - dont worry. Relax and enjoy. It looks fabulous place - kids look great and you seem to enjoy kids! Twins - no bother!
glad somethings stay the same. sounds like just another sunday in twyford. minus the pool, the tennis court, the coast, the veranda, the lazing around!! but all the good laughs.
cant wait to see the photos
still wishing we were on tour. missing you
happy nz xxxx
Dja vous Its like going back six months looking at all the places you have been really strange. enjoyed the story about getting lost more of those please. Say hello to the Forbes faimily from me and get Ian to work on that BBQ
hello you two, cant believe you missed your flight, thought you had it all organised!!, never mind it does'nt sound as if it was to much of an ordeal, apart from to your pocket!. Had to laugh at your tale of Elise and the creepy crawlies, i can just imagine her. Dont want you to go but i can imagine why you would want to live in such a fantastic sounding place, keep up your Blog, love you both Mum XXXXX
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY Happy Anniversary! What a way to celebrate! Photo of you two looked very apt for your anniversary. Beaches look fabulous - as do you. Sunny but cold here, cut the grass, weeded garden, planted pots,wahed cars, and did washing and ironing. Oh well life goes on. Keep enjoying yourselves as long as you can. Hope Harry keeps up with you.
Auntie Barrrrberrrrraa Just got back from our fantastic 3 week tour of sunny Florida, its been brill reading and seeing your adventures. I think that carl will need to join slimming world with skunk when you get back as they actually look like twins now both being very large and lardy!!!
Enjoy the rest of the trip. luv ya both xxxxxxx
hello you two!! hapsey anniversary for the 28th. hope you're not expecting the princess to stay in a caravan on her very important day caaaarrrreeeelllll! loving the pictures, the girls insist on looking for uncle carl and auntie elise at least twice a day. we are still working on the shark images though! safe driving, lots of love jo. millie and gm.
packing is such fun!! glad you are the other side of the world, cant see us moving our stuff in!! Just tidying up after Howitts visit hope you like what he's done, it's different!!!!!! Carry on having a wonderful time, Happy Anniversary for friday, stay safe XXXXXXXXXX
The cars the star Davey dawoo eat your heart out....... What with the dodgy hotel rooms and the dodgy wheels do you think that carl is trying to do this tour on a wee bit of a budget? Sort that out Elise and make sure that it is champagne and bubbles all the way (or at least on Friday night).
Did the bush fire remind you of the burning bin in the back garden? Take care and enjoy yourselves. love usXX
A couple of things to note.. As I sit here after another hard day at the dream factory...there are a few things to note and be aware of. I note that Lardy is trying to body surf...well the law of physics sugest that there is no way on earth such a big tub of lard will ever float and the poor little fishes will get the fright of there poor little lives as 20st of Nottingham's finest lands on their poor swede.. The second thing is, it is nice to see that some things never change even when you are half way around the world. Princess is having a well earned slurp while relaxing in a bubble bath and 'beef cake' is driving and probably has up the whole of the East coast of our dear convict cousins. Well must go things to move, clean, paint, fix and put up oh yes being back home is fun.........
PS. Liverpool will play West Ham and Muster will play Biarriz
PPS. They were lucky........
PPPS The scales at the gym seem to be faulty
survived first day back to work, safer than your trip through the bush fire but nowhere near as exciting i imagine. just found out today that i could have been on full pay indefinitely until i chose to return to work. royally messed that one up. could have been out to help drive the camper van!! forbes has been calling in search of your whereabouts.
think he needs some beer friends after his family visitors!!. could this be the nightlife you are searching for?
til next time love xx
Costa Del Bramcote! Ok Ok - you have convinced us - you ARE having a good time then!?!?
It all looks fantastic and its great to be able to follow your goings ons!!
All fine in sunny Bramcote - only burgular we have seen at yours mows your lawn - how the hell do you manage that!? Keep up the good play- love your nutty neighboursxx PS Haven't seen the purple wig yet!
