we made it

---

all the way round the world. Everything happened as it should have done, and we didn't lose anything or miss a plane. The one from Heathrow was huge, and surprisingly comfy. food good too. the only problem was with the sniffer beagle in Auckland who was very keen on my bag and thought it had contraband food in it. Once i'd convinced them i'd thrown it all away, the bag went through the scanner and found ----- the back machine, made of wood. not allowed, but ok as it was old wood. Our digs are comfy and robin has made us really welcome. Tonight we came round to George and beb for tea and a look round there estate. Its nice and sunny but a chilly SOUTH wind, everything is back to front.

There or their
Mummy! I am shocked! 'Their' estate, not 'there' estate. But you had a very long journey so you are forgiven. Lucky about the back machine, than could have been disasterous!!

Hi Carrie, pleased you arrived safely - how strange to have a chilli southerly wind! gorgeous autumn weather here - but not for long. Whats the food like? suppose they still eat gubs there in them far off countries?? luv I x
