Yay Tony, way to go!!

Hey Tony,

Fantastic to see you up and running on the Blog. Trish brought over a bunch of DVDs of our travels in 2000, and we've had a fantastic time going over them all and reminiscing about all the amazing places we saw and things we did.

Mum has loved watching them too, and was especially interested in our toasts to her in Paris. When I get a minute I'll have a go at putting some snippets on the Blog.

Keep writing, and feel free to add some destinations or websites of places you want to go.

Test entry

I don't know what the hell's going on, but I think that I'm typing an entry onto the blog.
Please confirm that I have cracked the "open Sesame" to the inner circle!
I can view some correspondence, but am not sure how to navigate.
(What a surprise!).
Love, Fatty

What a wonderful day Abby & I had in Nelson yesterday. It was so good to see everyone again, and for Abby to have some special time with Mum, before she heads into the wide blue yonder with Jason. We took some awesome pics and will attach one here. It was a great opportunity to meet Billie-Jean too; what a stunning wee girl she is. And of course to catch up with Jimmy again too. We can't wait for him and Ben to come over and stay at the end of the month.

Anna, thank goodness you didn't come into the airport and wait with us; our plane was delayed for what seemed like hours! When we couldn't see it on the departures TV, and went and asked what the story was and we were told it was delayed (the incoming aircraft) indefinitely due to bad weather across the country! About half an hr later we heard repeated boarding calls for the flight scheduled prior to ours, so I said to Abby to find out if there were any spare seats. Voila!! Two with our names on them - well sort of! So we grabbed the boarding passess and were out of there! However we ended up sitting on the tarmack for another 15mins while the pilots waited for clearance to take off, but eventually lifted off about quarter to eight! Fortunately the weather wasn't too bad back in the big smoke and we didn't get wet walking back to the car, which we'd parked miles away in a residentail area. So all in all an eventful day! I think Rex was quite pleased to see us when we walked through the door!

I've been thinking of you today Anna and hoped the PA meeting went well. I'm sure it went fantastically. Hope Phil is feeling better.

Better go and organise Abby's roast lamb birthday dinner! Thanks again for everything yesterday - we had an awesome day!

hugs & kisses,

Trish
