Hi Guys
Thanks for the lovely pressie. Ash & I had a bit of a fight over the bag!! Great to read all the amazing things you have been up to.
Ash & I move into our new Whare this weekend. Really missing you now Dan, could use your muscles!! Ash has got here first black eye she ran into some bread crates at the marae in Taranaki. I will email you a picture, I've been getting some mean looks from people when we're out and about!
Miss you lots
Big Hugs
Jo & Ash xxxx
Hey Jodi, thought you might, I actually wanted to keep it myself! Thought you'd like it. Went back the next night to get me one and the guy wasn't there so had to settle for one not quite as good.
Want to hear all about your new place, e.g. where is it?? Poor Ash! Her Uncle will not be happy about that when I tell him! Send a picture for sure.
Give Ash and the olds a big hug for us.

From Aunty Robyn - Tuesday, 27th March 2007, 05:15 (GMT)
It's great to keep up with your news - enjoy Thailand. And I am not really a dreadful ogre; it is simply constructive criticism for a person who wants to get himself published. Who cares about the spelling and grammar of the rest of us?
Hi Aunty Robyn,
I agree, you are not scary at all. And I am very good at apostrophe placement so I am not at all worried! Good to hear from you.
From Nikki - Saturday, 28th April 2007, 02:12 (GMT)
The tube - fun???? Yuk, most horrible mode of transport ever!!! My two least favourite things, trains and tunnels!!!
Good to see you've put some more photos up. Looking hot!
Catch ya later,
Love you, Nikki
I know, you would not have enjoyed it but it really is fun!
Yeah a few more photos still to come so keep a look out.
Hope all is good, give the kids big kisses from us. Love you, me.

How's it going?? When are you going to put some words up for us?? Is it fun? Scary? Exciting? Yucky??
Can't wait to hear, hope you two are both doing well, love,
si
Hi Si,
We have been pretty busy seeing the sites of Melbourne but the first entry will be up any minute! Feels like we've been gone for ages and it's only been 3 days! Melbourne's pretty cool, it's all so big compared to Wellington so I guess so far I'm not sure what I'm feeling because I'm so busy just taking in all the sights. Will put something up for you now, keep in touch love Jose.
From Aunty Robyn - Tuesday, 13th March 2007, 04:15 (GMT)
Oh my goodness - we now have another Planet Ranger to visit each day when we come in from work. Kiss Danny's ears better for me, won't you. Enjoy your travels.
Hi Robyn, yes add us to your list of planet rangers to visit! I will give Danny's ears a big Aunty Robyn smooch for you, I'm sure that will fix them.
Hope all is well with you.
From mum - Tuesday, 13th March 2007, 04:19 (GMT)
Dear you two!
Oh Danny I can commiserate with the sore ears bit! MINE always play up too - well usually it's just one but they can be very painful, should feel better by tomorrow.
Does Gail have access to Internet or Jodie? Should I pop a copy of your emails into letter box for theM OR MAYBE YOU HAVE RUNG THEM.
oops ! Caps by mistake......
Rose mtg tonight so will have tea early
Catch you later
Love Mumma
Hi Mum,
Fi told me she promised you I would ring you, so will do that in the next couple of days.
Jodi has email/internet access but Gael and Doug won't, so maybe you could give them a call and see? Danny spoke to Doug a few days ago because he had rung.
Have just been for a rather big walk down to Circular Quay and seen the Opera House and the Bridge, I like Sydney! Probably going to the Blue Mountains tomorrow.
Have fun at Rose Meeting!
Love you.
From Geoff - Tuesday, 13th March 2007, 08:22 (GMT)
Struth mate - just been watching the travel programme and they featured Werribee park - never heard of it. Didn't see Danny on it? Sounds like you two have taken to travel just fine - fancy D not knowing the beer was free on fligths. Cooler and wet tonigth but good to have a change. All is OK here but work is sh... at the moment - great expectations with little resources - whats new? Take care and keep enjoying the experience.
Love Dad
Hi G. How funny is that that you just saw Werribee on TV. Danny thought it was a very funny name, and kept saying "where he be?" Ha ha, very funny.
Enjoying Sydney so far, just been out for a nice dinner on Darling Harbour waterfront, now sitting at home under the air con.
About time you retired I think big G!!
See ya later.
From mumma - Tuesday, 13th March 2007, 23:44 (GMT)
RAIN!!! AND THUNDER!!! Well, we've had it dry for so lomg havent we? but its persisting down with thunder and all. Bloody sight colder too.
Lovely to see you are real and over there in Seeedney. Say hi to Fi and hope D's ears are better, wonder if you got to Blue Mts
love to you both
R
Oh no, although thunder storms are so much fun aren't they? No gardening for you then aye? Yep we went to the Blue Mountains today, it was very impressive. Will put up a diary entry about it now. Fi says hi back and Chris wonders if you said hi to him also? Will call you Friday for your birthday old lady! Love you lots.
From joe - Thursday, 15th March 2007, 08:44 (GMT)
wildly impressive. Danny can get emu and crocodile to eat as well. We avoided the railway. I saw the vertical bit on the way up to it!! Darling harbour has a cheap pie and chips restaurant on the same side as the event centre. The pies are awful. The monorail stops at some interesting places. Hug
Oh Joe you're a wuss! I actuallly didn't expect the railway to be vertical! But I survived, so all good. Darling Harbour is a pretty happening place that's for sure, you could go out for dinner every night there's just so many restaurants.
Give my love to Juney.
From Geoff - Thursday, 15th March 2007, 10:22 (GMT)
Hi J & D - great travel descrition - I know what you mean about the Blue Mountains having the big space when you look out over the 3 Sisters canyon - did you climb down the steps to the 3 sisters? Had a few beers with Si and S at the BackBencher tonight then had a look at S's building. 7 meetings today - tg it's Friday tomorrow. Keep safe and lots of love. G
Hi G, yeah Blue Mountains was great. No we didn't actually go over to the 3 sisters but had a great view of it from everywhere else. Could really have spent a couple of days there.
Have fun at work, but I bet you won't!
See ya, love from me.
From Fi - Friday, 16th March 2007, 06:15 (GMT)
Hi Josie,
See you soon, leaving work now ;-)
Fi xx
Oh hi Fi. How about I see you at your place, you know the one? Just ring the bell and I'll let you in. Cheers.
From Arnie/Rosanne - Friday, 16th March 2007, 15:57 (GMT)
hey travellers! just a quick note to say hi! sounds like you are having a great time! had so much fun at your farewell. so did Rosanne, she says hi 2!
anyway, all the best. love always Arnie
Hey Roseanne, or is it Arnie today??!! Great to hear from you and glad you're tuning in to planet ranger to check up on us. Have just got home from a massive outdoor dance party with about 35000 people at it, Roseanne would have loved it!
Keep in touch. Danny says your mum goes travelling.
From Terets - Saturday, 17th March 2007, 14:17 (GMT)
HAPPY ST PATTY'S DAY GUYS!!! Sounds like you're having a great time in Oz and enjoying awesome weather. We've just had another snow blizzard over here so the streets are blocked with snow and the St Patty's parade is about to start up 5th Ave - really jealous of the 27 degree temps.
Keep up the pics!!!
Luv T
Hey T!
A snow blizzard sounds like great fun too, but I guess you've had a few of them now so they might not be so exciting. It's overcast today but still warm. And I guess Thailand is only going to be hotter! Will email you soon.
From mum - Saturday, 17th March 2007, 20:11 (GMT)
Thanks for B'day message and thanks for not disclosing "how many"!!!! Sounds like you're having great holiday and enjoying doing the sights and sounds of Seeedny.
I know Robin S would abs LOVE to get a phone call from U if u could manage it! Will give u details on your email, Love to you both Mum
ps Had a good couple of good birthday days, morn tea at F's with N & kids, J and a friend R & J and me -lovely the dinner on Friday night -Thai takeaways- was lovely but a little disorganised, U Joe remarked that everything turned to custard when Josie wasnt here to organise things!!!! ha ha
Hi mum,
Sounds like you had a lovely birthday, aren't you spoilt. Yeah I thought you might be missing my organisation skills and bosiness! It's pretty overcast here today but still warm of course. Talk to you soon.
