Oh my im such a terrible person! i've only just read the most recent blog! Thanks for the birthday wishes, hope all 4 of you are happy chappies :] can't wait to see all you guys again, whats the final date your coming back? i remember like the 19th May?

Just sat down to do a few hours revision, and ended up reading all your blogs and looking at the majority of your pics. I'll do anything to get out of work :P xxxx

Hi dad!

Give us a break! It takes sooo long to write the blogs, and to resize each pic then upload it, so no aptions i'm afraid, it just takes TOO long!!! Use common sense :) The grave is that of Patrick and Nora - my great great grandparents i think? Ask Greg :) I knew at the time! Lots of love xxx

Lovely photos but girls you need to keep up with the admin.......some captions would be great. Particularly for the photo of the cracked and broken gravestone. Just wanna know if its the resting place of one of my rellies from Kyneton and, if so, does the broken stone mean that he/she has resurrected (we are RC in my family) and should I expect him/her to turn up on our doorstep?
Now for your meetings with male natives, Amy. As you well know after 19 years of firsthand experience......if he's not an ocker (Aussie full of himself male), he's a modest bloke who's trying to develop an adolescent sense of humour ...... so don't expect too much of them. Keep on posting. love, me xxx

just fabulous pictures, thanks girls. I am going there when I retire! x

Glad you managed to squeeze a cheese factory into your foodie tour of Australia. Homemade pizza, pancakes, barbeque, ice cream cake.... I have to get something to eat before I read about the Great Ocean Road :)

Great Ocean Road? I WANT TO GO THERE! The pics are fab and you both look so relaxed. Love you xxxx

Finally found my way back to the blog site and revisited the photos. You two look so well and happy but I am really looking forward to seeing you come thru the arrivals thingy. Sun here today and Nick and I had sun in Yorkshire last weekend so here's hoping spring is just around the corner. Had a flood a home and am redecoraing as a consequence. You may even have a pleasant bathroom to lounge in by the time you get back Mary-Ann. xx keep blogging xxxxxxx

A (slightly belated) birthday video for Mary-ann. Watch!

Think this blog should be renamed 'Taste of Australia'!
Thanks for the update. Melbourne sounds a fantastic spot. Love you and miss you xxx

Adam!! Did you know we love you?!?!? That comment made my day a bit :) Missing you lots, try and enjoy the student life as much as we're enjoying the gapping life :D Loveeeeeee Amy (but probably Mary-Ann as well only she's watching Neighbours!) xxxxx

Hey! long time no sta-blog comment from me but glad to read you're still having an amazing time!

I love the sunset/beach photos : ) they’re artsy too. and the ones where you're both looking crazy happy and healthy and tanned and... therefore not at all english! (all of them)
Here it's fahreezing! hehe, I'm mega jealous miss you both lots and lots.
keep your chins up with job searching! but not too high because that would be dangerous. Lounging by the river drinking smoothies in the heat and listening to music and people watching sounds hideously perfect and I insist you start travelling everywhere by kangaroo for comic purposes. Up and down along the river etc. Racing.
(it was nice of felix to come out all that way to play saxo for you too)
Keep loving every minute- you’ve earned it.
Love from Adam ‘soppy-blogs’ Tristington x x xx
