This Wednesday my brother, Nick, is going to Australia with his girlfriend, Roz, and her mum, another Chris. They will be back by Christmas, but not before Irina and I return to Swansea this mid-November (more on that later).
As I was going through the almost year-old photos on my phone (I really need to sort and post them more often than that), I found this one of Nick and Roz, just after Christmas last year at Mum’s.

I hope their trip over goes smoothly, that they have a great time there, and will come back with lots of stories and photos to show us all 🙂

Hey, whereabouts are Nick and Roz going in Australia? I might bump into them if I’m lucky! I was just thinking today about the fact that I never bump into anyone I know (not including the few people I have met over here of course) because obviously there isn’t anyone here. Well, I guess there could be but the chances aren’t great lets be honest. It made me feel quite alone. Anyhow, they will have left by now but when you speak to Nick say a big hi from me and if he’s going to be anywhere near Sydney, especially the Northern Beaches, then it would be cool to meet up 🙂

Not sure exactly which places, but Sydney is one. I hope you don’t mind, but I passed on your mobile # to him, in case he needs/wants to speak to someone with some local knowledge. He isn’t taking his own mobile, but Roz is, so I’ve skyped you her number – so you know it isn’t a crank call, should they make contact 🙂

Glad you gave Nick my mobile no, thank you. He rang on Thursday night and we are planning to meet up around the 8/9th of December when they are back in Sydney.
They’ve been in our area for the last few days apparently and must have passed within less than a km from our house on the way to Palm Beach and the Summer Bay Surf Club! It sounds like they’ve got a hectic month ahead of them with all the places they are planning on seeing, sounds great fun though. It will be great to catch up and hear about it all before they go home. Hopefully they will be able to give us some travel tips for when we eventually get around to going on another trip.
Anyway, I can’t wait to see them, it will be so nice to see friendly faces from the UK, I haven’t seen anyone I know since last November when my aunty and uncle made a flying visit on their way to see my cousin in Tasmania 🙂

Hello, sorry not replied to your e-mail yet, it has been a bit hectic here, as you can probably imagine 🙂
Really happy to hear you & Nick + co. will all be meeting up soon. Sad to hear it has been so long since you saw familiar pasty faces – hoping we’ll meet up once more soon.
