20 Sept 2005

Hey Everyone,


How are you all? We haven't heard much from all you back in NZ for awhile.
We had an awesome time with Rene and Janelle up at Airlie Beach, Whitsundays. Lots of sun and lying around which was great. It's definitely a great place for a holiday. Would love to go back sometime. The trip up in the Micra went well apart from one brief stop in Gladstone to repair the belt that drives the power steering and water pump, fortunately we were still in gladstone when it broke.
I don't think we would drive up there again unless we were in a rental car, as the micra seems to have a few things wrong with it now, the most noticeable being the rear shock absorbers are now rather bouncy. It might be a good excuse to lower the car though.

The new place we are living in has quietened down, although we dont like it any better. We are saving hard so that we can buy our own place hopelfully with in the next 6 months. So we are busy looking at the property market.

Liz has just been over for a holiday with us, which was good. We had a weekend up at Maroochydore and another weekend down at Alstonville with Graham and Colleen and the kids.

And thats about all thats been happening around here.

Love to hear from you.

Nick and Mel
