Dolphins & Friends


Our next visit was to Monkey Mia to see the wild dolphins that turn up like clockwork every day.




This place is so surreal you have to pinch yourself to make sure your not dreaming. Firstly loads of dolphins come ashore each morning to get fed and you see them maybe a metre away so that in its self is awesome. Then throughout the day you are enjoying the sunshine and decide go for a dip to cool down. Next thing you know a few wild flippers decide to join you and have a swim. It’s completely unreal.




I think he may be looking at me?



Here our neighbours, funny bunch they are!

When we left the dolphins we then met up with some other beautiful people – The Graham Family!!



It was excellent meeting up with you guys in Oz; I still can’t believe it Lin. You and me together in Australia!! We had a fab couple of days it was so cool seeing you and meeting your friends. A traditional Oz BBQ, we could so get used to that. Thanks for the great company, missing you guys already. We will see you in 9 months time xxxx

Good day. you saw dolphins i saw a killer whale, Although my siteing was on channel 1 and he was called free willy. Cant believe you are on the other side of the world and you manage to have a beer with Stuart Pearce, gets his autograph. Went cloths shopping on the weekend, i bought a size 22 blouse from asda for £2.50 and a size 16 micro mini skirt from matalans for 4 quid. You should of seen the girls face when i took a selection of skirts to the changing rooms to try them on. I even have the stockings. Im out for a 40th on weekend if your wondering why im dressing up as a women, although it was quite easy being a women. Anyway its nearly 8am so i better start work. Love Leeroy and Ange. x x x

Hi guys, was lovely speaking to you the other day, Mr Dyson and Mrs King. Cant believe I couldn't get the camera to work. That beach is amazing and you both look fab. Can't believe how much longer you still have there. Enjoy every minute cause nothing has changed back here. Was good to see you and the Grahams, that must have been good for you to see faces you knew. I'll try and get the camera working for this weekend and we can try again. Love to you both.

Bonjour mon frere et mon sis in law!
Life is hectic as usual - u know me , never do anything by halves! Since you have gone, i have got engaged, bought a business and now a house....all thats left is to have triplets just to set my blood pressure even higher than it already is! I'm only joking about the baby thing - no sperm is getting anyway near my egglets for atleast 3 years - -you'll be first!! Bought a house just for you so that you had somewhere to live when u got back!! Its in Hartley/Peverell area and needs shit loads of work doing to it...was an absolute bargain. No nearer to a wedding date as we have just had far too much on but will prob still be in 2010. You both look far too tanned and healthy - -its gonna take me anwhole load of sunbed seshes to catch up with you two gypoes!!
Lemon - we have bank holiday easter sunday coming up and ur ass will be sorely missed in Lavish
