After a worrying few days with regard to the weather, Heathrow airport congestion, cancelled flights, etc. we are off to Perth via Singapore this evening.



I would like to thank everyone for their very helpful advice and good wishes over the last week or two.



Wishing you all a Very Merry Christmas and a Very Happy and Healthy New Year.



Thanks you once again.



Jean and Paul

A quick update. We arrived safely and are having a lovely, if not very warm time in Perth. Average temp is 38 C, but the sun is very intense. Hope you all had a good new year & we hope to check in a few times before we return to see what you are all up to.

Best wishes J & P

I wouldn't classify 38C as "not very warm". More like bloody hot!
