Two's company... three's a Birthing Group!

The house saw its first guests last night. We bravely decided to try a new recipe (damn you Oliver!!!!!) and cooked for nine hungry mouths.... well six really as three are yet to truly arrive! We've missed people at home terribly and getting out and meeting people is hard while you both work from home... so it's been tough!

We joined birthing classes at the local Hospital and that has probably been the best thing we've done since we've been here. In true Australian style Matt & Kate and Brett and Kelly were friendly and welcoming. We're in the same boat as far as expecting babies so its been good to find out and share things together! Kelly should be first (far left!) Kate next (right!) followed by baby Ivey about four weeks later!

The support persons (not pictured) have more than being expectant fathers in common as we have also established that we have the same haircut!!!

Good to see that you two normans have got some freinds at last. Hope you are both keeping well - beth is certainly growing well.

H and T are both doing well and recovered from a virus a few weeks ago. Lou and I had a few sleepless nights and are still trying to recover.

Our internet connection has gone down and Tiscali seem to be doing their best to avoid the problem so we will be changing provider as soon as possible. If you need to contact us you can use my work e-mail - lloyd@sands-consultants.co.uk.

Hope to be in contact again soon. Take care and lots of love (to beth - I'm not gay), Ll, L, H & T.
