Hi to you both. Great to hear from you again and thank you for a very entertaining journal we have loved listening to your news and looking at your photos. Enjoy your last 4 days in NYC and hope to see you next week. xxxxxxxxxxx

Thank you for posting these beautiful photos! I have been seriously considering a move to NZ and am 99% convinced that this is probably the best place to raise my children. Dunno if you are still there, but it sure looks like you two were having the time of your life. Thank you for sharing!! Best wishes, Brogan Aldrich

Feeling quite sad that your trip is coming to an end soon. I will miss your updates, but look forward to seeing you. You've really wet my whistle with your journals. They've made me want to revisit the places I've been ( especially the incredible Grand Canyon and Yosemite) and visit the many I haven't. Bet Caroline's changed her impression of USA a bit? Hope you enjoy Canada too. Rog needs to beat Paul's record of how many Mooses (meese?) can a person have their photo taken with, cardboard, stuffed or otherwise- believe me, there are many.Jill G x

Hi to you both. Just catching up on where you are at present to find you yet again with a glass of wine in your hands! Yosemite is certainly a fantastic place and your photos brought back happy memories of our visit. Thank you for the postcard from the Grand Canyon. I must admit it is the most amazing place I have ever been to and it sounds like you both agree. Enjoy every minute of your last few weeks and take care. Love the Wallers

Just a quick message Rog - Leeds lost in play offs. Happy days.
Martin Sykes2009-05-05 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
Apologies for the Grand Canyon advice Rog - still, better to have lowered expectations, eh? I went to Orient for the last game as it was Boothy's last ever game in a Town shirt (barring a desperate crisis bext year) and it was fantastic! A bit like the final game of the season at Brentford under Warnock (1st year) - Town fans were amazing and day enhanced by Orient fans giving AB a standing ovation as he was subbed late on, having ineviatbly scored. It was a pretty dire 1-1 draw but the football was secondary. Getting a good feeling about next season. Still haven't booked NYC hotel - I'll probably do it this week. Didn't think you'd like Vegas - but you'll love the drive through Death valley and out the other side to the Sierra Nevada.

Hi Caroline, Hi Roger, hope you both are fine and as you can see I found you in the world wide web - it was a great pleasure to meet you and Fiji was a unforgetable experience - take care further trips - Corina and Stefan
Bev & Peter2009-04-22 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
Hi Caroline & Roger Looks like you are still having a great time. We are still continuing to follow your fantastic travels, the photos say it all. The weather here has improved and I have even sat out this afternoon. Hope you had a great birthday Caroline, we will go out for tea when you get back to celebrate. Take care and happy travels. Love B & P

Bit of an update for you Rog. Town, unburdened by any thoughts of actually getting anywhere this season have started winning. A 3-2 win at Walsall (coming from 2-0 down) was the 5th win in 6 games. If we win all our games by about 8 0 and hope that those above us lose theirs by about 2 or 3 we could have got to the play offs but for the fact that 2 of them play each other making it mathemetaically impossible now! Now on to Fartown. By yesterday they were second in Super League having gone on a 6 match winning run and, for once, the fat lads were generating some interest from the usually apathetic Huddersfield public. I even thought about going down but opted to watch it on Sky at the Dusty Miller with a ginger fella. In an uncanny impression of Town whenever they get a decent crowd, Fartown roled over and got murdered by Leeds and no doubt they'll attract 2,000 to watch them lose to Salford City Reds or some other glamorous outfit next time out. Bye for now - see you in New York (I was somewhat taken aback that Caroline dosen't like tall buildings - is she going to spend all of her time in New Jersey then?)

Hi aunty Caroline & Roger, Big apologies as mum asked me to send you a message last week wishing you a very happy birthday..... oooops. Sorry. New Zealand looks fab and you both look very chilled. lol shelley mike & bea xxxx
Jill G2009-04-11 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
Caroline, you wuss! (only kidding) All these years and I never knew you had this problen with heights. I suppose that discounts the CN tower then. So sorry I forgot to send you a message on your birthday. Fully intended to and then , true to form, forgot. I hope you had an extra special one. xxxxxxxx
Pamela2009-04-06 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom

Rog. 2nd Wednesday meet is Shoulder of Mutton. You coming? If so , bring the kiwi. Let me have latex detail please. ( hope all well) H.
Martin Sykes2009-03-27 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
About time you updated - slacker! Just back from a typical Friday night in the Bull - Fartown have hammered Wigan to go 3rd in Super League. Town are still trying to turn draws in to wins but its all too late. We haven't booked NYC hotel yet as we think things will keep getting cheaper. Yankees tickets are a tad expensive - I'll wait until we get a hotel and a concierge see you in June Martin
Bev & Peter2009-03-27 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
Hi Caroline & Roger You both look extremely relaxed and happy. The photos of New Zealand are fantastic and you look especially at home on the horses, bet you both were saddle sore after all tha trekking. Caroline..... have a lovely birthday next week. Love Bev & Peter
Jill G2009-03-27 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
Hi Roger and Caroline, Well all that planning is certainly paying off. I can't believe you're packing so much in and those latest NZ photos are amazing. I never knew there were quite so many incredible geological features there. A bit worried though- you both look far too settled in there- I'm scared you might not fancy coming back. Thanks for the birthday card. I never expected one so it was especially nice to get it. We had a great week ski-ing in the 3 valleys- loads of snow and sunshine.Back to normal already though and looking forward to the summer.xxx

pamela2009-03-09 00:00:00 , huddersfield, United Kingdom
just catching up with your travels, it looks wonderful, you are certainly not missing anything here, cold, windy, hailstorms, need i say more!!! you need a map when looking at the pics so that your journey can be ploted, having a glass of wine whilst writing, French not Oz but you can't have everything, puts one in the holiday mood tho'. unfortunately working tomorrow so that brings me back down to earth. take care and send more pic's and "never smile at a crocodile" xxxx pam
Howard2009-03-06 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
Hi Rog , thanks for your mail. Glad all well. Town driving me nuts,had half time/full time bet for Colchester game and stood to win £140....then they equalised in last minute. This latex stuff is interesting. Must check out the monthly mag. H.
Mathew2009-03-01 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
Blimey, only just found this guestbook (how slow am I - just sent you another e-mail although now Ive found this I think I'll start leaving you messages here). Keep the pictures coming. Still having nightmares about that lycra one; personally I think I'd have taken my chances with the jellyfish - transluscent buggers, they cant be that hard surely?! Anyroad, you've already got an essay from me to read in that email, so take care and keep having a fantastic time. Mathew
Liz n Graham2009-02-27 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
Liz is really enjoying the photo's of Oz. She's been to Mount Gambier and a few of the other places. Port Douglas looks excellent. Have you thought of modelling for Lycra ? Town, and Black Bull getting worse !
Martin Sykes2009-02-25 00:00:00 , Telluride, United States
Now then Rog & Caroline. Just spent 3 days trying to learn to ski here in Telluride. I can do it, but had a bit of a rib knock so gave it a miss today - Violet struggling as bit and has a sore knee! Fantastic scenery here and expecting more in Jackson Hole/Yellowstone next week. Town appear to be crap again! Looking forward to June, which doesn't seem that far off now, does it?!!
Jill G2009-02-23 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
Hi, Rog and Caroline, Wow, this just gets better and better. How many more of these fantastic experiences can you have? The pictures are superb and are giving us the reason to start saving fast. Paul particularly enjoyed Kady's Joeys. Keep cool. Love Jill xxxx
Howard Sykes2009-02-19 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
Wotcha Rog , Hi Caroline.....hope you are both well. Photographs seem to suggest so!! (although I was slightly concerned about the kangeroo activities behind you Rog?) Keep enjoying.....see you both soon,possibly Bull at 5 Rog !! Howard.
Martin Sykes2009-02-15 00:00:00 , Huddersfield, United Kingdom
For the 3rd time in a row, Town beat Leeds and they are now, pretty much, our bitches! We were pretty good in the first half though Leeds had a couple of chances, but deserved the lead from Nathan Clarke's excellent header from a corner (me and Howard had a tenner on him at 20/1, so a pretty good day, all in all!). Leeds pressured for a lot of the second half but young Smithies (who is off to Spurs in the summer) was brilliant and our defending was pretty good (clearances weren't up to much though). Great day had by all. In work at the moment trying to get clear before flying out on Thursday - I might have my own journal!
