So we finally arrived in Beijing and to say it was a bit mad is an understatement!! the first thing i did was go and buy me and Dim a cheesburger from MCD's - proper Brits abroad!!

We are a fun loving couple embarking on a life changing trip in the search of enlightenment and self development. However, the reality is that we are both probably mad giving up our jobs in a recession to go jaunting around the world encountering hair raising coach journeys and unwelcoming doses of the trots! I am the more highly strung of the 2 who is always late where Damien (Dim) is more laid back but a stickler for timekeeping... good job that opposites attract - I can already feel a few heated debates coming on!

Big hello from cold and rainy Leeds! Photos are great, looks like you're having a great time. Good to see Dim isn't holding back on the food, he's got some reet portions in front of him. Nino said he'll come back looking rather rotund (not sure how he knows about these things, ha ha). Everything looks fantastic, apart from the turtle keyrings - What the F***! Mel said she had a skype chat with you, so we'll have a look at getting it set up on the laptop. Take care and enjoy all the weird and wonderful food and make sure you try to deep fried chicken feet, mmm.
