glad to hear you arrived safely i was a little worried that you hadnt posted a new blog a few days ago but i guess you were still flying or something. well have a great stay and keep us up to date. take care x x
Hello mr.cosmopolitan! Now that's what cosmopolitan really means! A civiliant of the world in the true sense: africa, australia and so on!
it seems you are having the time of your life Andrew, enjoy time with the Aussie family and hope to see you soon!
by the way, the beach house in Cape Point is actually ours, how on earth did you find it? you should have knocked on the door, we must have been sunbathing that day at the terrace next to the chilled swimming pool over a cool martini! -yeah we wish.....-
it's so miserably windy today, the sun has given up and we are both at work....need i say more?
enjoy your time away Andrew!
Lots of love from Naz and Jim!!
G'day Hope your body clock has adjusted. It all looks great. Shame I had to come back to grey skies in London. I can see what I'm missing. Say hi to Rolf and Dame Edna for me.
Singapore Temples I have visited that Hindu Temple in Singapore and thought it rather tacky, whereas the Buddist Temple round the corner was very Beautiful and peaceful. I was not a great lover of Singapore - it was too humid for my liking and if you did not like shopping there was not much else to do there. Love the travel blog. David
Some People! Dear Andrew,
It sounds like you're having a great adventure while the rest of us responsible adults perform our usual mundane duties - how nice for you!
I tried to follow your globetrotting on the link, but it made my computer crash, thank you very much> RBKC will not have that sort of thing going on on its IT equipment.
Everything is fine here. Kathleen is doing a great job. She threw a brilliant champagne reception last nigh, and every-one remarked how much better every-thing seems since she took over. I thought the new jacuzzi and wet bar in her office (funny, it seemed to me that it had been your office) were over the top, but then good is it to be the new CEO of WCT if you can't have a few perks?
Anyway, I'm sure you'll find a new job in no time upon your return.
Happy trails to you,
Tim
Beautiful pictures! Andrew,
The pictures were all looking very familiar up til now...we never got as far as Jo'berg! Looks like you're having a lovely time, glad to hear (and see!). Enjoying the blog, though making everyone back here very envious I'm sure...it certainly is making me so!
Take care,
Emma (James Barge's lady!)

Imagine taking it for walks !

I just love these creatures and have such admiration and respect for their dedication to their family. Please can you bring me one back. Just kidding. Enjoying your blogs immensely.

Happy New Year from NZ Hi! Looks like things are pretty lively in the RSA! Here we had a quiet new year by the lake, with the kids setting fireworks off once it was dark. I'm back at work (very quiet) and looking forward to some real summer holiday when you get here Andrew! Love to you both.
