Dear Mon
I did get them, thank you very much. Put an extra note on the blog at the time to say so, but only small so easily missable. I'm scribbling away French-style. I've not heard from my brother in ages either! Must get in touch with the boy...

Heya - glad you are back - and sorry to take a while catching up with reading this - did you get the intermarche things? Actually - I was spurred to write by the message from crowbar - not heard from him for ages - will you send him my love - and excuse me for sidelining your blog in the process? love, Mon

I'm still deciphering your email, bro. All the "i"s got changed to "#3ae"s. Are you getting a new camera or relying on borrowing your friends' photos? Such a dilemma as you really want to take your own pictures but you know that if you lost a second camera you'd be devastated. I'm going to tackle my insurance claim tomorrow. Can't wait. But now you're the only one doing exciting things as I'm just playing with Jack and Minnie and waiting for my new job to start (which is a bit exciting, I supposed). Jack thinks it hilarious that you are on holiday "inside a big Turkey". We all went to see the Lion King at the theatre last night. I'm with Jack on this one - it was "more than amazing".

Dubliners
Dubliners isn't bad- think I had to read some of them for gcse. Infintely preferable to Finnegan's Wake and Proust. Saw Hannah (Davidson, née Craig!)'s wedding photos last night at netball - very exciting. Everyone looking forward to seeing you - safe flight and hasta luego xx

barclaycard issues etc
Yes, I've checked and the rainforest poster is indeed still in place in your bedroom. Now then, this barclaycard thing. A missive did pop through the letterbox with something about barclaycard on it but by now it could be a) in the pile of papers for transfer to the tip sometime in the next 6 months b) in the bin c) on the compost heap or d) still on the hall floor where it landed but now lost beneath squash kit, stuff brought back from holiday, boots, shoes, maps, Robert's clothes etc etc. Don't worry though - I will find it and deal with it.

Fantastic! Many, many thanks. To have them waiting for me when I get back to England: 23 Warwick Road, London, W5 3XH. Otherwise, place them in the incapable hands of Donald Ian, from whom I´ll extract them at some point in September. Other people, feel free to send presents too. Come on, Dad, what´s happening with the Barclaycard issues?

Woah - calm down, whoever you are. If you´d read my blog fully like a true devotee, you´d have seen I´ve addressed Sammie´s comment in another entry. The Galapagos photos are in a gallery of their own, you should have a link at the top of the page somewhere. Hope you like them :-)

The photos are amazing Liz, the sky is brilliant and the colours are so vivid, much better than the grey here in england. Feeling quite jealous again. Also, the story about the crazy german - funny. You see stories about other people can be amusing. Other people are weird (its not just me). xx Ps Death road looks well cool, there was no way you couldn't have done it.

bad corn pasty?
Probably you tried a cheap empanada...spend a bit more and you wil get the finest empanada ever, start to treat yourself better. I was in Quito 2 months ago and it was "fantastique". The church you don't remember the name is called "Sagrario". I think you need to spend more time in Quito to apreciate the beauty of this unique city, listed as world heritage.

I´ve just bought a book about Darwin, evolution and the islands which should get me nicely informed. I´ll keep my eyes peeled for those salt-water lizards and more generally for mating animals...

Sorry!
Oh no! How embarrassing. I spelt his entire name wrongly and put your name instead, Chris. Sorry that I don´t feel I can change it now. Please accept my sincere and public apologies. For the record, Chris is a normal, extremely charming, bloke and not at all like Thomas, who is really odd.

very jealous
Watched a documentary on the galapagos islands yesterday. Watch out for salt-water lizards, apparently, and comerants which can't fly and lots of creatures that only mate when the cold water currents come in. Bet they're well randy the rest of the time... xx
