12th October 2009 James	Scotland In Miniature indeed! - From: Arran Jumpers Excellent summary! My wife and I just visited Arran a month ago, and we seriously considered packing up, leaving the states and moving. We REALLY didn't want to leave. The stones at Machrie Moor are quite a sight. They have an almost mystic charm to them. The parking is easy to miss. I recommend getting a detailed ordinance map of the island just so you don't miss anything! Also, King's Cave is a great small hike, and Glenashdale Falls in Whiting Bay is a spectacular 2-tier waterfall. There are numerous golf courses along the island's coast with great views. We saw the seal statue too! Fortunately, there were 3 live seals about a mile further down the road.
Al, Shaz & Beth 14th September 2009 Eggs on Legs	Ohrwurm. - From: As I was going to St Ives, I met a man with 40 wives. Gary - you should have your own internet search company. How you come up with this stuff? Brill. Shaz. xxx
14th September 2009 Taryn Springhall	- From: As I was going to St Ives, I met a man with 40 wives. Hi there. Your blog is so great. Really enjoyed reading it. I'm a travel writer and always love to hear what everyone else has to say about a place. What sort of guides are you using? If you don't mind me asking. Happy travels! t
14th September 2009 Gary	- From: As I was going to St Ives, I met a man with 40 wives. "Since we went to Thomas Tank Engine World at Drayton Manor I have had the theme tune in my head. It's driving me bananas." Aye: http://andrewhammel.typepad.com/german_joys/2005/04/german_word_of__1.html "where the dewdrops cry, and the cats meow...."
13th September 2009 dragonlady	Stonehenge graffiti - From: As I was going to St Ives, I met a man with 40 wives. Hi Al, Shaz & Beth, Stonehenge is amazing. I loved it the first time I saw it, a great many years ago. In those days we were allowed to walk around and under the stones. You really get an idea how big they are when you are under them. We were also shown some Roman graffiti - a soldier had carved his name into the stone and dated it. I can't remember the name or date (it may be on the site) but I thought it was very funny that we hate modern graffiti but love it when it is very old. It is such a shame that vandals etc. have spoiled it for everyone so you can't get right under the stones any more. I was quite disappointed the last time I was over there and we had to be so far away. Still a wonderful sight but less than I remember. There is something wonderful about seeing them on top of the hill at dusk when driving along the road, though. Very other worldly.
22nd July 2009 Alastair Dobson	Arran Jumpers are not from Arran - From: Arran Jumpers Hiya, Just thought I would write a quick comment Aran Jumpers are actually from the Aran Isles in Galway Bay, Ireland. Glad you had a great trip to our island though.

20th March 2008 The Scoatlinds	Watch out for them there locals - From: Skyelarking That yin sittin oan the wa' looks a bit dodgy likes, when he's no interfering with skate he makes tourists drop their pants and "squeeeeel like a pig"!

Bob & Vik 12th March 2008 Occasionally Bob	Glad to have you back - From: Welcome to Scotland where the weather is FABULOUS! Thanks guys. I feel homesick. It looks amazing. The rain in NZ cannae compare to the tartan clad misery guts rain we get in Sco'lund. Can I give you a mission to make me feel better? Gonnae stick up a photo of the hideous buildings at the Nevisport end of Fort William High Street. Everytime I think of the building and carpark around WHSmith, Mackays and the Doctor Surgery I get a warm fuzzy feeling about not being there.
15th May 2007 Jo	Blogging only on the UK? - From: First flight of the Mini Egg: A trip to London with our baby girl. Please please please keep blogging. I'm doing most of my blogging from around Japan (where I live at the moment) but your domestic trips are still overseas adventures to someone else. Besides, I'm going to be in England and Scotland in a couple of months so it's interesting reading for me ;-) Jo Trouble p.s. congrats on the baby
Al, Shaz & Beth 15th May 2007 Eggs on Legs	Work... - From: First flight of the Mini Egg: A trip to London with our baby girl. Hi Steven - yip, Alan has been working in Knutsford for the past 7 months. I'm obviously not working, but wouldn't go as far as saying I'm bumming around, esp at 4am for Beebop's feeds! Hope you are well, Shaz. x

Bob & Vik 14th April 2007 Occasionally Bob	Mmm kebabs... - From: Parklife yum yum yum. Me pal Sylv went to the Walthamstow dog races once (home to East 17 no less)... she was also a bit disappointed with the whole affair. Have you ever tried doing accumulator bets on the footie? Rob got addicted after putting on 1 poonderly that he found down the back of the couch. There were spreadsheets and everything - sad!
10th April 2007 Kat & Fran	Love the photos! - From: In the land of the biscuit - the Caramel Wafer is King!!! Hey guys, was fab to meet you both (& bump at that time) at morv and craig's wedding. Beth looks absolutely gorgeous - big congrats! Looks like you're all having a lot of fun :)

9th April 2007 Amanda	Easter Greetings - From: In the land of the biscuit - the Caramel Wafer is King!!! The new update is fab - Beth is definitely a "bonnie wee lass". Your comment about taking her everywhere made me smile - I'm glad you take her everywhere - I think she's a wee bit young to be home by herself!!! You two seem to be settling in to the parent thing just great. Congrats again. Amanda xx
8th April 2007 Morv & Craig	Happy Easter from Barra! - From: In the land of the biscuit - the Caramel Wafer is King!!! Love the blog update, photos are fab. Having a great time here, the weather was great yesterday - not so good today but we wrapped up warm and went to the beach for a walk with Neil, Hughie and other cousins anyway. July will be great!

14th March 2007 Angela	Congratulations - From: A good old Scottish Wedding! I just had to put in my wee lil' say too!! (getting pretty Scottish ain't I?) that's after reading your whole blog, thru these days. So just had to tell you how interesting it was, and to congratulate you on your mini-egg Beth. I thoroughly enjoyed my arm-chair travels (sitting in Kuwait) with you and perhaps one day will enjoy sojouring thru Oz and NZ.. yeah someday!!! All the best and will drop in sometime to check out your future blog. You made fantastic reading. Thank you.
11th March 2007 anonymous	- From: A good old Scottish Wedding! Congratulations! That is such wonderful news. A baby girl - just lovely. I love little children, so that's why I'm so thrilled for you. Enjoy every minute with little Beth. They grow up sooooo fast, and before you know it, they are taller than you, KNOW more than you etc! Thank you so much for your comment to me. I guess I should have gone to your first page and I would have read about baby Beth, but I have your last blog saved and go there to see if another one has been posted. I'll still be watching out for more blogs from you, and might comment again sometime, if you wouldn't mind. Hope you make it back to Oz. (come on Paula!) I have longed to go back for years now, and can hardly wait. Also gotta go to NZ, as I spent almost a yr there too. (My mum used to call me a gypsy!) All the very best to the three of you.
Al, Shaz & Beth 2nd March 2007 Eggs on Legs	How nice! - From: A good old Scottish Wedding! To last commentor...... thanks for your wee note - that was nice. We should be publishing a blog soon featuring our little mini egg 'Beth' who was born on the 23rd Jan - 4 weeks early! It'll probably be from either Knutsford or Manchester where Alan is working at the moment so we spend a bit of time down there. Hope you have a great time in Aus - we cannot wit to go back again and have been poking our pal Paula to get her man down the aisle to give us an early reason to travel there again! Byeee! x
2nd March 2007 anonymous	- From: A good old Scottish Wedding! I loved reading your blogs and still keep checking if there are anymore posts. Actually waiting to hear about the birth of mini egg! Hopefully we'll see a few pics. Sure miss the humour/wit that was so distinctive to you guys. By the way, I'm the one who commented on "Geraldton" way back when. It sounds like you were right. The place is dead now. I am going to Oz within the next year or so and am going to make a point of heading over to the west coast and up to Geraldton just to see how things have changed. Should be interesting! Take care.
17th October 2006 Berny	Bra Fence - From: No Bungy Bra Fence was started in 1999. 4 women put their bras on it. Over the years many other bras were added and it became abig tourist attraction. This year, Queenstown and Lakes District Council decided it was a hazard and so the bras have all been removed. A local woman, Celia Williams is writing a book about it to raise money for breast cancer research.

I don't know what anyone else thinks, but I think Honkers McCabe has a ring to it. I also notice that you begin that particular blog by saying "it was the most active you'd been in months". Say no more! Best to you both, Bob & Vik.

26th June 2006 Steven RW	Appreciation to the BLOGS :) - From: Champagne backpackers. Reading the BLOGs has been ace. A very detailed and witty set of reports. I am just back in the office after two weeks in Barbados. Needless to say that upon returning we are already looking at where to go next year. Work is indeed that utterly BALLS.
13th June 2006 Kate	- From: Spooky Town Those poor poor whales. That is kind of creepy. It looks so kool looking though.
13th June 2006 Kate	- From: Tingle all over! That tree is so cool looking. I Wonder how it got like that?
13th June 2006 Kate	- From: Wine For Dudes. I have never seen a spider so big! That ant hill was pretty huge too! I really hate bugs so I would have just died if I saw any of that. See I'm from Louisana we don't have no big things like that. I'd rather see it in picture than in real life!
Al, Shaz & Beth 9th June 2006 Eggs on Legs	Europe can be exotic too..... - From: Champagne backpackers. Gazman - don't worry - we'll try to make the Europe leg as exciting as we can...we're going to some pretty fabby places that we've never visited before.... and as for the food - have you ever had pigs trotters in marsalla wine???
8th June 2006 Gaz.	- From: Champagne backpackers. Its sad, in a way, reading this one. I know you've got the Europe leg to go, but away out east...it was just so exotic. Things most of us had never seen, food we'd probably never tasted, unusual drinks. I could go on. Anyway- if I can speak on behalf of the legions of Ouefs fans- thanks for being so fantastic and reporting things in such elaborate detail,and with the ever-present humorous Egg twist. Often, it was almost like being there. I see future careers as travel journalists! Soon, Gaz
Al, Shaz & Beth 8th June 2006 Eggs on Legs	How bizarre... - From: Templed Out... It's probably one of our lazy-est blogs. Thanks for pointing out - we never noticed! Lookin' fwd to seeing you & Rob at the festy. Shaz. xxx
7th June 2006 Vik	You've made the big time - From: Templed Out... You're on the front page of travelblog!! Fame beckons : )
Al, Shaz & Beth 30th May 2006 Eggs on Legs	Twisting your knee! - From: It's in China. It's a wall. It's great. It's the Great Wall of China!!! Hi Ant - I did think as we hobbled round the wall, of your disasterous knee twisting circumstances at Simatai. Anyone reading this should check Ant's blog listing titled: MISHAPS ON THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA AND A LONG JOURNEY HOME - for a decent insight into another quieter section, and the trials of a ten km hike on the wall. Cheers!
Tony Steer 29th May 2006 Ant	BLOODY GREAT WALL - From: It's in China. It's a wall. It's great. It's the Great Wall of China!!! You see the Great Wall you saw looks like the one I was expecting to see? I've just taken a look at your great wall links to see what it says about Simatai where I went. Quote... 'Remember that much of Simatai is in a state of ruin.' 'Because this section has retained much of its original 500 year old features it offers a quite hazardous passage' 'take particular care not to loose your footing when stopping to take photographs!' YEAH, NOW THEY TELL ME? Hope your having fun. Tony
29th May 2006 Heidi	Get Well Soon - From: Here comes the rain again, falling on my head like amemoreeee! Hope you both feel a lot better soon. If you haven't been to the Great Wall yet make sure you get the toboggan down (Luke said it is great fun - I wasn't as brave and got the cable car!) xx Heidi
Al, Shaz & Beth 27th May 2006 Eggs on Legs	Ah, come on now girls - no fighting on the blog! - From: Here comes the rain again, falling on my head like amemoreeee! And Amanda - can't believe you wouldn't go for Chant No. 1 (I Don't Need This Pressure On) or To Cut a Long Story Short. They're magic. And the drama of Gold, well.........
26th May 2006 Amanda	Come back Tony, all is (not) forgiven - From: Here comes the rain again, falling on my head like amemoreeee! You can have this one Cath - I didn't catch it and that is most likely because I'm not much of a Spandau fan. If it's not True - it's just mince!! Although "genital wipes" would have been a goo Spandau song title because they were PISH!!!!!
26th May 2006 Cathy	Spanders song - From: Here comes the rain again, falling on my head like amemoreeee! Ha! Through The Barricades - indeed one of my faves! And I sincerely hope I've beaten Amanda to it cos that'll make the victory even sweeter!………
Al, Shaz & Beth 26th May 2006 Eggs on Legs	Gutted - From: How many Chinese guys does it take to change a light bulb? Gary - I'm personally gutted about the helmet / protein pills debacle. To my mind they are conspicuous in their absence. And another thing - I was expecting to have a jet pack complete with silver metallic jumpsuit by now too. Shaz. xx ps - nice to have you and Elly back on here 'guesting'. pps - I'm learning to love Gordon - its a shame he gets killed a hundred times a day, y'know.
26th May 2006 Gaz	Aye... - From: How many Chinese guys does it take to change a light bulb? I wish there was something I could add to the Maglev stuff, but that linky does the job. One thing: does anyone else feel a bit disappointed that, as its 2006, we arent in the flying cars/space suits in the wardrobe/take your protein pills and put your helmet on world we were promised? (Reminds me of the lyric to "I.G.Y" by Donald fagen, if you know what I mean.) Well, my hopes are up if this is anything to go by. As to Half-Life, Shaz- crowbars are your friend! G
25th May 2006 Laura (Rodgers)	- From: The furthest South we've ever been Hair is fab Alan..... sorry Sharon!
24th May 2006 Elly	You will soon love Gordon - From: How many Chinese guys does it take to change a light bulb? Shaz, I became a Half Life widow about 8 years ago. By Half Life 2 you will soon get to love Gordon Freeman!
Al, Shaz & Beth 24th May 2006 Eggs on Legs	Thanks! - From: How the other half live in Shanghai Old Town Eric - thankyou for letting us know the meaning of Jooo, and thanks for your comment. Regards, Shaz.
23rd May 2006 Eric Blair	jooo - From: How the other half live in Shanghai Old Town The storage jar contains wine. That's what the lady was trying to tell you. "jooo" means wine or a generic term for alcohol. Great pics!
19th May 2006 Amanda	Ask me something I don't know. - From: Shanghai Surprise Madonna and her then husband Sean Penn - it was the first thing that sprung to mind when I read the title of this blog. I could make some bad jokes about you two being the Penns, but since yous are being laughed at enough, I won't bother. Keep up the good blogs.

30th April 2006 Elly	Re Gaz:fruits of forrest - From: A couple of lazy bloggers. You should have done your research better Gaz. Loenard Rossiter advertised Cinzano, not Campari.
Al, Shaz & Beth 29th April 2006 Eggs on Legs	Nowhere Fast - Meat is Murder - From: A couple of lazy bloggers. Swaino - 'I felt such a natural emotion' at your double blog comment that I 'nearly jumped in the ocean'. Here's yours:' good times for a change, see the life I've had can make a good man turn bad'.
29th April 2006 Swaino	Smiffs quiz - From: A couple of lazy bloggers. 'each household appliance is like a new science in my town'?
28th April 2006 Swaino	No Dumb... - From: A couple of lazy bloggers. right Shaz, joke over, get the irish jig aff. Was in one of your other fav places for Easter - sunny Roma, Lu loved it, part from the walking. Partook in a bit of food of course, licking lips as typing
27th April 2006 Gaz	Fruits of the forest - From: A couple of lazy bloggers. My oracular powers (google) tell me that a chinotto is not, in fact, a facial feature from a Simpsons character (arf), but in fact: "a small bitter citrus fruit from the chinotto, or "myrtle-leaved orange" tree (Citrus aurantium var. myrtifolia). The tree grows to a height of 3m and can be found in Liguria, Tuscany, Sicily and Calabria regions of Italy. The chinotto is an essential flavor component of most italian bitter amari digestifs, and of the popular Campari liqueur." Campari and soda. How sophisticated. Mind Leonard Rossiter used to advertise it in the 70's? "A soft drink by the same name (Chinotto) is produced from the juice from the chinotto fruit and herb extracts. It appearance is similar to that of Coca-Cola. It is said to taste similar to naturally flavoured cola or Campari, with a distinctive bitterness. Chinotto soda dates back to the 1950s, and is produced locally in Italy by different small producers. It is predominantly consumed in Italy and Malta, but recently San Pellegrino, the carbonated water company, has started mass production and export in collaboration with Nestlé, with the brand name "Chinò"." So, its liquid Chinos! there you go- Al, btw, good to see that you have returned to the righteous path, my son, and are bearded up again. Too much flesh on the chin- well, you can have too much of a good thing, eh?

I look forward to your next update. Have a great weekend - I will be pouring beer for the local community at the annual Beer & Wine Festival here in Lacey - an event to help raise scholarship money for students at Saint Martin's. Is it hypocritical that we are a dry campus but are happy to sell booze to raise money!!! I know our Monks enjoy it - hahaha. No Buckie here though. Awrabest
24th March 2006 Gaz	Finally... - From: The 'Competent' Crew You know, when reading this I imagined 'Albatross' by the Mac playing in the background. It really helped the atmosphere. Try it and you'll see. Apart from the graphical descriptions of when you are being sick. For some reason, 'It ain't easy' by Big Dave Bowie fits really well at this point. Again, try it out. And now, some literary criticism. So much for this round the world lark. A nation of millions awaits your missives, you know. Did they make you build the boat or something? :) Chop the trees down and sand the timbers from your fingernail pairings? Lash them together with human hair (Al, you are excepted from this). Eh? That aside, another fine update from our antipodean adventurers, I think we all agree on that, eh readers?
24th March 2006 Sara	Mmmmmmmm? - From: The 'Competent' Crew I can think of a few much dodgier things you have 'taken home' from pubs lady!
24th March 2006 STeven_RW	sunset - From: The 'Competent' Crew Hi Guys, any chance u can send me the sunset pic at a higher resolution so I can use it for a backdrop? either to tfyus@hotmail.com or steven.ross.watt@rbs.co.uk! Cheers RW
24th March 2006 Marina - Shaz's pal from Schuh	oh what a comfy seat you have - From: The 'Competent' Crew I remember the wrought iron chair incident however can't remember the pub in Edinburgh where we aquired it? I do remeber managing to get it into the taxi though and sitting on it on the way home, glad to hear youv'e still got it!! taxi man must thought we were mad!!!

Graham Lines 14th March 2006 Linesy	Reply - From: Delivering the Mail in Queen Charlotte Sound Hi guys. Trip to Whitsundays was aboard the Kiana. Usually costs about $450 I think but a friend of mine goit some crazy deal for half price but there may have been some shennanigans with the travel agent!
Al, Shaz & Beth 10th March 2006 Eggs on Legs	Wonderful, simply wonderful!!! - From: Trailer Trash Gaz - have you ever considered a career in song writing - that wur great! And how fast are you on the old commentinos! Alan says that the only things frying are A) Your heed with nonsense, and B) Bacon for our brekko sannies. I agree that the front bit is the commonest - everyone would be able to see in the house when I eventually build it. C-ya pal, Shaz & Al. xxx
10th March 2006 Gaz	- From: Trailer Trash Travellin' in a fried-out camper Headful of Monteiths Summer Ale from our hamper We met a strange lady, but there was no peril Cos we live in a van called Beryl!

Al, Shaz & Beth 2nd March 2006 Eggs on Legs	Cheers Chazlie! - From: Tasmania - Just like Scotland, but with added sunshine!!

1st March 2006 Lynne aka Mrs Fanta Pants	Reading from Fanta Pants HQ - From: Special Anniversary Blog - WE ARE 50! Hiya! I'm really at work but that sounded boring. Your blog is v good and I am really enjoying reading it. The Shibui accomodation looked fab as did the Chateaubriand. I was going to email you a picture of my Sainsburys 'American inspired BBQ Chicken & Ranch Coleslaw' sannie to remind you of what you're missing back home. However, instead I've decided to keep a lunch blog which I will email you in due course. You two keep safe. Take care and remember...wash yersel!

28th February 2006 Cathy Agius	Silently watching - From: Special Anniversary Blog - WE ARE 50! Alan bloody McCabe, how the hell are you? "Tis I, the mad Cathster from the MDDUS. Thought you might be wondering who the heck was watching you that you didn't know! As you can see I've had a change of name. Decided to trade in old husband for new one!!! Have really enjoyed reading your blog. Amanda told me about it as I'll hopefully be moving down under sometime this year (hubby's an Aussie). It's given me loads of ideas about places to visit. Keep it up. Cathy :o)
28th February 2006 Malcy	anniversary - From: Special Anniversary Blog - WE ARE 50! have read all the blogs and very jealous. photos good and brought back memories of Oz. At least I wait till I get home before I read the blogs !!
28th February 2006 Morv	Forecast snow and we get sun? - From: Special Anniversary Blog - WE ARE 50! Going home on the train from Glasgow-Edinburger. The sun is shining but the snow is seemingly on the way. Nelson looks great. Mmm champers....place looks great!
28th February 2006 Amanda	Reading in Tacoma, WA - From: Special Anniversary Blog - WE ARE 50! Okay, not as catchy as Sleepless in Seattle ... love reading all about your trip. The pictures are excellent. I wish my photos were as good. Either I have a pish camera or I'm just pish as taking photos. Probably the latter. I'll bet Linley French could tell you what kind of fruit that is - being that she is a Kiwi, and is back living in NZ.
28th February 2006 Larissa	Its not too pish! - From: Special Anniversary Blog - WE ARE 50! Hiya, Still reading and enjoying the blog- good to see a bit of sunshine on a cold edinburgh morning! I was only in Nelson for one day when i was in NZ, but I loved it and wanted to stay forever. Enjoy your champers and 4 poster bed!

24th February 2006 Mrs Fanta Pants	Beetles - From: Floral Riot I didn't know you could actually get roadworthy Beetles. I thought they were only found in may bits sitting in a garage for years on end. Now you'll have given him the idea to go and buy another front end!!!!
Al, Shaz & Beth 24th February 2006 Eggs on Legs	Dearth of peeps - From: ....you won't be surprised to learn that the ghost tour wasn't scary..... Hi Steven - nice to hear from you - you must have been allowed a three minute break from doing flash reports to grab some time to write some comments, no? Re people - I know what you mean - sometimes we do it on purpose, waiting for folk to get out of the way before we snap. Lots of places we've visited have herds of tourists nashing around quickly so we try to avoid getting them in the frame. However, if we are on a street or market or cafe or something which has natural pedestrian population then that's a different story. Its more 'real'. Some places are however really quiet. Western Australia was especially so, and many of the beaches we visit are often practically empty. Bye for now, Shaz :-)
23rd February 2006 Steven_RW	No other ppl? - From: ....you won't be surprised to learn that the ghost tour wasn't scary..... I missed this blog when it came out and just read it now. What I do notice with the pictures is the lack of other people. It often looks like you two are the only people on the planet. Is it really that quiet in most of places you are at? Cheers! RW
23rd February 2006 Steven_RW	Glasgae Curry - From: Floral Riot Nothing like travelling as far round the globe as you can get from home to find a nice hot Glasgow curry ;-) Deary me! haha I am still reading avidly! Cheers Steven RW
Al, Shaz & Beth 15th February 2006 Eggs on Legs	Well done to the top dietician! - From: Big Beryl Hi Ellie - thanks for this. You know us - we'd rather eat nice food than take pills any day, so this is grand research indeed! We will get bitten - no doubt (flies love us) and we wonder how dodg the vegemite is going to look on our bites. Its very thick stuff you know. A&S xxxx
15th February 2006 Eleanor	vegemite on your bites - From: Big Beryl I was doing some research for you and if you do get bitten by sand fly's then rub the bite with vegemite. The vitamin B complex in it stops the itch. Taking vitamin B12 will make your pee turn yellow. Good sources of Vitamin B12 are meat,liver, fish, eggs and dairy products. The vitamin b12 will be better absorbed by the body than tablets so get eating!!!
Al, Shaz & Beth 11th February 2006 Eggs on Legs	V - From: TAZ mania Remember that TV programme 'V' it was on in the late eighties and the 'V' stood for Visitors, who were aliens. Thats how Robert Englund (Fredy) came to us on screen initialy. Anyway - Amanda, great to hear from you not sure where Linley stays but sling us her details ad we'll take from there. Also - we got a photo of a fab 50s style juke box which we think you'll like, coming up in the next blog. Byee. x
Al, Shaz & Beth 11th February 2006 Eggs on Legs	Southern Cross - From: TAZ mania Will this do?http://www.travelblog.org/Photos/154353.html It's a photo of a water pump which says 'Southern Cross' on it. It's the best we can do under the circumstances (lazyness basically). Se ya! Eggs xx
11th February 2006 Gaz	- From: TAZ mania Give Aus a big goodbye kiss from us.. and get a snap of the Southern Cross if you get a chance! G, E, BG.
10th February 2006 Amanda	Visiting folk you know - From: TAZ mania I don't suppose you'd be interested in stopping by Linley's place, but if you are, let me know and I'll pass along her email address. Your photos are amazing by the way, and your blog is as great as always. Cheers me up on a cold, wet, windy Washington day.
Al, Shaz & Beth 3rd February 2006 Eggs on Legs	Maybe it's just us? - From: Sometimes we go to places which are not that amazing...... Hi there - thanks for your comment - Re Geraldton, well, maybe its just our findings of the place - we're sure lots of others would really appreciate what it has to offer and it sounds like you had a good time there. Happy travels anyway, Shaz & Alan. ;-)
1st February 2006 anonymous	- From: Sometimes we go to places which are not that amazing...... Gee, I guess Geraldton sure changed in the years since I was there. It used to have at least 15 pubs, (and most pretty packed every day including Sundays) and the population was only 14,000. It was livlier than Perth! Had loads of fun there. Most of the pubs also had live bands playing. I even sang with a couple of bands when they came to town and wanted a female singer. ( That was extra cash for me to save and keep travelling.) I ended up staying there for about five months and working there too. What a shame, as I have fond memories of the place. I guess things change over the years.
31st January 2006 Gaz	- From: Eggs have a 'Big Day Out'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Havnae a clue, BUT: by the powers invested in me by Google: Here's the band talking about the track, shamelessly pinched from Melody Maker: Bob: 'That was supposed to be a cinematic thing about American tenement blocks. But it doesn't do that for anyone. So it's not about American tenement blocks at all, do you know what I mean? The idea was, she used to live there, but she got rich and moved away, and now she's going back. I got the idea from a horrible Seventies airbrushed painting I saw in a book called Rock Dreams of Diana Ross going back to where she used to live.' Pete: 'Jarvis does that in Sheffield. He drives round Sheffield in a limo, laughing.' And a comment from Robert Orchard who is a fan living in Croydon; 'I work in Croydon (Pete and Bobs home town), and I used to cycle to work. One morning, I was listening to So Tough, to Hobart Paving, and I stopped at some traffic lights, about a mile from where I work. I looked up and saw the words Hobart Paving on the back of a van, and nearly fell off my bike. Hobart Paving is the name of a construction company in Croydon.' So there you are. A Construction company in...Croydon. I'm sorry I asked now. Gazman
Al, Shaz & Beth 31st January 2006 Eggs on Legs	Chicken risotto - From: Eggs have a 'Big Day Out'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! James - fabbo to hear from you! Can you do us a favour and apologise to Andrew - we remembered about the chicken risotto tonight when we'd already eaten. Been ruff as a badger all day as continued to party when we got back down to Hobart. Also - would be good if we had your email address - so if you get a chance then pls send private message to us and we can send you a mail back. Cheers mate - Al & Shaz ;-)
31st January 2006 James	Park Stranger - From: Eggs have a 'Big Day Out'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! G'day Al and Shaz, I had a wonderfull afternoon on Monday, it is a good thing the Park Stranger scared you so much you decided to pop into the pub for a few beers. As we speak Park Stranger is hassling people and cleaning his cave. It was fantastic to meet you and have such an entertaining chat about life, travelling andBritish comedy television shows. Safe trekking. James, the world's greatest barman. Al stick to banking and holidaying, leave the jokes to me. Shaz, do not go anywhere near trees, the snakes are watching you.
Al, Shaz & Beth 31st January 2006 Eggs on Legs	Rain Falls Like Elvis Tears - From: Eggs have a 'Big Day Out'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gaz - we checked it already - first thing we did when we got here. It's not any different to the paving in Strathaven. However, we have been singni thi since we arrived, and Alan wants to know what 'Rain falls like Elvis tears' means. Any idea?
30th January 2006 Gaz	Hobart - From: Eggs have a 'Big Day Out'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! While you are in Hobart, can you check something out for me? You know the St Etienne song, "Hobart Paving"? I've always wondered what that is all about. Can you check out the paving in Hobart while you are there and see if it has some sort of remarkable paving or summat? much obliged- yir pal Gaz xx
30th January 2006 Gaz	Dancing Demon!!!!!!!!! - From: Kylie's Golden Hotpants Full marks, Al, go to the top of the retro class!! "Written in 1979 by Leo Christopherson for the Radio Shack Model I computer this is possibly the best game ever for it time. Dancin Demon used Machine Language in BASIC DATA statements a trick which Leo Christopherson pioneered on TRS-80 Model I with Android Nim and Dancing Demon and later Klendathu. When such programs are run, the program modifies itself and a save becomes impossible, but the original version off the original tape or disk can be saved in ASCII or even LLISTed without problem.

Al, Shaz & Beth 23rd December 2005 Eggs on Legs	Dont fight it, ......feel it! - From: Could we be on another planet? No jokes please. Paul- we should point out that its not us that made up FP - its a West Aus thing - you're just going to have to deal with it, mate! Anyway, it suits you, no? Sx
Lauren 22nd December 2005 AchtungBaby	- From: 2 Go Mad on Rotto! Thanks for your comment! You're right, I was talking about Lamingtons. :) I also recently discovered Tim-Tams, much to my waistline's dismay! Yum... Your pictures from W. Aus. are amazing!

18th December 2005 Eleanor	- From: Tingle all over! Were you both on "I'm a celebrity, get me out of here"? I am sure that those bridges featured in the programme!
12th December 2005 Steven RW	Idylic paradise! - From: Lazing on a sunny afternoon..again, and again.. Looks like a very relaxing area of Australia u are in now. I never made it to the east coast of Australia and your blogs are suggesting that it is a more relaxed area of wilderness and beauty than the east coast. I think you might be in for a shock when you end up back in the big smoke of Sydney for NYE! Reading your blog on a monday morning in Gogar is some motivator to get on with my work! ;) NOT! Cheers Steven
Al, Shaz & Beth 9th December 2005 Eggs on Legs	Whats with the brainy Latin references, Gaz? - From: Spooky Town Yah - I might have got the name wring - I'll have to double check. The Nullarbor is a desert anyway - which would be about right for ''no trees''. See ya. Eggs. x
8th December 2005 Steven RW	Spookyville! - From: Spooky Town Albany sounds like a pretty weird place! It always gives a strange feeling when you go somewhere where something has happened before. No idea why, probably just the over active human imagination, either way it’s a cool (unique?) feeling to be immersed in an environment where you can practically hear the past still occurring around you if you listen hard enough. Similar places? Ground Zero? Nordeschlief (Nurburgring race circuit in Germany they banned for F1 due to safety) amogst others. On another note entirely… little beach looks gorgeous :) plane ticket for Ross-Watt!!! Cheers guys Steven RW
7th December 2005 Gaz	- From: Spooky Town Wow, thanks! Actually, while you're on, I always thought it was called "Nullarbor", from the Latin for "No trees". And no, I didn't just Google that. No, really!
Al, Shaz & Beth 7th December 2005 Eggs on Legs	Big Jugs! - From: Wine For Dudes. Ian & Liz - we're looking fwd to those big jugs in NZ - it will be great to see / meet you. Eggs.x
Al, Shaz & Beth 7th December 2005 Eggs on Legs	Egg guess... - From: Tingle all over! Gaz - did you click on a google advert above the blog? By the way - we are loving your consistent sci fi approach - you never let us down. Also - Alan says he's putting on weight, not losing it - he's got a new name 'superpit' - we'll tell you why when we get to the Kalgoorlie Boulder blog. Luv ya, Eggs.
7th December 2005 anonymous	- From: Wine For Dudes. Dont have spiders that big over here in NZ - Only big beer jugs!!!! see you in NZ soon. Ian and Liz
6th December 2005 Gaz	- From: Tingle all over! Me again. I also couldn't work out why your last blog was called "Carribean Cruises $16". Were the eggs lost? Guess what I did wrong. Go on, guess!
6th December 2005 Gaz	- From: Tingle all over! Looks good. Real Man's trees! Kind of reminds me of the Ewok village from Star Wars Episode 6 (adopts Comic Guy from the Simpsons tone of voice.) And is it just me, or has Alan lost weight? Look, he really has!
3rd December 2005 RG	Like it all! - From: 2 Go Mad on Rotto! Hiya Joff and Shaz, been following yer adventrures. We're still alive and kicking by the way, love fae us Take care RG

We are hoping to get to Fraser Island at some point - I'll maybe have worked out a fly repellant recipe by then, we'll need to see! Re photos - we could bore you to death with a slide show that would last for a week with all the shots we have taken, so you'll have that to look fwd to next year! Shaz.

24th November 2005 Steven RW	Oh for a moment in paradise! - From: 2 Go Mad on Rotto! Rottnest looks awesome! A friend sent some pics back when he was over in W.A. flying and some of them were ariel shots of rottnest. Hopefully you will get to the Whitsunday Islands off the east coast at some point. They are equally gorgeous and many have no roads at all. I do recall the pesky flies! They are an issue all over Australia my worst experience being on Fraser Island with 70 on my back at once (photo available to honour the horrible moment!) I hope you guys keep the originals from your digicam as I would like to see the full size versions of many of your pictures. Happy Travels :D RW

I'm so glad you two are having a fantastic time and that I am along for the ride, albeit vicariously. I will be thinking of that blue sky and endless sunshine this coming Friday, known here in the States as "Black Friday".
14th November 2005 Gareth	The Zoo - From: A Glamourous Long Weekend in The City of Lions Yes, get to the zoo. The night safari is awesome. Also the aquarium and pink dolphins on sentosa island. Glad to hear it's all going well.

10th November 2005 StevenRW	Eh up MALACA! - From: Malacca, ya cracka! Firstly, are you aware that Malaca means wanker in Greek? Anyway,I think thats the best Blog yet! Some wonderful pictures. The little lantern one catches my eye for some reason. You can practically hear the wind rushing through the palm fronds and blowing the lantern around. Class! As for 'Raging ginger' the hair dye... that had me in stitches! :D Cheers RW

1st November 2005 Miriam	hello from the bank.... - From: Hey mistah - where are you going? Where you going??????? Hi Sharon & Alan - finally read all your travelblogs, gave me great morning entertainment while sitting out my leaving period at the bank. Am so jealous of you guys! Glad you liked Bangkok - think it's a great place myself ;-) I've just come back from a trip to Sri Lanka, can only recommend that one to add to you list: beautiful country, lovely people, very indian in feel but according to Indian travellers, much easier to "graps" and friendlier. Really loved it and the rainy season is just finished at the south of the island! take care Miriam
28th October 2005 Gareth	- From: Never seen lightning like this in my life!!! Great to see you again Sharon and nice to meet you Alan. Couple of comments. First, the scenery on the train being like Vietnam filsm... well, a large number of the movies(almost all) were filmed in Thailand. Others in the Phillipines. The Killing Fields was filmed in the area you wenbt through, and the 'American Embassy' is now a 5 star hotel in Hua Hin, a resort on the coast. Agreed, iot is an awful shame what the locals have done to Koh Tao. No planning at all. In fact, the island that is leased in Koh Nang Yuan, just off KT. The islanders are VERY resistant to any mainland interference, hence the terrible state of public services. Everything has to be brought from the mainland.. even fish and coconuts.. so the islanders, actually one family, have a monopoly on what comes in as they own the boats. The family also own the local building merchants, and if you bring materials to the island they slap a massive surcharge on it. Weather wise this is the most unperdicatble time of year in Thailand. Often you get 3/4 days of rain, followed by the same of good weather...but when it rains my word does it rain!!! Enjoy your trip as it continues, and keepm up the interesting blogs( and really good photos too)
27th October 2005 Amanda	- From: Never seen lightning like this in my life!!! I love reading your about your adventures - keep them coming. About the lightening - I did see a fantastic storm like the one you are talking about with the forked lightening only once when I was in south africa. It truly was mesmerizing. At least on that side of the world, when they have a storm, they have a strom. Enjoy yourselfs. Take care.
27th October 2005 Steven RW	Told you so? ;) - From: Never seen lightning like this in my life!!! Makes for fun reading! I was in Thailand at the same time as you are and had some lovely weather and some pretty minging weather! I wouldn't give up on it however I totally agree that the islands are very boring when the weather is bad as there is very little to do! For Picturesque you have to go to Kho Phi Phi on your return journey. What a BEAUTIFUL little island it is and not TOO many mini tips ;). As for the packs of dogs, they can be quite frightening but as you say its usually towards other dogs not humans. As for the 'lucky' burger... all I can say is.. HAHAHAHAHA :D things obviously never change! I bet you it was a chicken burger and they just never bothered to tell you! Love reading about the travels. Travel Safe Steven
