| 17th October 2008 Richard Morris | - From: Escape from Auchlochan! I just stumbled on your blog following a search for 'Auchlochan' on google. I am a pilot and fly into Glasgow on a daily basis, on numerous occasions i have looked down at this oasis in the hills but couldn't quite place it. the last time i flew over i had the sense to check the co-ordinates from the gps and with a little help from google earth found the place instantly. I'm not exactly sure what i was expecting or hoping for but having read a little about the place and your peice i hope it is sometime before i visit on foot. hope your parents are happy, it really does look like a beautiful spot.

| 6th October 2006 Prasanta Paul | Toy train chugs - From: Steaming to Darjeeling by Toy Train I would love to see you re-visit Darjeeling in the Toy Train and make a critical assessment now vis-a-vis your last visit. Darjeeling, I understand, is fast losing its charm due to some reckless construction. I've written about it; if you also chip in with some critical remarks, it'd help. |
| 1st September 2006 Ken Wallace | Sideways - From: Iranians, Jews and art deco cinemas in Westwood Village, L.A. Being a southern California native, and having grown up visiting Westwood movie theaters, I find your perspective on the area interesting. I do take issue with your description of Sideways as boring--I don't think I have ever laughed as hard as I did during that movie. Happy travels. |

| 29th April 2006 Neo | Some memories leaves golden impression. - From: Cold in Darjeeling! Years back I had everything including family,friends,college….love…life. Now look at me I’m a professional now and I have come so afar from Darjeeling. I have nothing left of that place with me except for the little tea bud in my diary which reminds me of Darjeeling and few memories. I love that smell of the forest when you walk across the Tenzing Norgay rock. I love the feeling when the snow crackles beneath your feet. I just wanna say that nobody out here is friendly. Nobody gives me Momos,aaloo bhuja,Thukpa and that classical cup of tea.I know someday that I will be back.The tea out here sucks. Until then adios Darjeeling and Kudos to your beauty and your mountains. And mind it the photo which you see Assembly of God church School is my School and I love my school. I was a school captain out there. And thanks to people in coordination of this website. Appreciate your work with deepest gratification…Neo. |

| 4th March 2006 Don McMorland | Lebong racecourse - From: Cold in Darjeeling! Thank you for the picture of Lebong racecourse. My mother was born in Lebong in 1906, 100 years ago next May. I have always wanted to go there, and plan a trip, hopefully this December, with my son. I have barely been able to find Lebong on maps before, and this is the first photo (apart from one of my mother as a babe in arms 100 years ago on the front verandah of their house) that I have seen of Lebong. Thank you. |
