| 11th May 2009 Pete | 'Folk dance' - From: And to Peru Hi Cat, I would just like to congratulate you on your amazing journalistic powers. I was most interested to hear that sexual assault is rife in Peru. It has restored my faith in human nature. I also applaud your excellent pictures of said scene. I laughed a lot. Nearly as much as when earlier in these entries you chronicled, in pictures, the journal entry you were writing to your Bra. Hurrah for Folk dance. Stay safe both of you. xxx |
| 5th May 2009 Gareth | Veron - From: There Are Pigs on the Runway Hi Nic - thought I`d make my first blog contribution a worthwhile one - it`s definitely Veron! He plays for Estudiantes in Argentina these days. Disappointed you didn`t get his autograph! |
| 3rd May 2009 cat's mum | It's him - From: There Are Pigs on the Runway Ian says yes it certainly looks like Veron! |
| 10th April 2009 Cat's Mum | comment - From: It Takes Two to Tango Loved your tango picture. Think should be your new facebook picture. Also what's the good of passing on all my advice if you ignore it. I have a lot you can ignore about Peru |
| 20th March 2009 Pete (Soon not to be MRPharmS) | Thank you - From: Hot stuff and cold ice Hey guys! Hope ur well. Cat, your postcard came this week, thank you so much. It looks amazing, all of it! I'm glad ur having a wonderful time! The pictures her of the volcano's are so cool too!! A postcard with a spitting blowhole would've been more my cup of tea. Haha... Stay safe! Pete. xxx |
| 16th March 2009 Rich | Beards? - From: Hot stuff and cold ice How is that facial hair coming on? (Nic not Catherine) I'm sure I see a bit of a beard in the Abel Tasman photo? |
| 2nd March 2009 Rich | - From: A man with a van, and a can of Spam I have to say Cath - i am impressed with your blog - maybe u r cleverer than me - very nicely written! Looks amazing. Tell Nic well done with the jump - there's no shame in being sick after that - i still can't go on a roundabout! Hope you continue to have fun |
| 2nd March 2009 r.i.swan | - From: A man with a van, and a can of Spam Pleased nic safely on land again. Also that you stuck to your guns and didn't join him. Report writing coming on leaps and bounds. I thought it was very descriptive. |
| 16th February 2009 catmum | dad'd birthday celebrations - From: Howzat? Seems me and you overdid the celebration of dad's birthday! |
| 16th February 2009 Rich | Barmy army! - From: Howzat? Just a quick note to see how proud i am of u sis that you really captured the true spirit of an English cricket fan abroad - and the fact that England wern't playing and u managed to get that hammered that u passed out in the toilets - genius! Everyone is good here - little O is just about ready to walk - ive been putting lots of new pics on facebook. Hope u continue to enjoy the trip, stay safe Rich, Kat and Owen x |

| 7th January 2009 M Swan | More than a bit of a comment - From: Jungle fever You wrote very well and it was a colourful account. Thoughts- 1.You would not go on a donkey never mind an elephant. 2. Elf and safety/ Thailand dont seem to go together. 3. Remember the kite mark this includes food standards. 4. Do you get food poisoning from me? No, everything is well done. 5. That Nic would be the teacher's pet was never in doubt! |

| 20th December 2008 Pete | - From: Up in the Highlands and on Hehe, Cat, with all due respect, are you writing a journal entry about that bra infront of you? Everyone needs a muse. Amazing pictures and stories so far.... xxx |
| 18th December 2008 cat's mum and dad | loud bangs - From: Up in the Highlands and on She was never any good at Scarborough Navel battle. |

| 16th December 2008 Pete | Hoi Hoi!! - From: Hazards, Tailors and Garlic This all looks amazing! I'm so glad I'm such a good stalker and managed to find out I could keep up with you both on this blog! I'm so glad you're having a good time so far; make sure the tailor compensates for the weight you're likely to lose in Thailand!! I came back a shadow of my former self; as you know Cat... Anyhow, I'll be looking out for the next instalment, nausea and all! Stay safe you two. Pete. xxx |
| 14th December 2008 cats mum and dad | how U doing - From: Don't read if you're feeling sick Dear Nick pleased you are feeling stronger. Catrherine's nana found your log hilarious. Now you both wish you were 5 ft 2. |
| 7th December 2008 ri.swan@btinternet.com | Should you really - From: Hazards, Tailors and Garlic Not too impressed with mode of transprt. Remember the Bristish standards kite mark! |
| 6th December 2008 Pete | Hello - From: Out of Hanoi Hi, it's your cousin Pete, nice to see you're having a good time. Good to see you're both safe and well. |
| 5th December 2008 cat's mum | A bit of a comment - From: Out of Hanoi Seeing Catherine might not venture to the computer again I'm loving you for updating regularly Nick. Still snowy! Love Cat's mum and dadxx |
| 3rd December 2008 Charlie | - From: Only me Hey guys, Well after reading a mammoth blog about your plans to go travelling and the beautiful views of Bristol (?!), I eventually got to the exciting stuff...I as I'm sure everyone was pretty keen to know what you'd done despite the problems in Thailand. On the Wednesday morning, so the morning after you left, I was quite comfortably drinking my tea and eating my shreddies only to hear that the Bangkok airport had been shut. Only this could happen to you. I had images of Nick crumbling under the pressure that the plans had changed!! Good to hear that you've adjusted well...Singapore's probably quite a good intermediary place to start, efficient (as Nick's loving) like Britain yet gently lowering you into the Asian ways of life!! You'll love Vietnam!! So good to hear from you, and like the others have said, I love the photos...again, not sure we'll get them throughout your travels as internet connection is probably at its fastest in a developed efficient place like Singapore!! Looking forward to the next entry! Charlie xx |

| 1st December 2008 Gran | - From: Only me Glad you have found a good alternative to your plans. It gives me and my colleague at TIC great pleasure in following your trip. My colleague did something very like your trip back in the 60's ! looking forward to reading your next update. love from Gran |
| 29th November 2008 Hannah | This is brilliant! - From: Only me Wow! This is great reading what you are both up to. Glad you arrived safely even through all the disruptions. I'm going to enjoy reading what you've been doing and looking at the photos whilst I'm sitting here on a grey and wet winter's day..joy!? Look forward to reading the next installment. Take care. Missing you already XXX |
| 27th November 2008 Claire | Yeay! - From: 1st stop, Singapore - not Bangkok Wow - am I glad to read your blog! I've been worrying about you both! Hope it all works out okay and you get to Hanoi as planned. Knew you'd like Singapore, Nic. Good to see you've named the little fellas - I see Pat is still disabled. Keep blogging, please (I don't want my hair to turn grey with worry!!) BIG HUGS XXX |
