| 15th June 2008 Dawn | miss you & karma - From: Good Karma & Goodbye to Kaeng Krachan National Park Hey Shaun, miss our talks at OMP; we have alot in common going ons in our life or mid-life crisis.... yep me too! Karma is when you showed up first walking down from OMP office and I never met you nor know of you, and we shook hands at OMP and you said "you know, I got an email from you." OMG! Small world that I would actually meet one of you travel bloggers out there! Talk about Karma! Keep positive...we are all in this together! Dawn |
| 13th June 2008 ST100mph | Back in Poland - From: Good Karma & Goodbye to Kaeng Krachan National Park Greetings to you Jacek, & thank you for all of your comments over the past months - very much appreciated! |
| 13th June 2008 ST100mph | Silk worms - From: Good Karma & Goodbye to Kaeng Krachan National Park Hi Kate, I am now back in sunny England & feeling the cold. I am glad that you found my stories interesting, and have much appreciated your comments over the last 4 1/2 months. I guess that there will be maybe 1 or 2 more entries to finish off the story, so watch this space! |
| 11th June 2008 Kate | Goodwill - From: Good Karma & Goodbye to Kaeng Krachan National Park Goodwill never lost, you are right, Karma good or bad has a way of closing the circle. I lost £300 cash once and just had to hope that the person who found it needed it a great deal better than me! I loved the photos of the silk farmer by the way. I have sent that to my sons. You know you could probably make a little money for the charity by offering to do talks and slide shows to schools or community groups in this country, you are very informative! |
| 10th June 2008 Jacek Katzer | Greetings - From: Good Karma & Goodbye to Kaeng Krachan National Park Greetings from city of Lodz in Poland. |
| 6th June 2008 ST100mph | Surfacing slowley - From: Sunday Market at Pala-U Sounds like a good deal to me Steve. Maybe Nick can direct, Brian can be special effects Man ;-) |
| 5th June 2008 Steve (Mr Memoirs) | Repatriation ? - From: Sunday Market at Pala-U Hi Tiger, not long to go now before you need to start heading back home. It's almost like resurfacing after a deep sea dive....need to come back to the surface gradually, take it easy, don't lose touch with those feelings, don't fall back into the westerner trap to quickly - your blood sugar levels might soar........ That said and done....do you fancy going to the British speed-way Grand Prix in Cardiff on the 28th of June then on to the after party event with all the famous bikers in the evening ( all tickets with compliments from Nick) ? Well what do you say...you could thrill Brian and myself in the pub with your exploits....before entering the stadium (too noisy after that :) ). Oh yeah...about what I said at the start....nothing wrong with diving straight back into the westernised way of living as soon as possible either!! :) Let me know so I can organise a ticket for you. Steve PS. Can I ghost write your memoirs for you and star as you in the film? Oh go on, go on, go on, go on !! see ya soon |
| 27th May 2008 Kate | - From: Sunday Market at Pala-U Bring me back some of that whisky???? |
| 25th May 2008 Melanie Pittam | - From: Sunday Market at Pala-U You're looking really well Shamus. Great to see pics again. Take care xxxx |
| 25th May 2008 jerry | fruit and veg - From: Sunday Market at Pala-U hi-great photos from the market- can you make us ameal like that when you get back? |
| 23rd May 2008 ST100mph | Damn those scouse taxi drivers! - From: New adventure started in Pala-U Hi Steve, it's good to here from you, and glad you had a great time. If you would like to write my biography you are very welcome :-) I must admit t's true what Jazek said, you really don't need all of that extra cargo, + I have been bailed out by my Thai friends. I hope to be able to put up some more photo's soon - just to make you jelous of course! Still, I'l be back home in 3 weeks, so we'll have to catch up over a pint. Cheers! |
| 22nd May 2008 Steve | Not a scoucer in sight ! - From: New adventure started in Pala-U Hi Tiger, Just got back from Dubai after a week and thought I had troubles with my post holiday blues.... until I caught up with your blog and read about that scoundrel of a taxi driver (was he wearing a shell suit, mussy and curly hair?). I can joke - knowing you are OK is THE most important thing. What an absolute pain in the a%&£ but a great response from Jacek about no better way to lose your luggage!! With a little poetic licence this could be made into a great yarn, fable, story - to tell the grand kids how Tiger Toms fought off bandits riding an elephant with only his bare hands and the help of his trusted companion - his pet king cobra....I can be your editor if you want!! Seriously, great to hear you are OK and don't worry about the pictures... they only made us all even more jealous of your fantastic adventure :) Take care Tiger, Steve |
| 22nd May 2008 ST100mph | Camera - From: New adventure started in Pala-U I have a spare, but did not have leads or charger. Have now got an adapter for charging, just need a lead to download. I hope all is well for you & Tony. I am looking forward to seeing you both soon. ShaunX |
| 21st May 2008 Ola Francombe | don't get cobbraed! - From: New adventure started in Pala-U I thought you have lost your camera - obviously not! don't envy the snakes in toilets - you better protect your crown jewels! |
| 19th May 2008 Kate | Intrepid Traveller - From: Mini Disaster in Bangkok Well, at least you are OK! Its a real pain to lose stuff that you think you rely on, but once its gone you realise what is really important - your health and your loved ones. I had a bad house fire once and lost a lot of stuff, so do understand this one. You have had some fantastic opportunities this trip, and unless I'm way off the mark here, found a very special lady too? You have memories to last a life time, and whatever you do next, I'm sure these experiences will have changed you for the better. Keep posting, the words are just as welcome as the pictures - and keep in touch once you're back. |
| 18th May 2008 Melanie Pittam | - From: Mini Disaster in Bangkok Nightmare Shamus. We will miss yours pics. Take care. Sissy xxx |
| 18th May 2008 ST100mph | Thank you for those words of wisdom Jacek..... - From: Mini Disaster in Bangkok ...... that realy makes me feel much better! I really am back to basics now but making the most of it. Cheers Shaun |
| 17th May 2008 Jacek Katzer | The best entry ever !!!! - From: Mini Disaster in Bangkok Shaun - this is the best entry in your TravelBlog!!! You could lose your luggage on your way back in Terminal 5, but this way of losing luggage is much more in Indiana Jones style!!! Now you are transformed from a western tourist into a real tough and bold man. Greetings from webmaster of www.katzer.pl |
| 11th May 2008 HELEN | - From: Sharon returns home Glad to see you both looking so healthy and happy. love to you both. hx |

| 16th April 2008 Steve | Party crashers - From: Beach party on the Mekong Hi Tiger & Tigeress, Where there's a party eh! Good to see the both of you sunning it up (hi sharon) and enjoying yourselves. The pictures don't portray just how hot and humid it is out there....your narration is great so don't go thinking of showing sweat and all that!! :) Take care, Steve |
| 16th April 2008 Kate | Wow! - From: A close encounter deep in the rain forest I'm in awe of the experiences you are having - and what a beautiful cat. You must have been quaking in your boots though! I think you are getting a little closer to nature than I would be comfortable with, but I have a lot of admiration for you. You'll have to apply for one of those reality TV 'I'm in a jungle, get me out of here' shows when you get back - you'd ace it! And eating frogs - hmmmmm maybe not! |
| 16th April 2008 Haulwen | WOW!! - From: A close encounter deep in the rain forest OK sooooo jealous. Wow can't believe you saw that black leopard. I've always wanted to go to the rain forest. Bet its was scary but exciting too. H |

| 21st March 2008 ST100mph | Keeping the show on the road! - From: Arrival In Kaeng Krachan National Park Hi Mike, it's good to hear from you & I hope all is well back in the land of cheese! The biggest problem I have is getting on the internet as some of the places do not even have telephones. Once I do get internet access, theres not enough time to spend writing the blog. Anyway, I'm glad I've kept you ammused, & I'll try to keep the updates comming as often as possible. Cheers Shaun |
| 21st March 2008 mike mclaughlin | From Mike - From: Arrival In Kaeng Krachan National Park I am really getting into your tour blog. The people ,places and things you are reporting on are fascinating . Not sure how you are managing it all and keeping the 'show' on the road but I can't wait for the next installment. It's all going to be bit of anti climax after this tour. |

| 19th March 2008 ST100mph | Tiger Temple - From: Tiger Temple - Wat Pa Bua Yannasampanno Forest Monastry Hi Ruth, It's good to hear from you. I hope that the Temple lives up to your expectations. I am sure that it will. I don't know how long that you intend to travel for, but I am now doing volunteer work with an organisation called Openmind Projects. You can see their website at www.openmindprojects.org . It has added a new dimension to my travels & I would highly recomend them. Good luck Shaun |
| 18th March 2008 ruth de Reus | Tiger Temple - From: Tiger Temple - Wat Pa Bua Yannasampanno Forest Monastry Hi from New Zealand. Your journal entries of your travels are fantastic! I too am planning on visiting the Tiger Temple in Thailand in a few months time & reading what you have to say about the sanctuary has made me more determined to do this now! Great to read your updates & thank you. Ruth |

| 13th March 2008 Maria | P3110598 - From: A day in Vientiane I love you. Yo are my idol. All my life I waited for you. What's your name? |
| 13th March 2008 Jacek Katzer | Park ranger - From: Phu Wua National Park Holy Tiger - park ranger : ) you are joking. He looks like a communistic partisan or guerrilla fighter of a local drug cartel. |
| 13th March 2008 ST100mph | Imperial Tobacco in Laos - From: Phu Wua National Park Hi mate, I saw the Laos Tobacco factory in Vientiane. Is this anything to do with Imperial? Maybe you should consider it? Give my love to Lou & the kids. Maybe we can catch up on Skype later? Cheers Shaun |
