| 8th November 2007 Rach | - From: Tourtles Hey chucks, sounds like your really enjoying turkey, must say you have sold it to me, sounded poop before that. Sounds like you stayed in a really nice place. Finally extending the food habits are we? HEHEHE rob your looking very brown on some of your pictures. |
| 8th November 2007 kate | cats cats cats - From: Shorts In November The day at the beach sounded wonderful especially as the weather getting cooler here. You certainly seem to attract cats! Now when you get home if you wanted a pet - a cat would be better than a ra....sorry, didn't mean to be insensitive. Love mumxxxxxx |
| 8th November 2007 kate | duckie and friend - From: Visionary House I could make loads of comments of a cultural kind but i'll leave that to others and just say it was lovely to se Duckie again. Love mumxxxxxxx |
| 8th November 2007 Mum | Duckie??? - From: Mustafa Kemal One thing I have noticed is that most people are really friendly and very willing to help. That comes across all the time. The other thing is whatever has happened to dear old Duckie? Please refer to him in your next blog. Love mumxxxxxxxxxx |
| 8th November 2007 kate | What is ....? - From: First Turkish Kebab What's a Penny Lane wine bar moment? |
| 8th November 2007 kate | there and back - From: Middle Of Nowhere As I read this blog you have just left IstaNbul and I know that 2 weeks later you are back there again. These blogs are well out of date. Come on you two, try a bit harder to please your public!! only joking ) |
| 8th November 2007 Brian | Duckies Demise - From: Middle Of Nowhere Great concern is being expressed at Duckies Demise, has he gone on holiday on his own, has he left you for another, has he found a soul mate, or is he lost in Europe somewhere, or worse still left in a hostel to his own devices?? Do we need to contact the international Red Cross to find Duckie |
| 7th November 2007 anonymous | - From: Football Mania Izmir here I come! ( but not likely to be by a bus...!) Stob, this place sound absolutely lovely - nice and traditional. Your description conjurs up a magical picture - thank you! Keep up the good work you two - what an amazing array of experiences you are getting by doing things this way. It has to beat the 'hotel and organised trips' way of doing things that so many tourists follow. Talk again soon, love, Irene. xxx |
| 3rd November 2007 Ken | Running off with women - From: Fishing For Tourists 1979, Istanbul. We drove there. Interestingly someone got hold of Diane and me in broad daylight and chatted but then started to direct her away from me. I just laughed but she got worried and shouted and then so did I and she got released. It clearly has not changed! |
| 3rd November 2007 Ken | Topkapi (film) - From: The New Faces Of Saudi Arabia. You'll have to watch that film which is quite good from the 1960's. Arthur Simon Simpson (Peter Ustinov) and gentleman crook (Maximilian Schell) try to steal the emerald-encrusted dagger of the Ottoman sultans from Istanbul's Topkapi Museum where it is exposed for tourists to admire. |
| 1st November 2007 Brian | - From: The New Faces Of Saudi Arabia. Sounds agreat place to be, so different to your earlier experiences in eastern europe,could do with trying the smoking waterpipes and this might make watching the Boro a bit better at the moment,keep on with the blogs look forward to the next |

| 31st October 2007 kate | busy busy - From: Red Sky At Night, Turkish Delight Istanbul sounds like one hectic, overcrowded but fascinating place. You will be adding to their tourist trade with your descriptions and experiences. Sonds like a must, especially as you will have worked out strategies of dealing with the local traders!. |
| 31st October 2007 kate | Seen one....... - From: King Of The Castle So you enjoyed the castle did you Steph, despite always saying 'Seen one, seen them all!' We visited Pembroke castle recently and LOVED it because it had everything a castle should have - though not an execution stone!! Like the sound of the marmite sandwhiches though. Love mumxx |
| 28th October 2007 emma | - From: Travel Plans 2 you should definitely do one of the weekend desert tours. they seem quite expensive comparatively but it's well worth it. and go to fez if you get the chance. i loved it there. oh yeah, and you'll be ill the WHOLE time you're in morocco if my experience was anything to go by! |

| 21st October 2007 kate | born in a storm - From: Oompa lumpa or babushka? The lack of wine in 1985 can be explained easily. As there was a storm here on a special day in August so there must have been storms all over Europe as a welcome to you, Steph. Bad weather equals no grapes!! Love Mumxxxxxxxx |

| 15th October 2007 kate | slowing down? - From: Blah Blah Partisan Two relaxing days! Are you slowing down a bit. I notice that alcohol still features regularly though whatever else you do! Good for you. I'm quite envious. Love mumxxxxxx |
| 15th October 2007 irene | er, how,exactly, ...... - From: Not Enough Room To Swing A Rabid Dog Quote - "I was so glad of my torch even though Rob mocked me for using it, but better safe than sorry." Er, from a dog - lover how did you use your torch Steph? I do hope you used it to light up the way for the poor little homeless darlings. I would hate to think you might have wacked them with it....... |
| 14th October 2007 kate | spontanaity - From: Seven Brides For Seven Mingers Hi What sounds so good is when you stumble across something going on and stop to listen/watch etc. Often better than the organized stuff. Love Mum xxxxxxxxx |
| 14th October 2007 Kate | cats - From: No Room At The Inn We were reluctant to let you stroke cats in France and here you are petting every stray that you possibly can!! Mmm... |
| 14th October 2007 Kate | Swimming with the...... - From: The Pizza-less Pizzeria So you didn't fancy going 'Swimming with the jellyfish,' then? It would have been a bit different to common or garden swimming with dolphins. Love mumxxx |

| 26th September 2007 Mark | Supermarkets - From: Kiev Has A Moon - At Last! Actually Kyiv has lots of 'normal' supermarkets...you just have to know where they are. One of the big challenges is obviously the cyrillic alphabet and the language barrier. There's a decent grocery store pretty close to your hotel actually...around the corner and on Khreschatyk heading towards Maidan...ask at the front desk. |
| 25th September 2007 Brian | Vodka - From: Kiev Has A Moon - At Last! After having a laugh at your latest exploits I do wonder what has happened to the last four years of drinking (student ) life ,have you got out of practice already, anyone for another vodka ROB |
