| 28th July 2006 Dan | how curious - From: A tail of three cities How did the panda get in the tree? It kinda looks like he's not entirely sure himself. It's a funny thing conservation. Not content with ruining our own evolutionary development with western medicine we now have stringent laws to ensure that celibate, infanticidal, lazy idiot animals propagate their celibate, infanticidal, lazy idiot genes into a new generation! WHY? Who's the guy in the taoist temple who looks like the one who chose poorly in Indiana Jones and the last crusade. Most of all how come I've only just got this almost a month after seeing you in Battersea Park and a couple of days after the "come to our leaving drinks" email? Good work by the way.

| 27th May 2006 Annie | - From: Crouching Tom, Hidden Snoozy With my vertigo I don't think I'd want to do the Cloudy Tourist Road. Unless I'm feeling particularly cloudy, that is. Did you guys REALLY do that trek? And you REALLY, SERIOUSLY recommending it? 'Scuse me a moment while I go and lie down. The less vertiginous pictures are beautiful, National Geographic are running a photo comp at the moment which I suggest you enter, that's if you can decide which of your photos to use - they're all absolutely stunning. I'm going to love meeting up with you both when you're back but I'm sure going to miss your blogs! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 26th May 2006 Ma&Roly | Haute cuisine - From: Crouching Tom, Hidden Snoozy Hi there - pictures ever more stunning! We'll have a duck-skin dinner waiting for you when you get back to Blighty.

| 22nd May 2006 Trev | - From: Lost in Transaltion Is your blog better than the bloggiest blog on a blog day in blogville? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 22nd May 2006 Dan | Side salads - From: Lost in Transaltion 'ello. when we were kids my sister had a rabbit called bobby that was always burrowing out of his run and wreaking havoc around the village. it's surprisingly easy to wreak havoc in our village. anyway - eventually he managed to disappear completely. shortly afterwards we went to portugal on holiday and dad ordered a piri piri rabbit stew which came with the skull in the middle of the plate. my sister cried for ages when my dad said "so that's where bobby went". doesn't look like there's many sights to see except the tunnel in the bund sightseeing tunnel. tunnel does look cool though. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 21st May 2006 Vivien | - From: Lost in Transaltion Brings Back lots of good memories! I can empathise so much- the people, the language, crossing the road, ordering food, booking trains, some of the loos are probably the most challenging places to visit, ! its quite an experience, Guilin looks lovely, Looking forward to hearing more, love Vivien x | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 21st May 2006 Annie | - From: Lost in Transaltion Wow!! You went to Guilin!!! I've only ever seen it in pictures and have never met anyone who actually went there, you lucky people. It's almost unreal the way those mountains shoot up out of the ground, almost like something out of Lord of the Rings. Re: the chicken-head and claw supper, I think that the image of some of the food is one thing that's put me off ever going to mainland China, however, the rest of your blog makes me want to get on the first plane there. Great pictures, guys!xoxoxox | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 13th March 2006 Finola | Jealous or what! - From: Ahh yeah, sweet as Well, some people probably would be jealous of the sights you have seen. Not me! I'm telling myself that I am much better off here in London putting up with .... (have to be careful here). But truthfully, it sounds fantastic and even if the camera broke, as you say, the images and memories will be there forever. Love to both of you and Jez and Penny. Your other buddy here is almost packing. She's impossible after the France v England result yesterday! Finola | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 13th March 2006 Dan | Hamsters are all from Siberia - From: Ahh yeah, sweet as .. I'm a bit sketchy on the details but I'm pretty sure that their lineage can be accurately traced right back to 2 original hamsters (adam and eve) although I don't know where they came from.. probably space! Beautiful writing as always and just what I needed to settle into Monday morning after sunday night in the pub cellar running extension cables through puddles trying to get the juke box to work. Keep it up. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 12th March 2006 Vivien | - From: Ahh yeah, sweet as Your trip just gets more and more amazing!! Say hi to Jez and Penny for me, and have fun, its snowing in Bristol at the moment!

Love Viv xx | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 11th March 2006 Rob | Jaguars ear-lobes - From: Ahh yeah, sweet as Arrrgggh. Dammit, what the Sauron is this Hobbit doing in Guildford when there are quite clearly far better places to be? NZ looks amazing. Of all the places you've been and told me about, for some reason NZ really strikes a chord and makes me want to pack a bungey rope and Tramp on over there. I've gotta say your blogs are bloody well written, especially for a lawyer Tom. You should've flogged 'em to the Times Travel supplement or something. Keep up the excellently illustrative blogs. Enjoy the rest of NZ and warn them i'll be coming! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 11th March 2006 Annie | - From: Ahh yeah, sweet as I can feel my head clearing just looking at those beautiful mountains. Sooz, you are an inspiration, where did you learn to do all that stuff?! And you've answered the age-old question of why dolphins always have a smile on their faces... Another great blog, although for some reason I missed the last one. Keep up the good ..er.. work? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 11th March 2006 Helen b | You guys really know how to have fun - From: Ahh yeah, sweet as Any idea about your itinery in aus yet?

Take it easy and have heaps of fun - I'm sure you will Cheers FT | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2nd March 2006 Calum | poor bstds - From: Many Islands Many Sharks I have been reviewing your photos and you have my sympathies - the weather seems terrible and the beaches and sea look horrendously dirty and crowded... you utter, utter (and for the avoidance of doubt) UTTER bstds. Good to see you guys still enjoying yourselves - looks like you are having an amazing time. Keep it up. Best wishes from London. PS Snowing here.

| 2nd February 2006 Jimmer | Hello - From: Life at the end of time Dear Tom and Suse how are you doing, hanging upside down in a cave with strange birds I bet Tom, making sure that you both don't get sunburnt! Anyway keep safe and watch it in Tahiti I have heard its shit. Bye Jimmer | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 30th January 2006 Dan | woohoo! monday morning - From: Life at the end of time helo. writing nerdy code on a hangover is like pouring a kettle of scaldingly hot water over a 3rd degree burn on your head (i imagine) - it's probably not quite that bad - anyhow - imagine my joy to find that i didn't have to start right away because i had another episode of travels with tom and suse to read instead. it was like an olive branch wielding dove flying through a sky filled with the strangled cries of hungry vultures. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 30th January 2006 Jonsey | Naughty Pilot Fish - From: Life at the end of time T&S, So glad you enjoyed the Cook's!! I found it the most amazing place to relax for a few weeks after the constantly moving through Central America for a few months. Did you get your Cook Island Driving? Hilarious or what?!! And what about the Pilot Fish? One minute- Gently wading through the crystal clear... The next- having your ankle nipped by these vicious little Piranha type beggers!! Caused much amusment tho!! Take care guy's... TTFN Dom x | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 29th January 2006 Vivien | WOW! - From: Life at the end of time I think this is my favorite destination so far, it looks like paradise....you guys are sooooo brown! We are having a cold snap in Bristol, with winds from Siberia! so everything is covered in Frost - dont rush back! Stu grew up in Vanuatu and Antigua so he is doubly jealous, Love Vivien xx | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 29th January 2006 Annie | - From: Life at the end of time So good to hear from you guys again! Look, you don't HAVE to put up with all that coral island and blue lagoon stuff - brave of you, I'm sure - but there's always the easy option of coming back to London and basking in sub-zero temps or just swanning around on the ever-efficient Northern Line. Just think about it, OK? The pictures are stunning as usual and there's so much in-depth info you could publish an atlas. Thank you for taking me along with you on all your adventures! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 25th January 2006 Sylvie | - From: An audience with the King of Rapa Nui Come on... bring on the next one! I have sun glasses ready by the computer....will need them from what i've heard!! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 19th January 2006 Helen and Frank | Keep it coming - From: An audience with the King of Rapa Nui As we struggle to rebuild our shed after a might y termite attack, its great to know that the world of travel still exists. Great to hear from you | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 9th January 2006 Dan | Casting a watchful eye. - From: An audience with the King of Rapa Nui I hope someone builds a giant statue of my head to stare peacfully and protectively over sheffield when I die. I guess it is pretty unlikely. Especially given the pension defecit. I kind of think about Easter Island in the sense of 'The nightmare before Christmas'. In order to get there you climb through an egg shaped door in a tree trunk in a spooky forest. The islanders being preoccupied (when not building giant stone heads) with the matter of how soon after Christmas to start running the old cadbury's cream egg adverts and other Easterial matters. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 9th January 2006 anonymous | - From: An audience with the King of Rapa Nui Hi Guys, Michael in London here. Sounds absolutely amazing and a million (let alone thousands) miles from cold, grey Chelsea this morning. Have an awesome time in Polynesia & rub a couple of pretty noses for me! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 8th January 2006 annie | - From: An audience with the King of Rapa Nui Breathtaking! I'm gobsmacked. Awesome pics and superb write-up, think I'll cancel my subscription to National Geographic... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 7th January 2006 Annie | Happy New Year!! - From: After Christmas - straight on to Easter Happy 2006! The latest blog was another great read! Sorry you had to lose the beard, Tom, count me among the opponents of the 'Getriddathatbeard!' faction, being an ole hippie an' all... But I loved the Toilet Tale - it'll be a great topic for conversation next time I have folks over for dinner. So. Easter Island next! You lucky people! Can't wait to see the photos. Glad you got to see your folks, Snoozy, as well as stay in civilisation for a while. Hope you had a great 'holiday'; now get off your arses and DO something for chrissakes. Lazy bums... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 5th January 2006 Ma & Roly | You go to all the best places... - From: After Christmas - straight on to Easter Hi U2, Just when we thought of selling the house and moving to SAmerica to climb on glaciers you go and spoil the dream! All that diarrhoea.....maybe we'll stay in Blighty after all! But S Am seems a very hard act to follow so we are wishing you happy landings on Easter Island (i.e. we hope the pilot manages to find it) and that you start the New Year as you mean to go on - with tropical sunshine, friendly locals and lots of Aloha. Lots of love from Ma & Roly xx | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 4th January 2006 emma smithy | awesome - From: Into the heart of ice Looks unreal..Liking the beard, Tom. Liking the hats Susy B! In the middle of nowhere and still turning on the style..love it.

Laura says hi and we will see you soon Love Jimmer | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3rd January 2006 Rob | Tommy Gervais - From: After Christmas - straight on to Easter Tom, I damn well hope you put those shuffling Bolivian women right with a quick crash course in "The trucker" dance steps. Or maybe even a advanced class in the "Petrol driven mono-ped!" Mind you I once dislodged a liver trying to replicate that particular Shillingford patent. Happy 2006! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3rd January 2006 Charlie | Happy New Year!!! - From: After Christmas - straight on to Easter Hey guys, Happy New Year!!!

Wondering which site you stole your photos from...and how long you sat up at night composing those gags. Glad Rob and I weren´t the only ones to do the dawn ascent to the Torres to be greeted by misty rocks at 4am in the snow. In Bs As now, Uruguay and Peru next. Happy travels... Hid 3rd December 2005 | dad A somewhat dubious award! - From: Adventures in the Uttermost Part of the Earth | Think Bellamy's beard was better - but 6 out of 10 for effort.

Cheers for info and inspiration. 28th November 2005 | Dan nerd advice - From: Torrents of pain in Torres del Paine | hello. [½ = (hold)ALT 0189 - You seem to do lots of things for something and a half hours - thought it might help. I'm wondering whether to hide my shame and delete that but I won't.] I'm beginning to suspect that you copy the first couple of paragraphs off the "wish you were here" website. Gloria Honeyford's lawyer's are no doubt preparing the suit for your return. I'm very jealous of all but the scary touching the void stuff which I am still a bit jealous of but mostly just scared by. Is vertiginous a real word? and I assume it's Tomos talking in clicks - I mean distancewise not literally talking in clicking noises like a big Tom shaped geiger counter. I won't say have a 28th November 2005 | Neil Best place you could ever visit? - From: Torrents of pain in Torres del Paine | "As far as we're concerned Torres del Paine trumps the lot - it's probably the most stunning place that either of us have ever visited" - All I can say is you've obviously never been to St James Park and watched Shearer score!

Take it easy, Rob and Laura 18th November 2005 | KingPingPong Attempt No. 2 - From: The Pisco turns sour | Dude and Dudette - I'll try not to hit the return key so quick this time - too much Denise's Heptathlon Challenge for me. Good to hear you ended up in the lap of another waitress, Tomos. Was she called Graham? Sounds like you are having a swell time and from the photos it appears that you are making good use of the extensive range of Black's apparell. You could offer to be in their catalogue, though I am guessing Gillette will not be giving you a call. Keep up the good work both. PS Have still not beaten 50 in a row and have developed RSI in the right wrist (ahem) from the game. I feel my slice and smash days are numbered. Safe travels.

Again, sensational pictures and VERY entertaining writing. I always look forward my weekly dose of Tom & Snooz after I struggling to brave the vagaries of the Northern Line and the dizzy heights of our classroom on the top floor of CH. Keep 'em coming guys! 12th November 2005 | Davey B NICE - From: Bungling Catburglers, Deranged Birds and Active Volcanoes | 7th November 2005 | Jezz and Pen - From: The Pisco turns sour | Sounds like you two may be having the best time ever!

We are facing similarly 'challenging' circumstances on our holiday in Florida. Hurricane Wilma was predicted to pass close to our place (in the end it made landfall 5 miles south) so we decamped to Disney World to bask in the safety of Minnie's bosom. On our return (fortunately not much structural damage for us!) we had to do without air conditioning for one evening and yes, had to drink warm beer. All is well now, and we look forward to further reports, as I know my wife will never agree to sleep on a bus (or anything with less than five stars). Jacquie - Ahh... Susie, don't you just miss Nick's humour. I suppose He who plants his face into bollards becomes more sarcastic by the day! 1st November 2005 | Dad You have really started something! - From: The big nothing | Congrats on well written blogs - I made the mistake of circulating your logs to some of my team and from what I can make out they are all planning trips!!!

I had seriously bad bout of something nasty when I was there, the day after I ate a guinea pig. Watch out for those pesky varmits - they honk - I left Inca trails everywhere. I believe that in all likelihood you have accidentally digested something that was residing in your facial hair - like a llama. Yours and Snoozies sites rocks, so keep up your amusing entries. So to speak. Feel better. Cal. 23rd October 2005 | David A tissue, a tissue, we all fall down.... - From: La Paz in the time of Amoeba | Hi Guys, Love the Blogging, impressed that you are keeping it up.

(had to cut and paste for spelling there.) what a happy amoeba. yet to be initiated into the cut and thrust of today's hare paced society. oh how i long for simpler times - languishing around in the warmth of a host stomach humming Boney M. 20th October 2005 | Jezz sickness - From: La Paz in the time of Amoeba | If I get sick will Susie play doctors and nurses with me too? 19th October 2005 | Kate & Stu - From: A touch of magic on the Isla del Sol | coma sava? 16th October 2005 | Kate and Stu Relaxed - From: Serere - a blueprint for the future | You two both look soooo relaxed and happy.
