Walking around Ulaanbaatar ...
Walking around Ulaanbaatar last year the first thing I noticed was that every other building was a bank. Maybe they've been hit by the Credit Crunch and they've all turned into bars to drown their financial sorrows.

Commissioned photos
A good photographer will go through any hardships for that special commissioned shot... and your dedication to the cause was much appreciated. You may submit your application for the official post on my next trip.

Soaked luggage.
Last year in Mongolia my main luggage ended up in a river whilst I was crossing it on horseback. It included all my clothes, sleeping bag and video camera (along with the solar eclipse footage). So I understand what you went through in trying to dry everything out.

"Commissioned" photos in Xidi.
This is a place I won't forget. Sheltering under an umbrella that leaked, I waded bare foot through the flooded narrow streets with my trainers tied together and draped over my shoulder. I was beginning to wonder why we had come to this place when you called out to me to take those "commissioned" photos. So I'm glad to have been useful. I shall email them in due course. So I hope you like them.

Cycling.
The next time you're in London, you, me and Alex will have to get together and go for a bike ride around Richmond Park. It won't be as exotic as cycling Xian City walls but Richond Park is quite nice anyway.

i'm not sure...
- will have to do further research on souls. Glad test match has dispelled some rainy gloom. Forecast here is rain for tomorrow's eclipse - perhaps you could keep it in UK for just a day longer? thanks for all your little comments - lovely to receive them. Hope things ok with you x

You look very fierce in your armour My daughter would love to have that sword in her hands. I think that I am sad to hear that my soul will shrink after I am dead. Is their any scientific confirmation of this?

Looking forward to your re-appearance
Hope you are enjoying the delights of outer Mongolia and as ever looking out for photos. You didn't say if the beer was good in the brew pub but as you didn't say otherwise I guess it was drinkable. Cheers David
