| 29th August 2008 Brian & Sandra | Re Hikerswool - From: Ho Ho Ho christmas eve in new zealand We enjoyed reading about your trip.Sounds like you had a great time. As the makers of Hikerswool, could we just suggest that HikersWool works as a preventative and therefore should be put against one's feet before starting out. We're sorry that perhaps this wasn't explained to you when you hired the boots . You should have been given a "directions for use" leaflet. We apologise for that omission. Please do have a glance at our website - Hikerswool.co.nz - . From you photos you look like fun people. All the best. Brian & Sandra |

| 24th March 2008 Rebecca Speirs | Hi from Welly! - From: Final hours in Buenos Aires Hi there, I hope you both had a good journey back and arrived safely. You've sure had some fantastic experiences since we saw you back at New Year in Welly. Since then we've seen a whole lot more of the North Island and a little bit more of the South - already thinking about where to go next! I'm sure it's going to be great to look back on all those photos - I can't imagine how many you'd have from so many months of travelling! Good luck with your new job Paul and all the best to you both, Cheers Becs and Neil |
| 21st March 2008 Brian & Mim | Fantastic Epic - From: Bye to Bariloche and jetting to Iguazu Really enjoyed the excellent story telling of your blog and the photographs were just great. All well worth waiting for . Never needed to check as it pops up in our e-mail when your latest is posted ( Technologys great - everyone should use it). Glad ye did not spend too much time indoors over blogging when it was all happening outside. My lever arch file of your blogs is nearly full now. I suppose a travel book is not out of the question when ye return as I guess you've saved some for that also - cant be giving everything away. |

| 15th January 2008 Brian Daddio | - From: West coasting - Wines, Treks and Swingbridges!! Could not help zooming in on Abel Tasman Track Foto and concerned re possibility of developing man boobs. There may be extra hormones from associating with sheep and Paul should steer clear (as in go for hugging cattle instead, or even chickens) |
| 15th January 2008 Simon | nice bikes! - From: West coasting - Wines, Treks and Swingbridges!! Will ye bring us home some wine? And some sun? Ah the wine region looks like paradise. Looks a bit like rathmines road on a saturday though, with all the wobbly riders. Will there be any town unvisited at the end of all this?? |
| 13th January 2008 Lisa | Hello! - From: West coasting - Wines, Treks and Swingbridges!! Hello! Happy New Year to you both! Don't know how ye cycled during all that wine tasting. I'd be lethal on a bike after wine. :-D. However there didn't seem to be too much traffic on the roads! ;-) Glad you enjoyed 'Once'. Declan & I thought it was brill. Best film I saw in 2007, I even bought the soundtrack! Now as for that sheep teddy, Elaine you need to nip that in the bud, PRONTO!!!!! Take care! |
| 13th January 2008 Jack | Inebriated Cycling? - From: West coasting - Wines, Treks and Swingbridges!! Nice to see NZ requires cycling helmets. But what about all those tanked-up cyclists wobbling around the wine district?? |

| 15th December 2007 Michael | Climate change due to 2Litre car - From: New Zealand comes early! Ok you spell out 'Climate SOS' and then you go and buy a 2Litre petrol car with 1990's engine emissions. I hope the greenie's spelling out ' Climate SOS' don't read your blog because they will hunt you down. |
| 15th December 2007 Jack | mooowahaha? - From: New Zealand comes early! Just thinking - maybe it's the weight of all that hair Paul had as a teenager that loosened the roots or maybe it's just that some people become follicly challenged as they move towards middle age! Great blog as usual, Elaine. Excuse my ignorance of the lingo but what is a mooowahaha and zorbing? |
| 4th December 2007 Mark | surfing? who needs NZ - From: Whizzing through Cambodia http://www.ireland.com/newspaper/frontpage/2007/1203/index.html and you'll probably be expecting us to buy the car when we get in too... |
| 1st December 2007 Jack | New Zealand - From: Whizzing through Cambodia Know someone who bought a cheap camper van in N.Z. and sold it when they left. Worked out well. Can find out more if you like. |
| 29th November 2007 yvonne | where to go next? - From: Whizzing through Cambodia suggestion.. you could fly here for christmas |
| 28th November 2007 paulandelaine | wont be long!!!! - From: Mui Ne to Saigon We're getting to it! think by tmrw we MAY have a full 'cambodia in a nutshell' composed... no mean feat i tells ya!!! Back in bangkok, and Paul has a cold so i've been given 5 minutes leave from nursemaid duties to check mail :p |
| 27th November 2007 Colm | New Blog - From: Mui Ne to Saigon C'mon lads, its been 10 days since last blog. are you after forgetting about us? |
| 25th November 2007 Itch E Ring | If Carlsberg Made Blogs - From: Mui Ne to Saigon is this the one that paul wrote that im supposed to say is the best one ever? this is this the best blog ever. Totally. |
| 17th November 2007 Mark | Paul's Blog - From: Mui Ne to Saigon you could just assume Paul that the logging system wasn't working around the time you posted the blog. Denial is a great attribute.... As for NZ flight changes, we're going to stick with the schedule so far, there's little time available to us to make drastic changes, so guess we may be hanging out in Christchurch for a few days! |
| 17th November 2007 suzanne walsh | ditto! - From: Mui Ne to Saigon ditto that! i think i would only be able to get about 20 foot into it. unless a US soldier was on my ass that is.. |
| 16th November 2007 Jack | Tunnels - From: Mui Ne to Saigon If I ever go to Vietnam there is absolutely NO WAY I'm going into one of those tunnels. I'm suffering from claustrophobia just looking at the photos!! Just shows what can be achieved by determined low-tech locals against a "superpower". |
| 14th November 2007 Lisa Hutchings | - From: Hue, Hoi An, Nha trang and Mui Ne in a nutshell! Hey there! Photos are great. Love the one with Elaine looking pint-sized on the sand dunes. Very clever! Paul you're looking very dapper in your suit. ;-) |
| 8th November 2007 paulandelaine | The suit - From: Hue, Hoi An, Nha trang and Mui Ne in a nutshell! Sure the suit is solely for your wedding don't ya know! 12 re-fittings to make sure Il be presentable. I aint got a job not a lot of money, some may even say I have bum like tendencies but that is no excuse to be letting ur self go :p |
