muy bien!
really enjoyed reading this update David - and it was moving to imagine the trials and tribs of getting to M.Picchu...great anecdotes about the locals, fellow travellers and all those women ´internet contacts´ you keep mentioning. Makes my trip to spain seem positively tame...

Dave, Glad you enjoyed Peru, went there last November and keen to go back as I never went to Nazca or the Colca Canyon. Well done on completing the Inca Trail! I hate blisters but luckily never got any when I did it - just a bad dose of the runs...

Nice one bruv. Glad you managed to do Machu Picchu. That 2nd day is a bugger isn't it! You look like you've lost some weight too! All well here. Ruby is great and Arsenal still top of the league. Going to see Led Zeppelin on Monday so life is good. Catch up soon, Jamie
