Hi from Oz
Hi John, great to see your new blog! I imagine you are "thawing out" in Cambodia by now! I am also enjoying being in warmer climes for the harshest winter in China in over 50years or more! Head back next week- not looking forward to the cold! Hope to be back on track with my own blog soon- haven't had a suitable internet connection.
