We spent a year and a half travelling in 2006/2007 and were back in the UK for 6 months, but it is shit so we are going back to South East Asia for another 6 months before returning on a more permanent basis.

Top draw!
I read this entry and it made me laugh so much. Joe, you've found your next vocation in life. You gotta publish this sh*t man! Oh I miss you soooo. Come home now for a weekend and then fly back? Oh go on, go on, go on, go on! I'll cook you a big roast dinner with all the trimmings and you can tell loadsa stories and Joe you can talk all through good programmes on telly and I won't tell you to shut up. And Mon, you can be poorly and I won't say you have 'health anxiety' and I will wait on you hand and foot. And we can all have lots of hugs and kisses. And I won't cry or get upset or try and put you off going back travelling. And you can sleep in your old bed (before it is replaced by a new cot!) And it will be great! Oh go on! I can't wait til September :-( Love yoooooou xxxx
