Aww just read your blog and all the memories came flooding back...hmm! You forgot to write about the mullet man however. I also have photos of us pointing at/laughing at/dancing at some guy in the techno place - any ideas?!
The Last Blog? I am assuming that this will be the last blog before your return home. It seems to have been an epic trip and the memories (those not obscured by alcohol) hopefully will keep you 'warm' through the winter of renewed studying and work. At least I feel you have used the summer 'profitably' and I am sure that you also feel that it has been a wonderful journey and collection of experiences. It seems a long time since Oaxaca - probably even longer for you.... See you soon!
No comment needed....! It sounds quite an experience. It also sounds as if they think they are in "Coyote Ugly" - did they hose you down if you asked for water! The Mexican party sounds great and I admire your stamina. I also hope your flat is going to be big enough to accommodate all your new friends!! Did you walk into any strange people's gardens? (In-joke that Henry A might understand)
"War and Peace" Well not quite, but great to have such a long report, and I quite understand why you did not want to do this on Cuban internet - I suspect it might have made it smoke as much as their planes (perhaps they run those on cigar tobacco as well). At least you have a couple of weeks of rest and relaxation in relative civilisation before reality kicks in and you have to come home. Enjoy the diving and make the best of it - I would be lying if I did not admit to still being jealous.... (which is why I have to remind you that home beckons). Also we do miss you!
All Alone? I think not.... Whilst you might be without the restraining (?) and comforting hand of Henry A on your shoulder, you do not appear to be very much on your own!!! (but it is good to know that you are missing him - of course). As for the Swedish Girls, you look a bit apprehensive - perhaps you felt outnumbered without your 'wing-man' or perhaps you were already anticipating the barracking you would get from certain parties when you get home. What we really want to hear about is the "...." (not that WE probably ever will), if you can remember it.....! I like the thought that on one occasion you were "very, very, very drunk" in contrast to all the other occasions when you were obviously only slightly tipsy?! Hope Cuba is fab. Love from us all.
great to see that you can cope without your old mate, who has spent 2 weeks with a pin striped suit on-he can tell you the rest ! he has been car parking all weekend in order to earn a crust and this weekend we are all up to the north norfolk coast for more fun. ?when are you hope and back to reality/
thanks for looking after the son and heir and enfoy the resat of the trip
love fuff
hi hace hope that you are coping on your own and that you are not missing your old mate. it is great to have him home although i cannot quite get used to hime going off to the office in a pinstriped suit ..........
the travel blog is just the best idea _+ much better that p.c s
look forwasrd to hearing the next one
much love the aliens
Jail and bail Hello! So what about the jail? Curious now, but bet I'll hear all about it when you get home, if you feel I can take it. Hi,hi...Haven't gotten any mail from you lately Henry (you know which one ; )) so I'm still not sure when you'll be getting back on Sunday, but have a great time these last few days! Can't wait to speak to you! Love to you both xxx

Jumping Rocks, Jellyfish and Gaols Much relieved to hear that Henry M is not lying smashed on the rocks below, and sorry that Henry A had an encounter with jellyfish (interesting that he didn't notice) and hoping that the gaol remains only a joke....! A noticable amount of oversleeping creeping in - obviously the hard life is getting to you both. Glad that you have teamed up with some others, perhaps temporarily, it's a small world. I suspect the culture has now been done and the sea beckons, far from any internet cafes..... xxx
Hello Henrys Hello how are things going? this is a real gimpy site for the real travelers of this world. anyway it seems like you are having fun although you apper to be getting quite involved in the rioting. Henry A look after Henry M he is only frail and is not good at fighting if he does start to get carried away fill him up with that so readly avalible valium. anyway if you have done anything not cultral that might keep me entertained send us a quick email you should have my address. ps emails will not be relayed to your direct familly. Bug x
comment title Word. I didnt realise you could leave comments. All sounds pretty darn nice out there, very jealous, but im chillin' too, just on pebbles not sand. Shame about all the usual sad and depressing aspects of being a tourist (re- the last post on "eco" tourism). I just wrote loads about me (and cut it), how inappropriate. Check ya myspcae for that ish.
Hope the sick didnt get in any sunburn.
Peace and love.

You 2 sound as if you are having the holiday of a life time - perhaps a bit too much drinking, but I am sure that only comes out in the blog rather than being for real. I am sorry that I have not been in touch before, but the last few weeks (months) has been taken up planning the acquistion of another business. This we completed last Friday - HA will know of it - John Marsh - so we now have 2 more offices in Holt and Sheringham. All very exciting, as long as it works out OK! Brown & Co in Holt is something I have been banging on about for years and it has finally happened. Off fishing tomorrow and of course all will miss you. The river and lodges are for sale for £2.35m with final offers next Tuesday. What this will mean to our "holiday spot" of 34 years I do not know, but maybe whoever buys it will continue to let it to us. I wait to hear, but recognise it could be the last year - hopefully we can beat last year's record of 22 salmon in the week. I have just bought a load of flies in Gallyons so I hope they bring me some luck! Please plan your return journey to avoid too much jet lag so that you are wide awake for work on 17th with Birketts - they are looking forward to seeing you.
Love from all Dad
I have written twice before have not got the hang of this although i am a whizz on the comp. anyway the place looks amzing i am surprised not crowded anyway darling see u soon lol auntie
The Deep Blue Sea I can understand why the depression over the World Cup didn't last long. If only we were all so lucky to have such consolations. Glad the trousers got washed - what about the T-Shirt....
If it is on its own, does it flip or flop? No doubt you are having plenty of time to ponder such philosophical questions - you probably have discovered the 'meaning of life' but will have forgotten it in the morning (and have to go and work it all out again the next night)! As you can gather, still jealous. Love from us all.
Chilli sauce cant imagine henry's attempts to keep up with the locals are worth anything being the hardcore hero that he is with hot food!!
looks well sweet - hope you're both all good.

Long time, no see Finally we get more updates! Have been wondering how you guys were getting on, but I see there's no need to worry. Ruins and beaches look amazing I must say. Hope the underwater shots come out as well. That'd be nice to see. Election hot topic with the students at the moment? Enjoy life and let everyone know what we should be jealous of. Keep snapping those sights. Missing you back home... Lol xxx

darling henry one and henry 2 we are as ytou know all in glorious norfolk and wish you were here. ha ha ha. still misbehaving like mad, just like the whole family. the e mails you have sent are really marvellous and the photos are great and i so enjoyed reading your remarks. it appears you are having a wonderful experience and i am extremely envious but a bit too old for all this rambling of yours. i am still at white lodge but half looking for another abode but where? this is the first thing that i have ever sent so ther world should rock but i do think it is all mad and i would hate to do it all the time. I REALLY DO FEEL THE WORLD HAS BECOME ALMOST TOO SMALL AND WE HAVE NO PRIVACY OR QUIET IN OUR LIVES AT ALL AND I THINK WE ALL NEED SPACE.At Wimbledon for instance phones were vibrating all the times, at weddings, in church even on holiday as you now are, we are totally up to date with what you are doing and this is not a crtiscim of you at all but i really do feel a great sadness that there is no expectation left because we are living it with you photos and all so no great fun, of course than to hold you and know that you are safe on your return. these are just the thoughtds of a very aged grumpy old lady who wishes the world would become alittle less advanced. darling one I LOVE YOULOTS AND REALLY look forward to your safe return. LOVE and hugs Granny Pauline.
Amazing! I did it all wrong the first time! Think I sent an e-mail somewhere that might pop up with one of you! Sounds like it's an amazing time you're having guys. Brilliant that you are posting photos so we can see, and be jealous of, all the nice places you go to. I wouldn't wish anyone a nicer time than you guys, as you both deserve a break before autumn I'm sure! Take care, keep posting photos, and stay clear of the chilli! Hi, hi : ) Have a great time most of all ( like I have to tell you)! Miss you Henry...Lol
Just Jealous... Loved the photos, and keep on thinking about that view from your room - cool or what! Can't think what has dragged you away but I gather their are waterfalls in the next place, so perhaps that it is the attraction. Tempted to come and join you - we can do France another year - but I don't suppose you would thank us! Keep up the reports (please!) Love from us all xxx
reply to last blog hi ya'all. it all looks amazing and am dead jealous as the weather hre is crap.brown and co. cricket match tonight and the norfolk show tomorrow-you know all the grown up stuff that one day you will do !! had a fab w/e in yorks. oarty ended about 3am and fant was still in the pub at 5am !! 2 peoplw decided to ahve a swim in their d.j's............ben spent the w/e here but we had dinner together on thurs night
look forward to an entry from henry a ???
thinking of you all the time
big hugs mummy fuff
greetings Afternoon Mason, you great jammy bastard.
Just thought i'd say that old habits seem to die hard: even in a travel blog you put in a Harvard-esque reference. I'll be expecting footnotes next time. Still, you have to keep a first-class brain limber.
Keep on trucking.
