What a great sunset picture. The light look tremendous
Take care and keep in touch guys
18 March 2006 Mum (Futcher) sent me the blog details and I've just had a browse. David and I took two trips to India in the 90s - which was when his love affair with India started - and your blog brought all the memories flooding back. Have a brilliant trip. I'll keep dipping in and out of your blog to see how you're getting on. Best wishes Jenny
Bloody heck I want to be there Mate - I cannot believe that you are living my life, so jealous and looks like you are having wicked time! Am off to see Chloe and Michelle next week, shall update you after this. Keep enjoying! Ax
Sounds great! & familiar! Keep the blogs coming, you seem to have done all the good stuff in SE Asia in the same order as me. You even went to Baan Thai cooking school in Chiang Mai!!!
Have fun!

Fantastic blog Great blog, got your parents here for a curry as they miss it. See you in Cape Town ( John we have your boots for Kilamanjaro!!!) We fly out Monday. Come and sail in Simon's Town.
It was really like this Wow, what a holiday. Too many memories...... crowds at the station, traffic which overtook where there was no space, colours so bright, such friendly, helpful people and so many spiritual experiences. Thanks Gilly and John. Where next?
Rubbish! That looks really rubbish. And what happened to the nice scenery? Just looks like Scotland to me. I'm glad I'm at work. Really. And that baby looks like its made of plastic as well!
Lots of love from the grumpy old scots git!
HAP-PY NEW YEAR!!! Aaarrhgghghhg. I want to come out and join you. Its my first day back in the office after a month and I haven't a clue where to start.
Happy chrimbo and happy 2006 to you both. You're having such a fabulous time - I love your diary.
