blog G'day Lee
You met my wife Mary while working for Medicolegal Consultants in Melbourne. After reading your blog I asked her why you didn't come around but then realised what would you want with an old guy reminiscing about his past. I was looking for another Bebbington and came across your name and got stuck reading the whole trip with green envy - the first blog I've ever read - I was really impressed it was really persceptive and consistant - think you're in the wrong profession - we not only looked alike, have the same surname, we also think alike, having visited most of the places - I loved the bit about the humidity in Fiji, I was almost there again, young and experiencing it for the first time - and FNQueensland What a wonderful part of the world and Bangkok - what a hole - the smell is like a dead dog under the pavement. But Lee, being a cockney I still envy you being back in that damp and awful place - my home town London. Really enjoyed your writing and the photos especially the city. I will bookmark your blog just in case you decide to jump on a plane again. Give me your dad's email and I'll send him our family tree as we must be related with that conection in Manchester. Bob

Auckland To the kiwi who thinks Auckland is the most friendly and beautiful city you need to go travelling more It's you who has his head up your arse. Bloody JAFFA. Just Another Fringin Fuckin Aucklander.
Fantastic Everything everyone says is true. It is such a cool place that is only found by luck or word of mouth. When you do find it you will never regret it and probably spend the rest of your life there!!! Love to everyone we saw there and hope we'll be back one day.

Classic Miami Vice New Year Hello everyone, as you can see by the photo we are major fans of everything 80's, and we actually thought the small man with the red jacket was Jimmy Krankie.....sadly he wasn't and our New Year was ruined.

I came to the surprisingly easy decision (whilst watching neighbours on TV actually) to trade in my soul destroying job, move out of my house & pack up my things & leave Londons grey skies, rain soaked crowded streets, and the 9-5 repetitious routine of working 'life' for an unspecified number of years of dodging work erm i mean wandering around the world looking for something different/better? a new perspective and to see what living 'life' was like on the other side of the world. I have this webpage to paste photos on and to prevent people hating me (even more) for jamming their email accoun... full info
