Hello!!! Hey Shona!
I'm looking after JB this week (for my sins!!) and noticed the update email sent to his inbox so took a sneaky peek! Sounds like you're having a wonderful time, I'm so pleased for you! Nothing new to report here - well nothing as exciting as your news anyway!
Would you mind adding me to your distribution list - that way I'll receive all your updates. Look forward to seeing your photos too!!
Take care.

Greetings from Morocco Hi, great idea re Red Letter days!!!
Morocco trip is just as manic so the blog is behind...again! Still cannae get used to these arabic keyboards, taking long enough to catch up with emails never mind updating the blog.
On an enforced detox at the mo due to Ramadan...impossible to get alcohol, aaaaarrrggghhh, desperate for a nice glass of vino.
Speak soon.
I've been dying to see... ...how you would describe the birthday hammam.
Exfoliated to within an inch of your life, while repeatedly serenaded with 'happy birthday to you'; you were such a good sport about it, but surely one of the most surreal experiences of the first leg of your adventures?
Business idea: you know how popular those Red Letter Days are? How about hammam experiences 'alternative' for the day you'll never forget? Do you think the Dragon's would go for it???

Gospel according to Darling Great pictures mate!!! It was good hearing from you the other day. You walked into Syria!!! This sounds like a chapter in one of th gospels!!!
Juice If you are still there, somewhere along the high street (near the church with the mosiac map on the floor) is a kebab shop that sells the world's best fruit smoothies..... There'sa challenge for you to find it!
LOL What you doing having another birthday? Is one in July no enough? Been laughing out loud since I read about your massage.. no quite Roxburghe then? hehe xx
Eww! I'd forgotten about the goose-fat...I had thought it was going to be some kind of fish because of the 'wet' look!
the though of it has quite put me off my tea....
Phantom author Just in case any of you are wondering how Shona was able to update her blog without a pc, well, I have to admit to being her phantom author. So if it doesn't make sense, blame me and not her.
It was great to see you this morning. Hope you have a fabulous adventure and looking forward to reading each blog.
Love, Gel
1.5 days to go! Thinking of you as you approach your big day....especially with all this rain we are getting...you lucky devil!!! Have the time of your life and take care. Lots of love, Helen
