Not to be sneezed at
Sorry you're sick man. Good call hitting up a doc right away though. Maybe a bad call climbing a mountain immediately... But yeah it really is "good old Amoxycillin" right! Hope your December picks up from here.

on tge way to bankok with you
Hi Moth 'The Grind' is a bit like being on drugs (not that I'd know really). I keep on turning up in the expectation of a high, but very soon realise that I'm on a bad trip. (Not bankok) Enjoy the freedom and don't feel to bad about the planet. It will kick us of when it's had enough, just like the dinosaurs :-)

ah, what a wonderful life...
Have a super time in NZ, and keep writing whenever you can, mainly when you feel like it or have the need to entertain us with stories of sheep and mountains. Wish I could escape for a month, but... it's not for all. Good to see you at the weekend, and glad to know you are free from work obligations for the next few weeks. Anyway, just to send you well wishes of a good trip and a whole new range of exciting adventures. Don't get too close to the sheep as they take a keen interest in solo male travelers. Ahh... if you are stopping in Bangkok, don't be fooled by the "ping-pong" shows... they are well outdated, they have evolved and now it's "tennis" shows! Ciao amigo, LR.

Who kept up with whom
Sounds like a gruelling pace, and something you wrote with your job in mind. Are you sure it was a holiday? Trial of endurance if you ask me! Now was it you keeping up with Fiona or Fiona keeping up with you? I think you might have been the one who was slightly on the drag there Tak. I hope that there wasn't so much 'living life' that you forgot to take pictures! Get a thicker thermarest mat with a bed attached to it :-) Enjoy the last days of your holiday, and start looking for a date in your diary for Abingdon Cottage.

WOW
Fantastic. Do I assume correctly the weather has been good to you? I hope the Patagonian wind blew you inside out, as no trip to Torres del Paine is complete without it. Hope your pics are stunning and you will share them in due course.

Update
Glad to hear all is well. Seems like a lot of travel of the less pleasant kind for a smaller ratio of mountain porn. Best go for longer next time eh?

Dakota?
Was the last part of your journey by Dakota (DC3). If so I want some :-) Did you meet up with Fiona. I saw it on the plan but you didn't mention whether it happened? Good bus? Manic driver? overtaking on blind bends? Didn't anything happen on the bus ride. Cow in the road. People in the road; on top of the bus maybe :-)

Should have travelled business class
That's the reason you feel that you're at the end of the world. Cattle class makes you feel .... like cattle :-)

It's not for your pleasure
You don't go on these jamborees for your own good you know. It's for the other wasteral groupies who want pictures, pictures, pictures and live through your adventures. Now stop whingeing and get on with it :-)

Torres del Paine
I am blogging Patagonia at the moment with unique adventures as we went in and out of Argentina and Chile in a 4WD. Gotta say Torres del Paine is the most beautiful place on Earth. if you have fine weather you will agree with me. Enjoy.

No chance. It's as cold as an eskimo's pimple. Pop in for a warm up when passing.

Lard up the ankle
You've got two ankles, so either dispense with one or plaster a load of lard or bear grease on the duff one:-) We should soon be back to the bee saga then ;-)

Cunning ankle
Seems that the ankle became crook at just the right time, forcing a convenient pit stop with a tinny and t.v.

Well honed experience
A contemporary Peter Hillary (1954) so DB must be just about trained in for the task in hand.

You're not wrong - DB is semi-retired now but can still out-climb me on any hill I fear :)

The wanderer is changing base. A desire is being realised. The UK will no longer be the wanderer's base. From January 2019, Te Wai Pounamu in Aoteroa becomes the wanderer's home base. A wee city named Ōtautahi in a place more recently named Canterbury will be home. (also known as Christchurch, Canterbury, South Island, New Zealand)... full info
