We do read it
Thanks for your travel blogs. Your Dad Emma sends them on to us I think. It is put on the notice board and people read it at their leisure. It sounds as if you're having a great time of it all. School's going well. I don't know if Janine has left for England yet, she's still waiting on her Visa last I heard, but her replacement Toni is fitting in well. No other changes at the moment - I think we have had enough for a while. Take care Margaret

I also read it..
I think that your travel blog is bloody great! And you got me on the lazy bit for leaving comments.. I hope to catch you on MSN sometime for a yarn - that is when Windows Vista isn't being a bitch (just upgraded and damn it's a pain in the ass) Just finished doing stocktake at the warehouse here myself - done about 70-80 hours in last 6 days, absolutely shagged! Anyway keep up the updates and the great photo's!

Great to share your journey. You certainly seem to have done your homework well and know exactly what you want to see and do. I didn't realise how vast your music knowledge was. Do you realise that someone tags along behind on your journeys, stopping at the towns along the way too, via google earth, so these stay at homes can feel a wee bit involved. Connor gets to see the bears you hunt out Emma. Keep it up, and keep having fun. Of course Gareth you know on your return you will be expected to speak with many sentences, as we know you have a good command of language!
