Ben and Cerri off on their adventure around the world We start our journey on the 17th May 2010 and are due to return to the UK on the 15th May 2011. We have both had enough with the hussle and bussle of working life and have decided to re-live our younger days by becoming travellers . . . some say we're having a mid twenties crisis! The main reason we are flying the coop is that we are currently waiting on our visa application for Australian Residency to come through, so instead of waiting in the UK in the lovely Welsh weather we decided we wanted to see a bit of the world before we set... full info

Didn't know you had it in you Ben, but enjoying your compositions. Glad to see your haircuts are a little like mine in that you have to tell people you've actually had a haircut for them to notice. And if you do travel halfway round the globe in summertime, you're going to end up with winter - kinda on a par with Aviemore last week. Fottball season starts tomorrow and already depressed as we're out one competition stright away. Good game against the Arse in Emirates Cup but gave you too much of a start. Keep them coming and take care.
