			<![CDATA[In order to delay James' meeting with the reality of being a civilian, we have decided to go travelling for a few months.On 02 November we jump on a plane bound for Rio and plan to visit Brazil, Ecuador, The Galapagos, Argentina, Chile, New Zealand, Australia and Honk Kong, returning to UK in about June/July 09 (unless everyone seems to be unemployed, fuel prices are sky high and a loaf of bread requires a mortgage (which cannot be secured for love nor money), in which case we will probably just carry on monging on a beach).We thought that a blog would help keep us in touch with our friends.
