Hello Vernon. Did you remember to turn the gas off?

Great to hear about you travels, Alex. Keep it up and you'll probably end up with the makings of a book in there somewhere (and possible a stake in the future of biodegradable technology by the looks of things!). Have fun and stay safe and hopefully see you around in the not too distant future. Best Wishes from Canada. ST

you absolute b****** going to India for the first time. On the other hand you will almost certainly never leave the airport if you continue meeting people all the time.

To finish first, first you've got to finish.

Hey Alex

Just read the blog - very entertaining. It's literally exactly how I imagine you travelling - Essentially "and then I met someone and we spoke for a long time, and then I met someone else and we spoke for a long time." It sounds great and I feel distinctly jealous.

We'll have to do some guitar hero-ing when you're back! Apparently somehwere there is a whole metallica cd with loads of their songs to play...

Alex,

Am having laugh withdrawal symptoms conbined with travel withdrawal symptoms. What shall we do about all this? Either you come back for a couple of days (and then go back to where you came from) or I come and join you!!! Pick one!

Miss your chat

That's gonna be the rebrand when you return a changed man.

Maybe not.

Great pics and enjoyed the blog.

Let me know when u hit India and I'll see if i can hook u up with some interesting folks.

Sorry. Manly. I meant: manly. I'm finding you to be particularly manly.

I'm finding you to be particularly hairy.

THis blog stinks.

As does its author

I am so jealous of your dive plans I want to kill you. Please go to perhentians - my fav place ever but that was 2004... think its still pretty amazing. What a useful message! Love from glorious London xx

Great news! We miss you - our relationship has been the worse without you and we've completely run out of things to talk about. Now that we have your blog things are looking up.
Don't go back to the Gillis - do something new. Go back to Kalimantan but other areas or perhaps another island - Sumatra or Java.
And then of course there is Balikpapan. Or Rantepao - go send August our love.
Enjoy! xx
