Hey guys,

Sounds like your having fun! Annie I'm going to post pics of mum's new kitchen on bebo.com so you should be able to log on and look at my pics.
Keep having fun!! I'll see yous guys when you get to aus!!!

Luv Claire

Finally got the chance to read this gastronomic blog and now trying to work out how to make a cheese fondue filled pancake. Can we have some recipes please?

Also, how would "Baltica" lager fare in the Prestigious Lager World Cup (Battersea 2006) Dave? I think a rating for each lager tasted is in order.

You sound like you're having a great time, looking forward to hearing more. Finally, as the weekend's upon us I wonder whether there'll be a report from one of these shortly:

Sep 16, 2006 Premier League Torpedo Moscow v Rostov
Sep 17, 2006 Premier League Lokomotiv Moscow v Spartak Moscow (local derby!)
Sep 17, 2006 Premier League Dinamo Moscow v Amkar

PS Glos got promoted in the Pro40, which I'm sure you're really happy to hear Dave. We were helped to a tremendous victory at the Oval on Tuesday night by a great innings by a Victorian, Ian Harvey, so there is a bit of relevance (mind you, he wants a British passport...)

You guys are a hoot!
Just wanted to pass on my only CLEAN Russian phrase...
DOB-RAY OOT-TRA (roll the rrrrrrr's) means good morning!
The Russian team only teaches us the bad words! Look out for the Russian maffia!

Nice one Dave. I wasn't surprised to see you started off by complaining at paying more than the locals to enter somewhere and then moved on to food. It's like you were standing in front of me.
Keep up the good reporting and have fun.
Avoid Dostoevskys Crime And Punishment Cafe, and keep making Notes From The Undergroud.
Ahhhhh one pun after another.

When you get back, explain to Ian that the World is now round so you can go both ways :)

All best!

Hi Dave and Annie.Enjoyed reading your witty blog,keep it up. Good luck on your travels. Love from Mum, Dad and Grandma UK

Great to read about your adventures so far - can't believe Annie didn't let you pack your Rovers programmes (o:

Just one thing though - looking at the red spot on the map, are you not going slightly the wrong way for Oz?

Hope you have a wonderful time on your epic journey. We will be keenly following your progress and will no doubt see you at this end of the trip.

Enjoy.

Hi there. Hope you have a wonderful trip. Looking to following on this site. Will pass it on to all our friends so they cxan enjoy your travels. Will be wonderful to see you in December.
Love for now Mum & Dad

Hi Dave and Anne Marie,

I don't suppose you'll have much of a chance to reply, but wherever you're going, have a fantastic time, sounds like a big trip!

I'll keep a close eye on your blog in the meantime, I don't suupose Australia's on the menu is it for roundabout December!!!! Just don't forget your Barmy Army hat.

We're in the throws of wedding arrangments now, as I'm sure you'll understand. 5 weeks to go and I've been told it's all under control so we'll see.

Take care and have fun.

Cheers,

Alex.
