Is the Trout definitely meeting us in Cairns then?

Oh my lord I have about 4 weeks to go!

Your recent reports have had me chortling like a retarded chimp during a dull year 8 lesson (doing a test).
felt like a cheer up after turning 40 last thrsday - pity you lads were not about to commiserate.
Dav: loving the look. Jake - all YOU need is a number hanging round your neck. Winter draws on...

Dave..... re bandanna. Stunning! xx

Matt Dawson won Celebrity Master Chef last week and starts Strictly Come Dancing tonight.
Your next natural hazard to 'boss' may be smoke from forest fires in Indonesia drifting across to Singapore.

INDIAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!!

Thank you Jake and for that there will be a roast dinner waiting for you on your return!!!!

See that the captions are back, but they are all Ankor Wat - wat?

It has come to my attention that it is Ian Watson and not Sally who cooks the roast dinners in the Watson Household.

I would like to offer a retraction of my comment in the last journal entry and give Ian a full apology.

Typhoon Xangsane killed 41 people in Vietnam, 200,00 people evacuated from coastal areas. Worst hit place was Da Nang, 12,000 homes destroyed, 113,000 damaged. You got out of there just in time. It was heading for Thailand, did you experience any of it in your later travels?

HI! Jake

Looks like your having a great time. Loving the pics.

Your Aunty Mary say's Hello and hope's your well and having a great time.

We all do miss you. You stay safe and take very good care. Feel free to E-Mail on [email protected] it will be great to hear from.

Lots of love

Polly, Ian and Mary.
