Tami in Tampa Florida Bev... Spoke to Linda today and she sent me your blog. So much to say..How are you?? What an incredible thing you are doing!!! You really are amazing or should I say more amazing. I thought you were amazing the first time I met you and you continue to amaze me. Your husband is something else, he is a keeper. To have a man support you like this is hard to find. I wish you the best and I will follow your progress on your blog. Be strong and have fun. XX Tami

Linda in Barcelona Hi Just took a break to look at your pictures. All looks very exciting but I know it's hard work. I'm very proud of you, what you are doing takes guts. I have just managed to get up today after a bout of very bad flu. I feel like I have been hit by a 10 ton truck! However, I think that's probably preferable to some of the things you have to put up with! I will keep in touch. Love, Linda xx

Gill & Douglas Just been looking through your pics - what a great record to have! Can't believe it's been a month and counting. We are thinking about you lots and hope you're managing to hold out now you're away from friends and colleagues. We hear it's very tough, but stick in there...and remember to keep that insect repellent handy! It's very cold here today - almost back to Winter - and particularly disappointing after last weekend which gave us a taste of summer. You'll be amazed to hear that Douglas is busy constructing raised beds in the garden, and has even been out and bought veggie seeds! Off to get the seed pots today, and seed potatoes 'chitting' away as we write! Not bad for somebody who doesn't eat veg!!! Anyway, look after yourself and will be in touch again soon. Love, Gill & Douglas PS Daisy sends lots of love and licks!

Clare Off to Norway tomorrow with our skis- pick up our boat somewhere north of the Arctic Circle....bit of a different scene to Sri Lanka! You're doing great Honey. Take care. Clare xx

phil Great pictures but why were you not wearing your crash helmet? We want you to come back in one piece. We had cold rain today. So what's new? phil and marnie
