P.S. Agree with Matty about the burnage but not sure what he's doing posting messages during work's time tee hee. Also, Emma turned 30 last week - think she's been trying to keep it quiet so I thought I'd share it with everyone!

Hey guys! At first I didn't believe that you'd eaten dog but now that you're trying to deny it I'm not so sure. Remember, a dog is for life, not just for Christmas dinner!! Am sold on visiting Laos now that I've seen your photos - keep 'em coming! Love Di xx

Cat - Would the embarrasing pink burnage have anything to do with the lack of photos?? Ha ha Come on Kush get the camera out.We need something to melt the snow! Matt

Ok, hands up, actually no post a message those of u that believed the dog meat malark, seems like some of u did!

Hey ho Just a quicky to admit that it has finally happened ... embarrassing burnage has occured! Am keeping a strict eye on Kushal to make sure no sneaky photo's are being taken! Hoping this extremely fetching bright pink will soon be turning brown! ... Think i need to be in England playing in the snow. Have fun x

Hello Guys, Thank you for posting some more photos; brilliant ones again! It is snowing here (!) but we are still pretty envious of where you guys are right now :) We will see you both in a month (ish), so don't forget to let us know if you need any essentials bits and pieces brought over. We have looked into bringing some Cheddar Cheese but it is one of the banned items allowed in luggage, ah well! Keeping us updated, and if at all possible, please avoid the dog meat - just think of poor Scruff! Love Ming + Laura x

Hi you two! Great photos the tubing reminded me of the lazy river at Disney, minus the beer!...........sad or what!! I want to do the real thing. Do they have any oldies out there backpacking ?!! I hope you have NOT eaten dog however Bill and I had snake, crocodile and toad when we were in Bangkok last year .....absolutely delicious (not!) but it was part of a menu and we couldn't get out of it. Could I have 4 pairs of shoes and a couple of suits? I'll ring the other aunties and get their orders! Keep having fun and keep well. Love E xx

Morning! Just thought that I would drop you a quick line to say howdy! Checked out the pics this morning! More amazin sights I see....The tubin looks great fun - Especially with the addition of the cheap beer! I'm really envious of you both! Keep safe! Keep the updates coming!

Yer loads of it, its really good, what do u think my chances of finding a vendor in England are?

Sorry everyone but I'm dying to know, have you eaten Thit Cay (dog meat) yet???!!!

Hello Catty and Kush! We went out last night in oxford and repeated your leaving party. Copa then Oceans and Collins! We also meet Leeboy at the taxi rank and went back to his new house. Its really nice! What have you guys been up to? Not long til ming comes out to see you! Hope your both good. xx

Hi guys, Love the latest photos........Kush looks particularly fetching in his eye shades and you are starting to look very like your mum in some of the pictures Cat!!! Can I have a hat like yours??? Life very boring here. Its wet and very windy. I have joined the gym and am going to be sylph-like by the time we have our get together in Salisbury in March!! Hope you are recovered from all your tummy troubles and are ready to try the exotic specialities in Vietnam. Keep your journal entries coming! Love fav auntie xx
