Look at my dad getting involved! I think he's getting bored of waiting for us to write something new so has taken up reading your blog instead! Ha ha!

It's understandable why you'd fall in love with Cambodia, I think it is one of my favourite countries. The coutryside is beautiful & the simple lives people lead is actually quite a humbling experience don't you think?

Where's my email Miss Debbie T? I looked forward to it all week, then alas, no email did provail. Only 4 weeks left in Syders then we're travellers again, yipeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Chris I hope you appreciate being added as one of my top friends on facebook! Not just anyone is granted that privilege.

Love you both. x x x x

Allright Debs!!! Have had a right laugh reading about your antics up to now -makes my daughter Cat's trip seem normal compared to you- unless she was leaving info out!! Anyway save all your travel stories and pop them into script form when you get home and send them off to Michael Palin (he of Monty Python !) i reckon you could be the subject of a new documentary series "Brit Backpackers go wild !" Seriously i can tell your having a mint time and experiencing some wonderful places.Best wishes to you both and "keep up the good reporting/journalism work!"

cheers

Mick,Anna&Josh Reynolds

Hey!!!

Can i just start by saying your happiness oozes from the screen of my laptop!

I am also soo impressed by the quality of photography, i hav fallen in love with soo many of your pics but for some reason the one with the kid on the rope swing just drew me in.! All of your waterside sunsets make me want to be sat there in absolute isolation. The tranquility ahh.

Right that got a little deep! Any hoo how long r u in cambodia for? Is this where you are looking for work and staying until after christmas? How do you think you will spend xmas day you will have to think of a really cool mix of english tradition and local culture. We should have that as a blog quiz, c who comes up with the best way for you to have xmas day. MMM I`m gonna ponder that one.

Sorry guys but i am also gonna take this opportunity to say hi to craig whom i haven't seen since may and amy who i haven't seen since you left. Hi, how the devil r u both.

Right back to you to, don't want to hi jack the blog. Please report the monkey in the cage to monkey world in dorset, biggest monkey rescue centre.

Any way i have to go for now, keep makin your memories and sending you both a big hug. Squeeeeeze did you feel it !

Love always

Vicki
