You didn't meet the one armed pool player in Cameron Highlands then!!?!? That was the highlight of my trip!! Sounds like you are having a blast, still v jealous

(By the way, shoot your guide if he told you but.... KL Tower is twice the height of Aucklands SkyTower and about twice the Sydney tower......!!)

Hi Chris,

Glad you're getting your footy fixes, hope you enjoyed the Inter game. You both seemto be having a ball so far, when I read the blogs kinda wish I was there myself. Postcard arrived yesterday, views on card look like heaven on earth.

Hope you love Singapore as much as theother places you've visited so far. Keep safe, keep haing fun.

Love to Claire.

Mum

Louise, Thomas, Noah - no cockraoches, seriously, you should've seen them! never know, i might try something in Australia or somewhere but my good god they looked awful!

Fulty - GET YOUR ARSE OUT HERE!!! lol...heard about the news from home, hope its an isolated incident. if all that starts up again, i'm picking a country while i'm away! maybe Thailand, bucket of whiskey and coke for like 2.50! GET OUT HERE!!

Gibbo - good to hear from ya! claire says thanks for the nemo name, was pissing her off. gotta say, we thought white's was warm.... saw all the united goals since i left, looking good. heading to bed shortly, its after 11 and im up at 3 to watch the inter game!

B- better without me, are you raking? what are ya gonna do though with only half the nights of pro you're used to over next 5 months! had my first FM sickness bout few days ago, really wanted to manage Sheff Wed!!!

Lynsey and Alan - we just had ice cream and a drink in the (no joke) Geographer's cafe in Melaka, we've photos to prove it but who knows when they'll be posted!

Anyway, its just over 4 hours till United Inter so I'm off for a few hours kip and to set my alarm for 3am!

Keep them coming guys, great talking to yas!

Hi guys, thanks for all your messages, we love reading them all! we have been trying our hardest to get some photos up and runing. chris got a snazzy wee camera in KL (yay photos once again!!) but alas this comp is a bit poo and wont let us put stuff up. we will try once we get to Singapore.

oh and stuart malaysia is 8hours ahead of the UK and it is 10.55pm here and it would be 2.55 for you at home (your prob just about to leave school, and im about to go to snoooze!!) when we first land in oz it will be 8 and a half hours ahead i think. cool !

Hey Chris and Claire,

We are enjoying your blog so far! Sounds like you are having an amazing time. Lol at the references to limestone etc- Geography geeks thru and thru!!

Looking forward to pics.

Keep enjoying yourselves,

Lynsey and Alan.

Yes im now offically jealous! elephant trekking and beaches with clear blue sea sounds amazing but nothing compared to a bit of rain, snow and freezing weather. lol

Well heres an update on wot we have done. A few of us went 2 the point for the pub quiz last week. Came 3rd but there was only prizes for first 2 teams, Gutted!

Went and seen Watchmen in the cinema on Sunday. Terrible film, dont bother wit it. U cant follow it!

Here Chris we had r first pro nte without u! We were amazing cnt believe we kept u apart of the 4. lol! We started with Hull in 2nd Division with the really bad pro players and r pushing for promotion.

Sorry 2 hear bout ur camera Claire but ull b able 2 get a really class 1 for cheap out there. Now thinking bout it its wierd u camera breaks on ur trip so we cant see evidence of these amazing places. u havent left at all! ur still in Belfast. Im onto ur scam! lol

Talk 2 u soon and keep enjoying!

Jeez! that wee sum it asks you to "solve" before posting a message was deadly! 4+5! the answer is of course 9 but that was some sweat figuring that out!

firstly i apologise for not registering my jealousy before now but i completely forgot that you guys set this thing up and carried on in boring work blissfully unaware i could read about lost bags, potentially exploding forecourts, elephants and stuff. needless to say i'm just a wee bit jealous.

looking forward to pictures and more updates, and as Fulton says you ain't missing much here except for an unwelcome trip down memory lane (ballbags)

p.s. i think the fish that was "from the ocean" in Nemo was called Gill, i can't take credit for that, a couple of girls in work figured it out after about half an hour of "brainstorming" (also sorry if someone already told yous that but i haven't read all the messages)

Claire, your wish has come true, you are making us all insanly jeallous, its slightly depressing coming onto this blog now to read about your antics in far away lands were people arnt quite as uncivil as the "spides" that rule our streets here in the North. lol.

In saying that I cant help read on.... and your last blog there was quite frankly sickening in the best possible way. lol. Im almost chucking in my job and taking out one of those crazy overdrafts people talk about, hopping on a small winged beast and nose diving into malaysia to join yaz.

Gutting news about your camera, was looking forward to seeing leos footprints in the sand lol.

I was waiting on toomy's first blog and as promised we got a good mention of plant life in Malaysia lol, am i right in saying they have no invasive species?? I think so!! woo! :) Also a diet of fish would be awesome, if i were you id go for it, think of the protein.

In contrast and as expected your missing NOTHING here, if anything you have left at the perfect time! The weather is still frown worthy, its raining and sometimes snow appears from nowhere and as you can imagine the temperature is just lovely too. :)

In other news some lovely dissident ira people shot dead 2 soliders last night outside an army barracks in antrim when they were collecting a pizza, instantly catapolting us back to the 1970's!! Theres your contrast...lol

Laters, take care and photos please :)
