Hi Both

Just had a look at all your new postings for the first time in about two weeks .... Looks pretty boring really, glad I'm in Derby ;-)

Mum says you're off to Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) next. According to your LP cities book, it's ranked no. 41 in the world, and you should go and see the Cao Dai Temple and the Cu Chi Tunnels. It also says that roast poodle is a particular delicacy over there (I may have made that last one up a bit).

Have fun x

Hi Chris & Louise, Sitting here with Granma after looking at your amazing pics. Your hand made clothes look smart (hope you dont crease them too much lol. Hope you are both well & not too sunburnt. We noticed the latest bikes had comfortable seats.

We have just been for a walk at Devil's point before the rain arrives for about 5 days !!!! Take care & have fun - Love M/D & Granma

PS are going out on Saturday on mumms bd - will be thinking of you both xxxx

Had a look through the hundres of photos you have taken on your travels and you are certainly seeing some sights and how life really is in that part of the world. Hope you both keep safe and well and make it to New Zealand for Christmas !

Will

Hi both - amazing piccies. I can't believe Louise is dragging you around the shops even over there Chris and you even look as though you don't mind (who says the camera never lies!).

Wish I was there too (yes, I know you don't Chris). I could live on the spectacular sights alone never mind not being able to eat the food.

It looks as though Louise is turning into a bit of an alki in some of the shots - Richard G would be very proud. I'm sure you're just holding them for the others though Louise.

Take care of you both - loads of love n stuff. Mum XXX & N & Rxx

Yo Yo Yo,

Wasapening lighto's!!! there is one very envious couple back here!!! awesome to see you're both having fun (including Nelly) and getting to see some amazing sights. Looks like it really is a once in a lifetime trip even though you're doing it day after day after day. Hope you're looking after each other...

Can't wait for the next installment

Hi both

Just got up to date on all your blogs/photos/videos .... Looks like you're having an amazing time, and I wish I was there (would make a nice change from the perpetual work/gym/uni cycle that is my life at present!).

I finally got round to watching the dvd of 'Heat' you bought me several xmas' ago (just thought I'd mention that as I've nowt much more interesting to bring to the table).

Speak soon x

Hey guys,

Min, bump and I are currently checking out your photos while delayed at Jersey airport. Looks like you're having a great time. We loved the louise falling off the elephant photo. Shame you didn't have a video recorder, otherwise you could have been in for £250!

Hi both - I take it you fell off dumbo Louise, looks amazing, I'm very jealous, I love effalumps. I hope you weren't laughing Chrs!! Still think you look like ET with the helmet - do the pointy finger thing next time. Love to both. Mum xx

Hello everyone,

Thanks for your messages-they are great to read whilst we're travelling.

Mum, they were real cats, but more like a Nancy version!

We're in Chiang Mai now, relaxing today after a gruelling trip up from the South. We're looking into doing some trekking, bamboo rafting and elephant rides whilst we're here. We also want to get out again on a motorbike to see some of the National Parks here, where we might even get to see some spectacular waterfalls and hot springs. Will keep you posted!

Mum-I am wearing suncream, I've gone brown now. Still red in the face on some pics after a massive hill climb!
