Dave Wilson Hi Carolyn, Your pictures are amazing and it looks like you're having an incredible time. Have had to dig out my old travel photo albums to remind me of all the fabulous places I visited & would love to do it all again, although I can't see that happening until I'm about 70! We've just had a baby - Rory and time just seems to be flying by. TT is on at the moment, today is Mad Sunday & it's warm & sunny, am going out for for lap later! Profits will be down at the beer tent due to your travels, although I'm sure watering holes across the world are making the most of your renowned thirst! Take care, Dave.
