Ciaran Alright mate, Had a rough week - wish you were here for a pint. Just read your blog - sounds absolutely amazing, I am so jealous.

Ciaran 10k in 42 mins, came somewhere between 15th and 21st out of 1,350; made over £400, thank you so much for sponsoring me. Hope it is still going well s

Ellie Miss ya sipp! :-) x

Ciaran Mate you are a beast, it sounds like you're having an amazing time. I did read your whole post - thanks for the well done - and I am so jealous; also, I think I played the disc game (or a variation on the theme) near the Pakistan border when I was in India. It is not luck though, it is skill - that is why I lost out by betting beer that I would win. Not much to report here - barely slept in 10 days or so due to excessive work (and the fact that I am basically sleeping on a train track) but course going well. Take it easy :-) x

Ellie MATTHEW!!! shoop shoop! woosh!! hope you feel loved now mr.sipp!! lol! :-)! being bridesmaid was soooo much fun! i felt like a princess!! hope you are having fun in bolivia! dont forget to buy me a goat! xx
