Mr Barnes, if you wanted to be surrounded by Indians, stuck on buses and being bored out of you mind then you could have gone to Southall...lol.
Long time no chat mate, sorry I never replied to your text but once again I got drunk and lost my phone (4 times in 12 months). Hope things start to look up and may the force be with you dude!
Peace out x

Hiya, give india a chance, a couple of friends of mine are out there travelling around at the moment and loving it. But I guess if you went there to coach and can't find any where that wants it, then that would be a bummer! Hopefully next week will be better!

how u coping without me big guy? do you look over in the morning and think whats the point of getting up anymore? Its ok mate the pain will go away. I landed in Gatwick with no money and no phone and had a rage blackout at the information desk. Its ok though i got to spend 7 hrs on the national express. Turns out theres plenty i can pay for that will make me truly miserable. X
Its been tough mate! The rooms pretty empty now and as you can imagine when sammies not around the conversation and banter is riveting! Nah, its not that bad, couple of newbies have arrved since you left and they're quite nice, leave for india on sunday anyway.
Good to hear the fits of rage are not stictly confined to Sri Lanka, had you been on the arrak on the plane? Why did a coch journey to Leeds take 7 hrs? 5 tops surely?
Good to hear from you mate, keep us updated with your freshers week 'results'!

Understand your rant, I had the same thing when I came back from Sri Lanka, but let's not generalise please!.....So when was the last time I got up off my @rse and did something like that... January, so Ok it was along time ago now, but still... Hey! Oh and just looked at the photo albums, I take it you didn;t pay to take your camera into the Temple of the tooth either!
Neil - The rant obviously wasn't aimed at you, i know all about what you done and admire you for doing all that work. There was no generalising ... you lot are hard work some times! Me and my camera had a falling out after my visit to the temple of the tooth. Apparently i looked at another camera and mine got jealeous and wiped all my pictures to get back at me. Learnt my lesson.
Sami And Nickypoo's!!
Nick says your face is a disgrace!!
Ofcourse he's only joking!! we're sat in the office on nico's last day working really hard obviously!! Lovin the love for your 2 favourite peeps in the journal!!

Knew you'd like Kandy, I really didn't like the elephant orphanage, too many chains - Just wanted to check when you are supposed to be in Thailand, heard about the military coup and started worrying!
Anyway, glad you are still enjoying it!

Hi Neil. Mum passed your site on to me and you sound like you are having a wicked time. Printed your journal to show Hayley and Adam - they will be soo jealous. Carry on having fun!!! Love Gill
Daz (Boo)
Dude!
I have been checking in constantly with your blog and I am glad to see you enjoying your time (yes, i am jealous). Nice to see that even though you are so far from home some things never change, and yes I am talking about the nutmeg. I must tell you about Triggers attempt at a yard of ale in Wales, his world shattering record time was 42mins and 28 seconds.....apparently he didn't quite understand the concept of drinking it without stopping...lol.
I very much look forward to the next installment and get some pics up dude!
Continue to have fun mate.
Esther
Hey Neil,
Glad your having a great time! I've sent you an email with all the updates from Lost, It's getting really Juicy...people are changing! Try and send us some pictures when you get the chance.
Later Ted x x
Julie Barnes

It all sounds excellent.
Take care
Mum
ps - you will have to get someone else to fill you in on Lost - I fell asleep during the last episode, as usual!
