Sharon you'll be able to tell easily, if he's really been sunning himself for two months he'll have a wonderful tan when he gets back!

"Latest Blog Entry - Friday, 26 September 2008"

...then what happened, I've been sat pressing refresh on my browser every 15 seconds for 4 days now, and i am getting a little tired.

Hey Paul, I heard on the grapevine that you are currently doing a tour around England and Wales. Thought I'd log on and see how you are doing. I think it's false advertising for you to be talking about Asia etc.I know you are really staying in Gwynedd and you just can't do all those consonants in the Welsh language. Sounds like you are having a great time and I'm not at all jealous despite the blooming rain we're having here !Keep typing Me and Rog are enjoying reading your delusions about being abroad !

Hey Paul, Rich tells me you're a demon at blackjack! Did you stick to "the system"? You would have made Jim and Rory proud!

Although it would have been better to spend 8 hours playing and not win anything at all.

Any photos (or is it just too much time to upload them)?

All my other messages failed as I was sure 1+1=10, 1+11=100, etc

Sabah sounds amazing! Were you scared about the sharks? Isn't it instinctual just to panic?

How big are pygmy elephants? Bigger than Bobby?

Are you now a born again, revolutionary environmentalist? What do you think will work in saving the Borneo forest from loggers/palm oil developers?

Sounds like a really inspiring trip!

Whilst in Oz, could you find out why they've fallen so badly behind in winning Olympic medals. I'm sure an Assie would be keen to explain over a beer (or under a beer)!

Enjoy!

Paul, i know its nice for you to spend some of your money on 5* hotels and fun things for yourself during your holiday...but remember that presents are also very very important...

Paul, you are certainly having a fabulous time. Wish I was there. I'm offexploring myself tomorrow - going with Sue, Gareth and old dog to the wilds of the Isle of Mull for a week. We are staying in Glengorm Castle, miles from anywhere. Nothing to do but walk and watch the birds. It will be great. Bye for now. Kevin.

Hi Mum [Hi Rob],

I will be arriving in Manchester at about 1:30pm, a nice cup of tea would be lovely.

Ta,

Chris.

It was great to hear that you had such an exciting jungle trip.It must be wonderful to see all the wild animals in their natural surroundings.I wouldn't fancy meeting up with those horrible insects,though.Did you get bitten? How are you coping with the heat?

Enjoy your bit of luxury.I hope your ear infection clears up soon.

Love mum

PS Hi, Rob Hope you have settled in to your new home.

I thought you wrote, "Spiderman is fantastic" then... Hope you're having a great time, I bet you never want to stop travelling, ever!

Can't wait 'til you get to Toronto, our first visitor, woohoo! I have Monday and Tuesday off so we'll have lots to do!

Hi Paul

We're loving your blog.....do you think your mum and dad can wait another 2 years for more grand kids?? After reading your blog I'm seriously thinking about sacking off the new bathroom and a big shed and going on sebatical from work for 3 months....with Chris of course ;-)

I'm so pleased your having a fantastic time and can't wait to hear all about it when you get home - I hope your taking loads of photos!
