Hello Charlotte and Iain, don't you just dislike people trying to get a quick buck! (O.K. Alex £5.00 sponsor money will be on it's way).

Charlotte well done, you are certainly fit! excellent timing, hope your employers were impressed with your efforts.

Hope the weather is better over there, we are still Wet Wet Wet!!!! you either have to be up really earlier to catch a glimpse of the sun, to be fair we have had a couple of good nights through the week.

Hope you have a great weekend, cannot wait to hear all your news.

Hope the cycling to work is working out for your both.

Take care, continue having fun.

By for now Aunt Linda xx

You look like your drunk alot, is that right? Thought you were supposed to be taking in the culture....hehe You both look like your having a blast! I'm organising a charity event in September and thought your blog would be a cheap way of advertising to everyone that is around, 5 aside football tournament on the 25th of September in aide of UNICEF. Raising £7,000 for them and saving around 18,200 children! Will be doing a sponser for this so everyone is down for £5.00 a head?

Best and love Alex

OMG, i'm sooooooooo jealous as it It all looks amazing! Glad to see you've both found jobs so quickly but managing to have lots of fun sightseeing at the same time. Iain it was Calums' leavin do last night. He's been in the job a week and his forearms are hurting already from holding on to his big hose but he's lovin it. Anyway got to go, would like to say i'm going sunbathing but there's no chance of that happening so Iain you can keep your suntan lotion as we've had nothing but rain here for ages!! Catch up with you both soon. Take care. Susan x

Hello sweetie,poor you and your sweaty dash. Maybe you saved a client some cash. Sorry to hear about your phone crash. At least you didn't make a big hash, and drop your paper stash.

things can only get better!

Hi Iain and Charlotte, bet you are both surprised to here from the Airdrie crew. Your mum has just recently given me the address and it has taken me about a week to work out how to get on to your site. Hope that you are both keeping well. We have been to three weddings in four week and I was the chief bridesmaid at my sisters so that was one of my ambitions filled all I need to do now is to be godmother,so all offers will be very welcome!!!!! Jim was asking if Iain is looking for a new mobile as he has just bought a new one and knew how easy Iain is at loosing things.Take care and we will follow your progress on your amazing journey. lots of love Jim Christine Christina & Clark xx

Love to you both

Hi Guys, keeping up with your stories, and photo's are quality. Glad to hear you got work, although a bit concerned when I saw a programme about Australia having one of it's most dry spells ever - thought Oh No he's had Visio out re-designing the whole water pipe network and put an arrow to the wrong box! Keeping fit as well guys - Charlotte, based on distance v time your catching him! Go on! A South American soccer outfit eh? Every team full of silky players needs a dirty ball winner I suppose. Take care Guys, and keep up the good work on the Surf Dude mop.

Iain, If your Tom Tom Charlotte navigator is malfunctioning you will have to top up the battery. You must take it immediately to a chocolate filling station. Regular fuel just won't do, you will have to find a Belgian Import garage which specialises in hand made battery packs. It will cost you a lot of money but you can offset that against tax for routine expenses when you get home. Oh yes, that's the bad news, Charlotte navigators need topping up regularly or they can become very temperamental. Maybe you could be fuel efficient and source a chocolate sausage? I don't envy you........

Hi guys,

Sounds like you're both having a great time! Have to say i'm impressed with all the exercising that's going on. It's nice to be able to see what you're up to....burning sausages, ending up down the wrong motorway, as well as everything else! You've done so much so far and just think, you've got all year to do more!

Lots of luv Sarah xx
