As expected Mrs M has beaten me to it and expressed herself so much better. Picture quality is still superb. I find that if you read the story (e-mails) then watch the film (photo's) it all comes together nicely! Roose I am concerned about your bikini line - do you want me to send Hughie over for a visit ? Looking forward to seeing the Hong Kong photo's to see if there is anywhere I recognise from my time there! Stay healthy and keep snapping - LOL Mr Mx
Mrs M
Due to swanning off on our own hols, we were a bit behind on your photo albums, so have had lots to catch up on. Here's my feedback on the piccies of Laos, Cambodia, and Angkor - for what it's worth!!!
Sensible comments first.........excellent photos of sunset over Mekong river; lovely piccy of you two on your bed in Luang Prabang $6 hotel; amazing statues and monuments in Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom (though weather looked a bit like England!); chilling photos of skulls, bones and human remains in the Killing Fields; great pictures of children paddling in washing up bowls on what had to be said is a very dodgy brown river; Buddha's all over the place in Buddha Park; colourful flowers and butterflies and beautiful golden temples - lovely.
Now the strange comments.......... spider in bathroom - now where's the demand for that??; Ta Prohm - what is that.....? It looks like masiiiiive giant chicken feet; played the 'where's Roose and Joey?' game at Angkor (in a window, lounging on a statue, sitting in front of an elephant, balancing on an ancient monument); pigs on a moped - I will be suggesting this economical method of livestock transport to the pig farm next door!
Great to be able to see some of what you're experiencing - thanks for doing a tedious job so that the wishful armchair travellers amongst us can soak up the atmosphere. Keep 'em coming ! Take care, love les M's xxxxxx

Hi there from sunny London! It sounded like you were going to do a lot before you left, but it seems like you've managed to do even more!! The photo's look amazing and I'm glad that you've managed to do the few things that you thought might be a bit tricky! Looking forward to the publishing of the next email, have fun Andy (mini rob)

Roose - Make sure you try a KFC bargain bucket whilst in Cambodia.
I understand the quality of chicken is much better there.............Jutes.

Hi ya!
Just wanted to say Allisons been keeping me updated with your travels by forwarding your emails on. They make really good reading, as soon as I get it I print it out and take it home to read! I love reading travel books etc, so I find it really interesting what you've been up to.
Looking forward to what you think of Hong Kong, Martin and I are thinking of going in November. I'd be grateful for any hints and tips!
Take care

Photos still fantastic - the light and colour are amazing. It must be so much to take in at times and these photos are such a wonderful record of the 'epic journey'. Hygeine tip for Roose - remove your pants before using the loo that way they will last longer then the standard 4 days. Can't believe the steam train photos what with Roose being a qualified diver... Joey glad to see you were trying out the local cuisine - chips ! Labels must be a pain but thanks as it makes our lives easier! Take care, LOL Les M's

Think the photos are fantastic, but my favourite out of all of them is the feet with white lines - typical tourists. The photos are stunning and I hope that you will add some more titles to some of them so we can match up the piccies to the emails/places you have visited. Keep 'em coming!

Hi guys
Cannot believe the technology these days - what happened to spending 72 hours in a grotty post office shouting randomely whilst numerous pieces of paper were filled in before you even got sight of a phone (let alone a computer...) how times have changed.
Photos look amazing - its great to be able to see what you are up to so easily
Keep having fun & copying me on the emails - remember to remove the swear words, The Body Shop appears to be a bit prudish these days...
Take care
