Jane Hey Ruth, just wondering what you are up to, feel like I haven't heard from you in ages lol Hope everything is going well xxx

Paul Rayner Greetings from the frozen north. JackieMum went to an interview today at St.Stephen's Primary School. Yes Ruth, they still remember you! (and Jane). Canal frozen. Us frozen. You warm. Grrrr!

Jane Hey, it's all still sounding v. kwl. Am jealous of your warmth even if it's not been sunny. It's absolutely freezing here even though Exeter seems to be the only place in Britain it hasn't actually snowed. Swamped with uni work atm which is v. mundane so v. jealous of your exciting times. Love you xxx

Cathi Thank you for skyping me on my birthday - it was lovely to see you even if it was through a very slow internet connection and very jerky! Lovely to talk to you about your adventures - what fun! Don't let the beggars make you feel downhearted. The fact that you are in the country, spending your money, is contributing to the economy. Maybe you can go back some time and do a volunteer project. That would help more people that giving a dollar to various children whose parents are standing close by - it's probably the family business Anyhoo - keep on keeping on and enjoy the "same same but different" thing! X loves ya

Cathi Loved these last two blogs about Kanchanaburi and Bangkok. You guys are having such a great time! Can't wait to see the photos eventually! Have you had any foot massages? So - next stop Cambodia - fab! Really looking forward to hearing about your adventures there! Take care and love life X Mum :-)

jade Very much looking forward to you coming back and cooking for me.ALL for me. My food :D no spring rolls for anyone else!

Jane Hey, i got ur postcard the other day but i must say that it is a thailand stamp not an indonesian one lol. But it was v. kwl all the same. It's still sounding all brilliant, i will send u an email as soon as i have enough to say lol. Love xxx

William Brilliant, I remember the spring roll incident from Cheltenham road! Chomp away!

Tingles He he he, i love it that janec's now gonna be making lots of spring rolls. Am i finally gonna get my chance to catch another very dodgy photo of janec eating 1? Janec i know you know what i mean, bwa ha ha! Its kinda appropriate that you're going to Bangkok next!!!!!! So happy for you guys though. Its wicked to hear that you're having an amazing time. LOOOOOOOVE. Xx

jackie Have succeeded in getting on to the Blog so I just thought I would day Hello to the two brave travellers before I left the library.

William JH Hello my voyaging chums! Yes indeed, I am on the internet, not quite as intrepid as your journey but a step in the right direction! Glad to be reading all your blogs (why is it called a blog?!) and seeing things are going well for you. Zoe told me about the UB40, i've always said island folk know what's good in life! All is well in Bristol, things at Hyde & Co are very well, 7 days a week now and oh yea, i'm now brand ambassador for Martin Miller's Gin! I currently have an unhealthy amount of juniper flavoured alcohol in my bedroom! Carry on enjoying yourselves and spread the love that is UB40, all the way from Paris!

Jane Big Buddha sounds kwl :) Hope u made it the million kms up to it without getting too puffed out. x

Paul Rayner Ruth & Janec Safe. Train journey was from Surabaya to Jakarta - o.k. BBC reports are of an accident to two trains travelling in the opposite direction, from Jakarta to Surabaya & Semarang. Will tell N&J.

Jane V. funny bout scales :) ah well scale reading isn't in any of our degrees that is my excuse. It's all still sounding v. gud and nice pics. xxx
