Hey guys, sound like your having an absolute ball! I've been starting my day with a blog & a cuppa - very entertaining and the messagaes aren't too bad either...
Hope you're not missing your heels too much Nic!
Just wanted to say a big hello from me and my men xx
Mum And Dad Aber
well hello you two! thought we would try to be as adventurous as you and book a weekend in Dublin. You would be proud to know that mum booked the flights without umming and ahhinng saying 'shall we, shan't we' for 2 months! we go from the 22nd to the 25th November and dad is alreading looking forward to the Guiness.
The adventurous bit was following my darling daughter's advice and booking a hotel without checking trip advisor, holidays uncovered, holiday watchdog, etc etc. then checking afterwards and finding out that it is a frequent haunt for ladies of the night!!
so back to the drawing board and am busy comparing hotels and driving myself mad trying to choose the right one, in the right area for the right price (you know what I'm like Nicola!) so sufice to say places where there are snakes, giant spiders and monkeys are off my shopping list. I wonder what other kind of wildlife we might find in Dublin? the lesser spotted stag or the gaggle of hens?

Hey guys, yet again, I am sat here chuckling at your antics so far (am getting strange looks!!) At least you have something to tell the grand kids with your near death experience with the Cobra, though I hope your journey remains safer than that!! Not sure what to make of the burning body thing then washing your clothes in the same water!?* Maybe you had to be there to truely appreciate the beauty of it??!! Keep safe and loving the journal so far, Sarz xxx

I hope I got that summation correct without the aid of a calculator!
Good to see you guys are enjoying your travels and the experiences each day brings. It is amazing how open you can become regarding bowel movements when you travel (no pun intended!). No detail is too minute for a good conversation around the dinner table!
Not wishing your holiday to move more quickly than it is but Ang and I are looking forward to your visit in Dec/Jan.
Wedding went well - if you get a chance check out the following snaps
loving the updates keep them coming thick and fast. wanted to tell you a couple of things. 1/. Im considering starting up my own jam company. 2/. I have no more goats.
Please be careful.
Rathe.

many thanks for your long wonderful interesting letter from the wastes of the earth. l have looked on goole earth at this very worthy place tovisit " allahabad" a bit like maryport when the pubs used to shut at 10.30am. the railway station and its surrounding goods yards look like barrow on a sunday morning when the"selandia" closes. l zoomed down as you can on goole earth, -americans are very nosey poeple- at least they have a cricket pitch witch looks like a splendid place, but no public toilets- a bit like abbey road. please dont catch a bus, belle is not too good paying on public transport, people in the far reaches of the empire-edinburgh- can vouch for that. it is thursay night and it is even dark in the above place- barrow- l noticed that thereis not much shelter in the place where you are at, but it is hot, source bbc. when you left the furness area, you said they if you had your money stolen you may want us to wire you money, How do you wire tiolet paper? liverpool lost last night, they were that thing that cows do. just a thought, whilst you are spending all this time at your "toilet" can you remember your carbon foot print. i haveto tell you that the reports on the Man. City match, see these pages, were very boring, see Alan Shearer's point of view on the bbc. web site. Finally-if you are lucky- it only costs 49p to send a text from anypart of the world where you are at. even rich poeple can afford to keep in touch, remember snakes bite. and electrians are at at a a premium in downtown allahabad. Town play again tomorrow against tramnere,

ott & belle - hope you're both well. Nice run down on the toilet antics - something quite liberating about taking a dump in the outdoors. Are you really planning a trip to base camp? can't work out if this is a blog megs. Bear Grylls said two birds just turned up at base camp one day, so I guess its possible. Can you bring me a piece of real everest rock back.
Nice to see you've given the IB t-shirt an airing. Don't suppose they'd ever heard Longsight's finest.
Not much else to report. Planning a trip to the 'dam for NYE - not quite a night in the snug down the cock. Ashton is fannying around, so it will probably just be me and the skinny fat bloke.
