Hey Chris and Carol! I can't believe its been a whole year since we met on Margarita on the kickoff of your world tour. Wow! What an adventure its been. I hope you cherish the time you've spent together, and that you can bring your experiences into all your new goals in the future. Have a great coming home party! Wish I could be there.

Hope your landing back at home is soft and welcoming. Wish our visit was timed better so we could see you England. We had a great time in London - and Tuscany too. Looking forward to the wrap-up of all your travels.

Hello Hosey's
Pleased to hear you are well and armed with lots of tales to tell. Looking forward to finding out which places were in your top ten. Just so its not too much of a shock, I thought I might be able to ease you back into the LO humour Zone with this effort. Yes I know thats one of the reasons you left, but some things never change.
Terry had married a woman from America, and bragged that he had told his

wife she was going to do all the dishes and house cleaning that needed done

at their house. He said that it took a couple days but on the third day he

came home to a clean house and the dishes were all washed and put away.

Jimmy had married a woman from Australia. He bragged that he had given his

wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes, and the cooking. He

told them that the first day he didn't see any results, but the next Day it

was better. By the third day, his house was clean, the dishes were done,and

he had a huge dinner on the table.

The third man had married a Scottish girl. He boasted that he told her that

her duties were to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed,

laundry washed and hot meals on the table for every meal. He said the first

day he didn't see anything, the second day he didn't see anything, but by

the third day most of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little

out of his left eye. Enough to fix himself a bite to eat, load the

dishwasher, and call a landscaper.

Dear Chris and Carol, well, the journey's end is in sight?? How do you both feel about that? Looking forward to seeing you both again. (I'm not sure about the photos though???)

Love Carole, Stephen, Joanne and Tim xx

Dear Carol and Chris
Glad to hear you are well and the end of the journey is in sight. We will be glad to see you back IT WILL HELP WITH MY SALES TARGETS FOR JULY. I have enjoyed your trip (still a little envious) See you both soon

Ben here (NZ). Looks like you two are still having one hell of an adventure ! the picture of Chris with "live" explosives I find particularly amusing. For only a few extra bucks did you get the option of blowing up a local cow? (as in animal) - or is that one of those travellers myths...... Anyway good to see you keeping your website going and just to let you know that if you want to go back to the UK via NZ you are more than welcome to come and stay again at Villa Wilson !

vietnam looks good...I take it they have expanded the tunnel network to accomodate the 'larger' western tourist. Not sure if I fancy going into those tunnels myself, don't like the thought of all that earth above my head without knowing the quality of local workmanship...not like you get an extension done by the local vietnamese builders often in west london. Blighty is ticking by waiting for the prodigal sons (and daughters ) return. We were thinking about sticking an advert in the local beaconsfield news to warn the locals. You will of cousre be in time to help the baddeleys with the final 'push' due in 3 months. He is going to need all the support you can give!! What a thought Nick as a dad!!! Keep on truckin...

Extortionate pricing, rebuked for daring to step out of line - just like working for Batesy!! (our famed Giant "Tartan" Tortoise) c/o Dodgy Deals Street, Old Hanoi.
Tropical storm at end of motorbike tour sounds a bit hair raising - no problem for you then Chris!
Hey, at least someones reading the postcards :^)

Looking good, like a British version of John Rambo, only a bit more in a Private Godfrey style - where was your War Face!! Must have been a bit tight in the old tunnels, leading to shouts of "Do Push Me!!", I imagine there were a couple of VC tunnel rats up ahead of you excavating like mad?
Anyhow looks like you're having a rare old time whilst we enjoy the delights of UK Summer...rain, OK Wimbledons just around the corner so it's to be expected.
Take care of yourselves & see you soon.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the update. Its great to hear you are still enjoying your extended holiday!! I can't believe where the time has gone and that you will soon be coming home (even if it is for another holiday). Mark is golfing in the States at the moment with Keith, so I am having a little time off with the girls. They are growing incredibly - you wouldn't recognise them! Eden had her sixth birthday a couple of weeks ago and Daisy-Louise is 2 and a half going on 45! Love to you both! xxx
