Hi Ed and Kate, Hope you are both good and your trip is just as good as it looks don't worry my msg ain't as long as my dad's have been. It is all quiet here apart from the american airforce doing low level fly overs at stupid o'clock. Rhys says hi and says he would like post card coz he doesn't belive you can go all round the world unless you are ben 10 ( he's a super hero on the kids channel) well Take care of each other and see you when you get back. Luv n stuff Vicki, Nigel, Rhys,Ellie & Taylor.

Hello my darling Miss Baker and Edward Handsome Pants ....

... I arrived back in the UK on Saturday after my summer of sun and am so excited to see that your travels have started safely soundly and you appear to be having a cracking time. Ian just looked through all of your photographs with me and we read your messages and he said it shant be long before we're on them too when we gate crash on you both in beautiful Thailand - you so know its going to happen. I'll make sure he is well educated with the concept of a web cam by then to avoid anymore complicated microphone/webcam mix ups. Ed saw right up his nose and to the back of his fillings didnt he bless him!!!

So sorry we didnt get to chat before you left miss Baker but this website just makes it all ok because its a great way to stay in touch.

Well im ever so excited for my next email to tell me that there's another update to look at. Once again i'm so super duper excited for you both and can't wait to see you early next year in the far east - it'll be here before we know it i bet!!!

Well we're always here if you need us (as i'm sure a mllion other friends and family are) so dont hesitate to call if you need anything.

Take Care of each other. Miss you millions. Love you to the moon and back. God Bless.

All my extra special love ...

Hi Ed and Kate,

Monaday am here in Barmby-on the-Marsh, the sun is shining, the birds are singing we can all beath easily, except when the wind is blowing from Drax (coal fired power station) and I (Kevin) have just finished breakfast (Coffee and a tab).

Glad to hear that Ed is continuing to relate to the natives, although if his trainers needed repairing why didn't he just glue some Peruvian money to them (pun). Why did his trainers need POLISHING anyway, is he getting poncy now you're a world traveller?

I'm also glad to hear that you are still doing what you do best (drink beer), but does the low oxygen levels help or hinder? Just wondering if low oxygen levels makes you p****d quicker? Especially after the comment on the Blog "you cant walk very far without gasping for breath, and you feel dizzy and nauseous" that sounds like Ed coming home from the pub on a Saturday night! As I said in the last message, you can get that experience by staying at home.

Shame about not being able to take photos in the Inca museum, i was looking forward to more pictures of skeletons and mummies, really lightens up the day they do (not).

I am sorry to see that Anglo-American relations have taken a nose-dive, maybe you should have taken them out and showed them how to do it - drink that is - you're both getting expert at it nowadays.

Right must close now, as I have to wash up after last night's full English we had for tea, in case you've forgotten that Bacon, eggs, sausages, fried potatoes, mushrooms, black pudding, tomatoes, baked beans and fried bread and it was dekicious!

Best of luck at Lake Titicaca, (at 3,812 metres (or 12,507 feet in old money))

Love Kev and Sue

Today's joke:

"What?" said the puzzled groom. "How can that be if you've been married ten times?"

"Well, Husband #1 was a sales representative; he kept telling me how great it was going to be.

Husband #2 was in software services; he was never really sure how it was supposed to function, but he said he'd look into it and get back to me.

Husband #3 was from field services; he said everything checked out diagnostically but he just couldn't get the system up.

Husband #4 was in telemarketing; even though he knew he had the order, he didn't know when he would be able to deliver.

Husband #5 was an engineer; he understood the basic process but wanted three years to research, implement, and design a new state-of-the-art method.

Husband #6 was from finance and administration; he thought he knew how, but he wasn't sure whether it was his job or not.

Husband #7 was in marketing; although he had a nice product, he was never sure how to position it.

Husband #8 was a psychologist; all he ever did was talk about it.

Husband #9 was a gynecologist; all he did was look at it.

Husband #10 was a stamp collector; all he ever did was... God! I miss him! But now that I've married you, I'm really excited!"

"Good," said the new husband, "but, why?"

"You're a lawyer. This time I know I'm gonna get screwed!"

Hi Ed and Kate,

Glad to see that you arrived OK, that the weather is soooooo wonderful and that you are getting into the local cuisine, are having exciting times with the kids, and are generally sticking to what you do best (drinking Beer)

I must say that from the descriptions and the photos, you could have saved yourselves a whole heap of money for the same experience - it looks and sounds just like Cleethorpes on a wet Bank Holiday Monday.

I'm a bit bothered by the message on the home page - (but try keep them clean as the oldies might be reading them!).

Just who are the "oldies" you are referring to, all the ones you know will probably be posting chat that would embarrass the "youngies"!

Also, isn't it time you went a bit more "native", and started trying the local Cuisine, it's a bit of a drag travelling halfway round the world to have a Cheeseburger and Chips - you can do that at home. (as long as you don't go to Macdo's)

Will keep in touch on a regular basis now that I have found the web site, so in the meantime love to you both and hope everything goes well with you.

Love Kevin and Susan : - scroll down

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack.

"Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday."

Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager.

Patty explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral.

The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.

Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and disappears into a back office.

She finds the manager and says, " There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000, and he wants to use this as collateral ."

S he holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what in the world is this?"

(you're gonna love this)




The bank manager looks back at her and says...

"It's a knickknack, Patty Whack. Give the frog a loan, His old man's a Rolling Stone."


(You're singing it, aren't you? Yeah, I know you are........)
