Yip tahooty.... so looking forward to you coming home and seeing you again- just read the last 2 blogs-and now i desp. want to go to Vietnam and Cambodia!
Am making Salmon thai style tonight so will be thinking of you over a nice glass of wine, wondering where you are now??
I booked our little boating holiday just now- fri to mon but if you want to come and stay at our the thurs night so can go up in the morning- and the monday night as we have booked the tuesday off work too..... whatever you want to do is fine by us- guess it depends on work for you too.

Hola!
Cant believe how much you are packing into each week! Loving the blogs and being able to keep upto date on what's happening.
Looking forward more to you coming home...still no where near to our bathroom and bedroom being done so may well be sharing the ensuite when you come up next!
Save a bit of cash for when you return as have an idea for a weekend together in the summer before you settle back into working life... or maybe you will never work again as you will both be Buddhists......
I cant believe 2 months have passed since we were with you in Thailand - your year away has flown by-not much has gone on here in the last 2 months- I turned 35, Steve went on a course with work in Wales at a eco site where he became a vegetarian for a week( has eaten nothing but meat since he came back so obviously didn't have a lasting impact!)
I made biscuits today- a vain attempt to be like you out there lol- when you come back here we shall have to have a Thai cook off in BSE- Bring back some Thai Whiskey and it'll be just like we are back in Krabi!
Looking forward to the next blog- take care of you!!

oh wow! Isnt Asia wicked..?? Sounds like you are having an amazing time. Enjoy Laos and be careful down the mekong.. i nearly drowned a couple of times and had to grab hold of some poor little unsuspecting monk to help pull me out of the river.. whilst Rowan looked on wetting her pants. We are staying at someone elses house now in Coombabah, Gold Coast, we are in heaven, they have the nicest pad and are spoiling us rotten, lets hope the good times continue to roll. Take care you two, Lots of Love Lette & Ryan xxx

NO doubt you guys will be in Borneo- picking leeches out of your pants about now! Hope you enjoyed it and got major use out of your head lamp Mr Lee!
WE are still so so over the moon that you came to meet us in Krabi- was amazing to catch up and we only wish we had longer with you.. need to work on steve for coming out to HK or china now!

Alright Bill Bryson and Lee.. how's singapore/asian treating you? keep thinking about coming to join you.. what were we thinking coming to Australia when we could have quite easily come and met you in Asia - dam stupid people that we are. We have just moved house, still in sydney but going to go to the Gold Coast in 3-4 weeks to see whats happening there. My work is okay apart from my boss is a complete jobsworth. Ry has being doing random jobs here and there but nothing stable. Sydney no longer holds the key to my heart.. just lovely Ryan. We are happy enough. so glad we got to chat mate - look forward to hearing from you as and when you can. Take care and hope you're both having an amazing time. Love Lette & Ry xx
Kelly - Oh Yeah, Its Me!
Oh hi!
Just thought I'd check in with you. I miss you and I love you. All this seperation anxiety is making me have tattoos done.
Loving the blogs hon.
Marathon training is getting hard - up to 21 miles now! We have the Brentwood half marathon on Sunday..Su from the Morning Crew is gonna be there, so I'll tell her you said Hi!
Anyway...Talk soon.
Love to you both.

Happy February!
More to the point Happy Bday to Mr Lee for later this month... with any luck we may get to meet up with you for a celebration in Thailand after the big event!
Your extra long blog and pics from NZ was "awesome"- you have done and seen and experienced so much..its brilliant! Jo you write so well...new career re think when you return!
What date are you due back to UK? Have to make sure we are around to get together ASAP - when you have seen family you have to get your butts up here... you know you are welcome to crash at ours as long as you need... hopefully by then we will have managed to sort out the main bathroom as this is now the project!
Yep you guessed it... walls down, cupboards ripped out, ceilings taken down... we have more gaps than surfaces but it'll all be worth it in the long term!
Freezing cold here still and it has rained LITERALLY ALL DAY... I look at your pictures with some serious envy- we are hoping the snow will stay away- have done pretty well compared to the rest of the country in the past couple of weeks- long may that continue!
Lovely to look at- cept not when you are falling on your ass in the process!
Still miss you both loads and are really looking forward to a good old catch up- you both look AMAZING- all this r and r really suits you!
Take care of you!
Happy Birthday Lee ( I know its a couple of weeks early but doubt I'll get on here again before hols) Have a fab day angel cakes
Loads a love and hugs S and N x x x x
Matt
hey guys I got your phone msg but you'd already left the country by the time I could have replied (sob)
Hope your enjoying the rest of your travels, let me know how to stay in touch now.
Take care

Happy New Year guys.
Natalie And Steve
Howdedoody you gorgeous pair!!
Happy New Year to you both! I hope you are having as great a time as the blogs and photos tell!! I am so jealous- it all looks amazing - I wish that we were there with you!
Steve is pulling the ceiling down in what will be are bedroom ( now that we actually have a floor in there! It seems the room is destined to have a surface missing forever more!)
Seriously though the house is coming along slowly but surely- we are supposed to be having all the double glazing fitted on Monday but since it has been between -3 and -6 degrees the last couple of days who knows!!
I cant ever remember it being THIS cold- there is constant frost on the trees and freezing fog- we have decided its time for some sun!!
Im going to look online tomorrow and see what I can come up with- somewhere far enough away to need injections i think! lol
Anyway we are both doing well and miss you and look forward to seeing you again- it actually doesnt seem that far away considering you are more than halfway through your big adventure.
We are so pleased you are having so much fun and getting to see SO SO much- I cant begin to imagine how you will settle back into UK life without getting itchy feet - perhaps you will be "caravan" crew and we can drive behind you and swear at you for driving so slow.... what am I saying... with Mr Lee driving- slow??? AS IF!!! lol
Keep taking good care of yourselves and we look forward to the next photo posts!
Lots of love and massive hugs and a side order of kisses!!
