Hi Mark/Katie

Its me again Mr runner up south Woodham ferrers 1902, yer ole Da again. Well you both look very well judging by the photoes, Little bit disappointd expected to see Mark and a Tiger in the same photoe by now? And what about those green trousers when are we going to se Mark sporting those in more photoes, how about mark wearing the green trousers standing next to a tiger.

Well Mark we are missing you now all the computors have gone hay wall and we really need you to come home and sort them out . remember the day before you went away you had our computor in tiny bits on the bedroom carpet? Did you by any chance install a 1960s style teas made inside? because every morning about 6:30 it comes on by itself and loads of steam comes out of the back? and it whistles. see you both soon Dadxxxx

Hi Katie and Mark;

I have not posted on this yet but I have read it fairly regularly. usually when I get nagged by mum to have a look becuase it has been updated.

We had a training day today at school and I gave a talk on the educational use of blogs and I used your travel blog as an example of blogs.

See you soon;

Graeme

Hi Mark/Katie

Its yer ole Da here?

Mark where did you get those green strides from the ones you got on in the gateway to India in Mumbai? Did someone leave them on a bus? or did you get them from a Mcdonalds delivery boy?

How much does a happy meal cost in India anyway? do they do strawberry milk shakes?

Is there any news on the books yet? remember the ones that stopped us getting in our garage for about six months.Its funny cos mum and I went to the coast at the weekend and we saw loads of books go floating by in cardboad boxes. love Dad ?Mum?

Heyhey! Thanks for the postcard KT (not you Mark, you were just rude to me AND you wrote the wrong address) i'm very interested in your camel rides as I too will hopefully get to go to the desert and ride a camel cos my housemates and I are doing a sponsored hitchhike to Morocco next Easter! anyhoo let me know if it's fun, can't wait to see you over Christmas and see lots of photos! lots of love Hannah xxx

Hey guys, looks like you're having a great time out there (love the pics of the elephants lol) Get Mark to reply to me on Facebook!!!

Keep uploading photos as they'll keep me entertained for a while (its so boring back here compared to what you're doing)

Much Love,

Hiya you two

Just been looking through your photos and wow they look amazing hope your both having a really good time.

Glad you wore helmets on the scooter, and you maybe 21 but no, Katie you can't have a scooter!

Hi you both, gone a bit quiet recently, nothing going on? No exotic animals, no marvellous sights, might as well be here in Dagenham! Please post an entry on your site soon otherwise KT, your Mum will be booking a flight to come and find you. Thanks for the rail books and card speak to you soon. P.S. The hat was cool too, just a touch to small.

Hi Mark/Katie,

Its Sunday morning 6th nov, just looked at the recent photoes.

When are you going to meet the tiger?.

It was firework night here last night, Rosie and Sam spent 4 hours solid out in the garden barking at the firewoks, a spent firework landed in the garden and sam ran around the garden with it in his mouth jumping and trying to take off like a rocket dog!.!.

Your car is still in one piece Daryl likes driving it. Lee is still at his new job, Mum has been in touch with the enviromental dept. to get tips on how to clean your room. she tried to find the address of the lady who gave you the letter and photo, she knocked on loads of doors but didnt get any luck in the end someone called the police and they chased her away. xxxxxx

Dad.
