Hi Nads,
loved your write up on Singapore. How long do you plan in being in Oz and NZ?
Not had much time this week to check out the photos. Will look at them over the weekend. Not that you would know what that means!!
Ciao.

Hi Nads
I read the last blog and got to admit it sounds extremely funny. The w**** house bit happened to us in Germany. We took Nannu and Nanna and your mum I think) to a pub and all the drinks were DM5. All the people there were staring at us ie men, whondering what we were doing there. Nannu then had a word with Paul, we drank up and left needless to say very quickly. We still laugh about it now.
Never mind you are in Australia now and the majority speak English, so it might be a bit easier there to recognise the signs. Perhaps you should check in at night, so that you can see how the Sheilas are dressed.
Bye for now.
Maris

Nads,
Enjoyed the write up an intersesting mixture of views, comments & experiences all adding to the variety, and the memories that you will have. now you will be moving to a different lifestyle, and hopefully it will be just as varied in what you have experienced in the last month, but you will also get some time to reflect on the past weeks.As usual will look forward to the next update, and your comedy input.
Take care & enjoy, love mam & dad

I agree with Michael, you sound tired love. Better to see one less country and explore more deeply. Sometimes it takes two takes of something to understand what is going on arount you.
Anyway, I am looking forward to the butterflies and the orchids. You can keep the birds, do not like feather or fur. Deers I miss from my back garden though.
Your 'rats' look good, I am sure that they are getting fatter. I thought you might like to know.
Bye for n ow, must walk Bella after I showered and get on with c/dec.
See you soon, stay safe to both of you.
Mike
Hi Nads,
I know the temptation is to pack 120% into a day. Sometimes it pasy to do nothing but sit back and enjoy observing. So some days just chill out or you might turn the holiday into a chore. Hope you and Singapore get on better tomorrow. :-)

Hello Nads, it is good to hear from you, however do not go to depressing sites as these stay with you for the rest of your life. It is true, when I think of Jerusalam I first think of the rememberace place of the Holicost then I think of Passion of Christ and then I think of Bethleham of the the dirty little children begging with a shambles all around them, bullets on the building, buildings knocked dowm and that was only outside the church. because of the unrest there, then I think of the cave of the nativity. In that order. We can only protest and spread the word to stop these atrocities happening again. When I see church man saying that the Jewish problem did not happen in Germany, I want to smack somebody. So get on with girl and get to oz. You are young and have your life ahead of you. I am sorry about the bad spelling today but I am in a hell of a hurry.
Love, Aunty Maris.
Uncle Paul
Nads,
Just a quick comment. If you save the update with just the name of the place then make another update you need to add version 2 or can not see both of them on your home page.
I can read both Siem Reap pages because I have the igoogle tracking you, but if I go to your home page I can only see one entry.
enjoy your adventures and keep us all up to date :-)

Hello Nadine
Where are you at the moment? Last I read it was Fifi islands you must have moved on by now. It is nearly a month since you were in the UK and I have not seen you for six weeks, it does seem longer somehow. I have been busy making cakes etc and to-day we went to Oddette's for tea. Uncel Paul and little Paul were out soaking one another with water pistols. I hope you learn to cook something other than snake and we shall get an invite to sample your new cooking skills.
Stay safe.
Lonts of love and hugs.

Just a thought for you, while you do not want to spend time shopping - you do not want to take trophies in your pack. It may be worth considering you can send things that you buy to your home.
Something’s that cost pennies where you are cost a great deal more in UK, and you have the memories of haggling.
For example : IPB are authorized shipping centers for FedEx, DHL, UPS and Parcelforce.
Prices for air freight up to 30kg from Ban;
