Come on guys - where's the next update??!!! Don't tell me you're lost somewhere!

I need photo evidence of you guys climbing the Great Wall of China!

I remember those days with a backpack - I used to have to ask the nearest two strangers to help me on with mine (couldn't do it on my own) I then ditched the majority of the contents too.
Take care and can't wait for the next episode.
Love the Root-Wrights xxx

Hello - you two do make me laugh!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can I say am I surprised???? - no not really!!!! You do remind me of your mother!!!! She would have done exactly the same. I can hear her though .. "Oh Steph..a..neee...Oh Kim..ber..leee"

So glad you eventually arrived safely - have been thinking about you lots & was so thrilled to see your message (albeit twice ... you sent me 2 in your excitement!!!) - isn't the internet great (that's what us old people think!)

Do keep safe & beware of one-footed men? Imagine that to be one of your first experiences! & what with the zebra crossing -

Little tip form Auntie TC - UK rules ONLY apply in the UK!!!!!

What is so heavy in your rucksak - I do hope you haven't started collecting my presents already!!!!!!! Could you send items home instead of throwing away? Mother will be pleased - I can store stuff if needbe - bear in mind - I don't even mind receiving any presents early!!!!

You two take care & enjoy your planned trip over the next couple of weeks - will be thinking of you...LOVE YOU BOTH LOADS

Lots of love & Hugs TC (Neil,Charlie, Amy (back on!), Alice & Bud send thier love too) xxxxxxxxxxxx
