First stop back in the UK was Telford A&E accompanied by both Dads. We had quite a long wait and eventually got to see a Doctor who didn't even like looking at the photos of my injuries! He had a nurse change my dressings and we crashed out at Charlies place.
Next day I saw my local GP who promply turfed me to Lancaster for an orthap…
Carol Baum Nice to see your thoughts on Viet Nam in such a reader-friendly form. Obviously once was enough.
re: Vietnam RoundupM Thought the helmet was a bit dodgy but this is definately not your best look Tom! However talking about silk ? ? Purple, torquiose maybe?
re: photo from 09 August 2011M. Are you sure this is Nam looks more like the Dales???
re: photo from 09 August 2011M. Looks happy and enjoying view. Also more in proportion to locals than Tom. Does his release from captivity mean good news on camera???
re: for mumMum Guess your considered tall here, so there a kinda giant with big feet !!!!!!!!!!! Take care Gulliver.
re: Apparently theres a typhoon coming!!Charlie and Tom Hi Emma and Katie, Thanks so much for both your messages it was great to meet you too! It really was such a massive help having you there and I'm not sure how it would have gone without all the help we got. Have a great time in Hue and hopefully we might catch up with you further down Vietnam. You can email us at charlierbanks at hotmail dot com. Both on the mend thanks!

re: photo from 22 July 2011M Hey! Poor old Harry ....all that way just to get eaten by a crocodile
re: For MumCharlie Ha! you think you've got rain! This is the rainiest country i've ever been to! (Getting a bit sick of the rain actually...but otherwise it's lovely - I think you would really like Luang Prabang). Yes lots of bitey things...so far only been bitten by the mozies though! (Avoiding the snakes at all costs - here they put them in bottles of rice wine, definietly the best place for them!) Much love xxxx
re: Luang Prabang - Please Don't RushGracie Sounds wonderful guys! How magical to feel the full force of nature in the form of waterfalls, and so close too! All the food sounds scrummy, we need more piccies of all these 80p dishes you're bragging about! Be careful and stay away from nasty biting organisms (snakes! yikes! I'm sure there are many others too!). Lots of love from sunny (read: rainy) Edinburgh, G (and N!). xxxxxxxxxxxx
re: Luang Prabang - Please Don't RushGracie Sheer joy :D
re: photo from 18 July 2011Gracie Your face is precious in this picture love XD!!
re: Charlie FruitM & D Hi Guys Appears to be a theme developing.......food, food more food oh and occasional drink! Sounds good.
re: Slow Boating on the MekongM & D Sounds great guys, very envious. Bound to be a learning process in terms of costs. Certainly fitting in lots of exciting stuff already! Enjoy!!!!
