Debbie M Hi Chris Still reading the blog - keep up the good work. Not long until you are back. Weather here is starting to warm up - almost spring like. Debs xxx

Jose Hi Kuya Chris It was an honor to met you at B&B in KL. You're fun & interesting to talk with. But it was just so quick bcoz we left early at 2AM heading back to Philippines. You were still snoring (joke). Just keep in touch and you're welcome here in our place. You have a brother/friend/home here okay?

Bernie Hi Chris Reading your blogs with great interest, all looks great and we are so pleased you are having some interesting/wonderful experiences. I love the comments from your friends in the UK about snow, made us really laugh, they ought to come to Canada to see snow!!!. Well spring is really on the way now, many of the first bulbs are in full bloom, very colourful. Debs is working in Vancouver but with a bit of luck she might have a job at the local hospital in Squamish, will find out next week. Last week I fell down the stairs to the basement and cracked/broke a few ribs, if I had been drunk I would have been ok. Everyone here (from the pub etc)wishes you well and looking forward to you returning to our wonderful province. Take care and all the best Bernie

Debbie M Hi Chris. Been catching up on the blog. Currently unemployed after being made redundant - although I have another job lined up and should be starting in a couple of weeks. I am leaving the construction industry to work for a company who supply clothing to the military. Wonder if they will let me borrow stuff for the weekends ;o) Think you picked a good year to go travelling. Interest rates are expected to go down to 0.5% today xxx

Emma & Sarah Hi Winney, well we're back in England now. Having left Thailand we arrived home only to be hit by snow! Not snow by Northern standards you understand but snow none the less! Quite a contrast. Thanks for the fun in Bangkok. Of particular note was the trek through the back roads guided by a man we'd just met making promises of good food! I must confess that when we passed our seventh pack of street dogs and made our twelth turn down unknown and unlit road I was more than a little concerned! As it happened the resturant was superb as was the company. Hope you are well and enjoyed your holiday with Rosie. Much love, The Bams xxxxxxx

Brian & Nobby Hi Chris, Nobby and I were sitting in the office reading the blog and seeing what you've been up to. We decided to send you a message wishing you a Happy New Year and all that. It's snowing over here at the moment, not too bad but hundereds of schools shut and 10 out of 11 tube networks down.....only in england eh. Great reading about all the places you've been to looking forward to catching up soon. All the best mate, Brian & Nobby.

Peter Hello Chris. With the wondeful places you are visiting and the people your are meeting the question is will you ever want to come home? Just to give you a smile we are expecting snow for a couple of days so I am sure the whole of England will come to a halt....see what you are missing!! Keep up the reports as the make fasinating reading. Pete
