Firstly, No Andrew is it not me with your DVDs. Secondly, what a fabulous experience you guys have had but it is good to have you back at Alcoa Karen. The journals have been excelent and entertained my mum in the mornings whilst waiting for the kids to get up, when's the book coming out? By the way Andrew - shave the breard off, or was you trying for a George Micheal look so we could do "Wake me up before you Go Go"!

See you soon...

Hi,
Just to say that as your sojourn comes to an end I shall miss your epic journal entries. Beautifully written, Bruv. There's an alternative career there I reckon. Well done.
William's very excited about meeting you. Safe journey home.

2. Never take advice from strangers about suitable places for skinny dipping.
3. Don't forget to send a postcard.

I have been intending to write to you for sometime. We all enjoy reading your journal and look forward to each one.
I am sending on a copy or three to Uncle Harry in Sheringham on a regular basis - a few at a time and he thoroughly enjoys reading them.
You are both having a wonderful time and we are very envious.
Take care, and hope to keep in touch when you return to England.
Bye for now,
Love Penny and Tony

Glad to hear that you are both still having a great time. Few to many snakes in the last journal entry for my liking, but it sounds amazing, and whilst sitting in a very cloudy Uxbridge, the idea of running away to deepest darkest Africa seems very appealing!
The safari sounds amazing, and if you are burning cds of the photos that you took, they must be fab, and I can't wait to see them.
Keep travelling safely,
Jean

Hi,
Enjoyed the Ban Kao lak and Cowloon jounal entries, amazing story about Gustav. Great photos too. By the way, are we in credit having viewed all these photos online over the year, or do we need to set aside a weeks leave to look through all the albums when you get back? Just thought I'd ask. Its been worrying me.

Hi,
enjoyed reading your cambodia entry, sounds unforgettable. Point of fact, though. I think you'll find that Suryavarman was the bad wizard in Lord of the Rings, not a builder of temples. Bit more research next time, please.

Thanks for William's hat, mittens and Teddy. They're lovely. Card was special too.

Hi,
Just been reading your last entry where you describe being told by a friendly local about a remote hot spring suitable for skinny dipping. What if this local owns some camouflage gear and a good camera and subscribes to voyeur monthly? Had you thought of that? Add it to the list:
1. Never eat anything bigger than your head.
2. Never take advice from strangers about good areas for naturist activities.

Hey guys....what a fantastic South Island, NZ entry! I couldn't stop laughing!! I can't believe you're so jinxed! Glad none of that bad luck was following you in the Kimberley.
You probably don't want to hear that I saw hundreds of dolphins, the jet boats were running in Queenstown, it was a beautiful day in Milford Sound & I managed to get up on my heli-hike on the first attempt when I was in the South Island! Oh, but I don't have the stories to tell like you guys!!
And I think I may be able to set up our own exhibition of waterfalls...why don't we do a combined 'Sunsets & Waterfalls' exhibition? Reckon we could fill Wembley Arena with our photos together.

OK, I'll put up with hearing about your crazy exploits as I sit at my desk 19 hours a day gradually losing the will to live. I will, if pushed, admit to finding some of what you write mildly amusing. However I will not, I repeat NOT, put up with your vile pornography. Under the guise of a 'Christmas Card' you have sent me a full frontal, double nippled photo of yourself. Yes I admit to finding it slightly arousing, but that just makes it all the worse. Please desist in transmitting this disgusting material.

Hi there. So pleased that you are enjoying Australia, and all it has to offer. It seems that you are long way with spotting the Oz big 5; Kangaroo, camel, Koala, wombat and tasmanian devil??
Are you drinking yet Karen? It's coming up to the Christmas season so I am hoping the answer is yes. All those wineries to visit not to mention cold vbs.
I have just got back from 10 days in Tobago which was fantastic. Can't remember a holiday when I have done so little. Lots of sleeping in the sun and reading books with an occasional snorkel thrown in for good measure. Very relaxing, and now back fully rested for the Christmas season.
Compass is going through a bit of a rocky time - do you think I jinx these places? But generally things are quite good. Doing less travel, but enough to keep me interested. Can't be bad.
Other than that not too much to report. Cledia had a baby girl - but I have a feeling that I may have told you that already. Enza is arranging a get together, but for a wider group of people. Saw Gary recently - he seems to be doing OK, after a shakey start having left UB. Steve Tucker is doing a bit of business with Compass too. Small world isn't it. Anyway enough of my dribble - keep enjoying your trip and all the adventure.
Lots of love
Jean

Your tangent about waving on the wide open roads of the outback did not go unappreciated. As I was traveling in the Northern Territory and Western Aus with my friend and her dad we were constantly getting after her dad that he should wave. It was pretty comical. Somehow, we science-types failed to quantify and categorize the response rate and driver type though. Good work!

Thanks, Kelly. William is doing great, letting us get a few hours sleep of a night time now. We are still walking around in a zombie state but with permanent grins on our faces.
Thanks for putting his pic on the journal, Andrew. Amazing to think that less than a day old and he's already on the wibbly wobbly web.
Really enjoying the journal entries, good to hear karen is on the mend.
Love
Roger, Rachel and William.

Just to say Hi. Hope you are both ok now. I take it Andrew is going to writing a book about your adventures once you get home. Or atleast an article for the Times or Guardian!!
Congratulations to Roger and Rachel on the arrival of little William.

Hi both of you. As you know I send a print out of your journal around the office and last journal I was asked who the baby belonged to, have you really been gone that long!!!! Would you like me to clear this rumour up by telling us who is William Edward Lewis?

Hey there. Glad to hear from you both. Begining to worry that I had somehow managed to take myself off your mailing list (As Fi and John Webster managed to!) I have really enjoyed your South American adventures, and in quiet moments start hatching a plan to get out to Bolivia and Ecuador - though if I had a serious amount of time I was thinking Chile and Argentina... So much more interesting than year end and bookings of purchasing income. Are you suffering from culture shock in Australia?
Sian is coming down this weekend to visit. Simon Adam and Marcus are coming with her. I've also got an American friend staying so I think that it might be a bit of a squash in my 2 bedroomed terrace house! She's coming down as we are going out to wish Keith a farewell - though he's been living in Milan for a few weeks now. Not sure who's going - lots of names on the distribution list that I didn't recognise.
Keep enjoying your trip, and making rainy mornings in Uxbridge that much more enjoyable with your travel updates....
Jean

Hi there well this is a message to wish Karen a great Birthday for tomorrow, where ever you may be what ever you may be doing! Adrian and I are good, we went to Stratford the weekend for a bit of culture...we went to see "As you like it" and both really enjoyed it. Cathy's wedding went well even though it did rain, it was lovely to see her and Ade so happy. They went to Corsica for their honeymoon and said it was well worth a visit. My Mum is in Italy at the moment only for 10 days unfortunately. Things are good this end, happy and health,I did forget to say I am now a payroll supervisor as from 8.8.05, helps the old bank balance. Anyway have a good day, I'll catch up soon. Love Kelly

baby is now officially late (and frankly tardy). Not a good way to start in life. Will have a severe word when it arrives.

Hi there. Laughed out loud at your travel journal - not at you being sea sick you understand.... Only just caught up on the Nazca lines and the Galapagos. Sorry to hear about the hep A - though once these things have got a name it always seems a bit better - and Karen you'll be able to drink long before Christmas.....
Great to hear about the Galapagos. Did I tell you that my friend's brother runs the Charles Darwin centre? It's the only name dropping I have - so I'd be amazed if I hadn't. He's over in London at the moment - I know that because I am off to hear him do a talk on Tuesday. Apparently David bellamy will be there too, so it's a night with the stars for me.
Other than that not much to report. Keith has moved to Milan now. He's coming back for a leaving party though. Rude not to. Sian said that she might come down to London for it, I think it might partly be to escape from her newborn baby for an evening! I am still hoping that they will be moving down South in the near future, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Great to hear from you both, and great to hear that you're enjoying the adventures. Really hope you feel fully recovered soon Karen. At least you'll have a tropical illness story - no trip is complete until there is one.
Take care
Jean

Hi, so sorry to read that karen hasn't been well. Lots of love from us, hope you're feeling better soon. Although you knew this would be a year of new experiences, I bet you didn't think one of them would be having a birthday which involved no alcohol! It could have been worse, you could have been stung by a hepatitis bee, or even worse gone swimming in the hepatitis sea! Thinking of you,
Love Roger and Rachel.xx

Hi Both, still routing your journal round the office although 8 landed on Jana's desk as she was on holiday and now can't keep up, but then they did come thick and fast the other week! Pete's taking retirement at the end of October and John Wallace will be replacing him. Claire's just got back from Quala Lumpur on a 2 week holiday. Started looking at Oracle - nightmare - please hurry back!!! Take Care and continue to have a great time for the rest of your travelling. XX

Hi Guys,
It sounds like you have been having the experience that you were looking for.
The sun has finally come out in London, the weather is beautifull. I am sitting at home waiting for the plumber as I have flooded the flat below. Errol is busy selling SCC as that is his only option to screw every one and still remain in control. It has been a nightmare start to finish, I want bore you with the details, but at the moment it is very unclear how it will turn out. Chem Connect has offered $1m which I am sure Errol will accept. Not sure if I can stop him, not sure how real the offer is once they do their due diligence so we may still all be around when you get back, no rush.
All the best
Daniel

Andrew, Karen,
I can feel the excitement of moving on to Bolivia, and a hugely different culture. Can't tell you how much I envy you. Maybe for my next holiday....
Just got back from Canada, and am now locked in my office in denial about the number of emails I have awaiting me, and just reading the ones that I want to!
Canada was brilliant one of the best holidays that I have had. Lot of different adventures in 2and a half weeks. I feel completely rested, and hence the devil may care attitude towards the emails.
Didn't manage to see a bear though we did see a bear jam with everyone stopped to show us a bush that a bear was hiding behind (the barstard). Saw a Mountie though.
Got to go they're knocking on my door demanding I attend a meeting.... Look forward to the next installment -
Jean

Well you definately have a budding a career ahead of you as a travel writer when you get back! We were laughing lots at your mining helmet debacle. Have decided that when our baby is born next month we'll probably hold one of those "festivals of lactating mothers" here in Worlingworth. Can't do any harm.
Read with interest your confessions of narcotics use and have passed then on to my colleagues in the drugs and serious crime unit.
Keep the journal entries coming.
(Will show Mum where the caps lock key is next time i'm over there.)
Love
Rog.

Actually, I'm sorry to see the demise of the beard. You looked like a cross between The Master from Dr Who and Gandalf from Lord of the Rings. Very fetching.

hello you two words fail us you seem to be having a really great time. You are so lucky to be able to experience this.
Wedding day now over but what a so unforgettable one it just went so very quick Mints speech was just great so looking forward to the video. Adam brought along his new girlfriend Emma, who is very nice. Had Ade and Lee looking more than once. Ade as usual was showing everyone his moves on the dance floor - after a few dances the sweat was dripping off him, he was the star of the night by far!!
Speak Laterxxx

Just popped around to Kellys and have seen your photos and read your stories and now I want to do something too!!! Crikey that water slide looked painful to me, infact your seem to be inflicting a lot of pain on yourselves, water slides, mules, studying witchcraft. I know how you feel about the whales, we paid $$$ in Caribean to see them, captain all excited cause they had been seen every day previous for the last few weeks, did we see any, not a bloody fin!!! Have fun. Px

Take care all

Anyway it is great to see you having such a fab time whilst we are still chipping away in the UK.
Can I suggest that you quit whilst your ahead on the betting and save the cash to buy the UB crowd a beer on your return!!
Keep in touch and of course keep smiling!

I wish I had opened a book on how long it would take before you started to sport that stupid goatie. The next bet is how long before Karen tells you to shave it off!
Apart from that, great pictures and interesting log.

Hi Both, well we had a lovely trip to Canterbury. We were planning to go to London to see Lauren in August but after the bombings we have decided to leave it a while, as Adrian would like to lots of sight seeing things while we were there. So looks like a trip to get Cathy's wedding present and perhaps Ironbridge. I enjoyed flying over the Grand Canyon with Phil back in 2001, but so impressed we fell asleep on the return journey or perhaps that was the fumes of the little plane. Love Kelly x

Hi Guys,
Well this 'trip' (if you can call it that - more of an adventure i'd say..) looks like it's sizing up to be pretty cool!
The Grand Canyon looks everybit as impressive as advertised, although it sounds like the temperature is rather high!! Just started raining here...(that'll involve putting the hood up on the car then....damn!)
Great journal, I will look on with interest...
James
(car's running great! :-)

I must go down to the sea again,
Back to the sea and sky,
I left my pants and socks there,
I wonder if they're dry.
Grand Canyon looked very grand.
Also looked as if some sort of hat might be in order.

Well, its is rather quiet around here in Bellingham without you two. Great travel journal, love reading it. Great to hear from Pam and other family members too. We have our first rain day. We'll try and send some to Arizona. Aparently they opened schools and other public places with air conditioning for people on the street. Keep out of the sun! lots of love, Christa

Karen and Andrew,
Have only just managed to get on the internet and spend some time looking at your site. It's fantastic - so much more convenient than a poste restante! I thought you were leaving on the 6th of July, and so toasted you both then, well the thought was there even if the timing wasn't. So far so good then... I hope it's living up to all your expectations and more.
I am setting off for my holidays next friday (7 days and 8 hours to go). I am off to Vancouver but hoping for more success in the whale dept than you both had.
Other than that not much to report. Still bumping into Nigel every now and then here at Compass, and still speaking to Fi on an almost daily basis! I am sure that you heard that Enza had her baby - Joseph Arthur - and I hope to meet him on Sunday.
Speak to you both soon again I'm sure.
Jean
