I could probably whip you up some funky custom made flannelette pj bottoms instead. Let me know. I have to turn down the offer for the overland track, both boys will be full time at school next year and I am still looking for a happy place in regards to my medication levels. I can do it with you in spirit and song. What a fan-bloody-tastic effort to reach the halfway mark. Pat on your backs from us in Tassie. Love Stace and boys Ps Jodie and Nigel are having a baby, due May/June 2008 I get to watch and laugh from the sideline. Patchwork rugby jumpers, what a wonderful world it was back then.

Simon does not need encouraging. Tomato sauce poured over french fries does not constitute vegie intake...surely? You ARE a doctor afterall! Very jealous of white sandy beaches and the Virgin Islands. Do think of us ... in the rain battling gravel roads and uphills! Am I supposed to be enjoying this?? Love to Steve Jen xx Ruth!

Dialup is certainly better than this Satelite link (or so it seems) that we´re on. Can you believe Peru was much better than Argentina on the internet front! Planning to come out and visit you soon after we get back, lots to catch up on. By the way, we´re upgrading to motorcycles for the next trip like this! ;-) Hey Tony, great to hear from you.

I think we wore skivvies with them as well as sandshoes. We WERE style icons afterall! Perhaps your mum could make us some more patchwork rugby jumpers? Please tell Paddles I love her too and give her a piece of cake from me. Did you get my email re Overland Track?

Did I wear them with my pixie boots? Maybe I had my care Bear t-shirt on underneath. Don't forget that I had the spike of the century. Paddles sends her love to you.

Plums this must be the longest relationship you have ever had, and certainly the longest you have concentrated on a single goal in a very long time. I am impressed with you both what an adventure - I trust you are getting some good material for the book if not then this blog will certainly remind you, it has been a bloody good read, even on 56k i suspect you are getting better speeds on your travels lol... Proud to know you - keep going - carpe diem or as we in the Motorcycle world say <b>"There is no meaning of life just the journey; bikes aren't about where you’re going, they are about making the most of how you get there."
