Sorry for the bleakness of the updates over the past couple of weeks, but things have just all gone a bit crazy and fast. However I’ve finally found some time, and as its a couple of days before home time, this will be the final one.

So firstly …..
PHOTO UPDATE - lots of new photos from Russia, Belarus and Ukraine from the past 2 weeks.

So this is gonna be a brief sitcatto rundown of events:

Shanghai to Bejing. Bejing was “more chinesy” if that makes sense. Saw the forbidden city which was both breathtaking and awe inspiring.

Harbin for one night - a horrible dirty north chinese city. Nothing really worth seeing. Read more »

New photos from Bejing and Forbidden City, and a weeks worth of Russia and the train, now in the Gallery.

Sorry for lack of updates recently, but will update sometime soon. We are all safe and sound!

So I’m going to start this update with a small apology - and that is to my beer buying readers who have donated beers over the past month. Although many a beer have been consumed, it seems that the photos of us drinking them haven’t quite materialised and as such it may seem as though the money you donated hasn’t quite reached our parched lips. To combat this thought however, I am going to use the next post as a beer buying extravaganza, so keep your eyes peeled later in the week for the photos of your beers being drank in various forms.

So a big thankyou to, in order of how long theyv’e been waiting: Read more »

BEER BOUGHT - Thanks a ton Gaz, Fliss and I had this beer after I’d just played footy for an hour, and Fliss had just watched me and Mat run past some 10yr olds thinking we were the next England captains. Cold beer mmmmmm.

PHOTO UPDATE - New photos from Shanghai in the China section of the gallery.

And so another week in Shanghai has passed us by in a flurry of drinking, sight seeing, relaxing and getting a taste of life in this overloaded city. We’ve cajoled, we’ve laughed, we’ve been lazy but most of all we’ve had some fun.

We last left you safe in the hands of Mats flat with a KFC in tow, and so our next story telling time begins by starting where we ended up, with a big helping of food. With Mat in school, Fliss, Haze and I headed down to Shanghai City proper and met up with 2 of Mats friends for a spot of lunch. Read more »

PHOTO UPDATE - New photos from Halong Bay in Vietnam, as well as some from Mats school in Shanghai and a night out in a club called Velus where we painted the town red.

BEER BOUGHT - Thanks Mat, well you were there when you bought us them hehe.

Welcome back my fellow dedicated following - where did we last go our seperate ways? Ah yes, it was as we were about to board the 14hr sleeper bus, heading North through Vietnam, to the captial of Hanoi. Well once again we have a lot of time and distance to cover, so I would suggest you get some biccies, have a cup of tea in hand, and relax into the fairy tell land of South East Asia. Read more »
