Well I survived!!

[lobs211]

Ha ha made it back from the jungle without being kidnapped!

I wanna lie and say how great it was but it wasnt 😞 

So I will just say the good bits!

Met some lovely people, strong women doin it so hard

Went to 2 orphanages OMG Gorgeous kids, wanted to bring em all back!

Saw some beautiful country and ate weird but (some) nice food

Had a crack at BBQ grasshoppers LOL

Great weather and did some good shopping for the kids - had to leave my Aussie clothes & shoes there, couldnt fit it all in, ha ha

Burma was scary, I didnt like it

Laos was good, very interesting

Thailand (Chiang Mai) up North I loved, VERY different from Phuket

All in all was interesting and Im glad I went but I wont ever do it again 🙂

Wow, long time ago!

Hope all is going well now Freddie.

I rarely come here now, not much ebay shopping or bidding any more, no time needed to wait between bids, also hard to find now that it has been moved.

Hope Lobs is enjoying her time too!

Just  to let everyone know that one of our posters, Gil(Kengillard) passed away a couple of months ago

Hi Nic, that's sad news she was a poster here for a long time -

I remember she had a sick hubby - Thanks for letting us know-

I hope you are doing well?

[tasfleur]

That is so very sad.  I did not know her very well but we did email from time to time over the years to keep in touch and say hello.

My heart goes out to her family.

Thanks Nic.

Thats sad-i can remember Gilly from the old days.....

Ps-bet you are still spoiling those grandies as they grow up.

[imastawka]

I remember Gilly from years ago, although we didn't have much interaction.

I'm sad to hear of her passing.

It’s not such a bad idea to bump old threads

[freddie*rooster]

Can we talk football on this thread?

I predict a Rooster's grand final

Haha, I asked my grandson who won and he said "the chickens"
