You just never think it will have to you. Just before I start a partial unpack I completed a test full pack yesterday just to make sure everything went in...<br />Waiting to hear about a possible lift in a passing container ship. Will keep you posted...<br />Derek - thank you very much for continuing to look after the motorbike. I'm looking forward to riding (and driving) when I get back home. I've been walking almost everwhere for the past 8 months.Jim McIntoshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14141176330467225860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-242546386237792664.post-33485909323474471472012-05-09T11:49:44.655+02:002012-05-09T11:49:44.655+02:00Dang Jim that's a pain, although probably not ...Dang Jim that's a pain, although probably not unexpected eh?

I'm not planning in going very far until early September, so am happy to continue looking after your motorbike for you until your back in town. Love the concept of hitch-hicking a passing ship though… although standing on a cliff top with your thumb out could wear mighty thin after a little while ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01351999809707689763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-242546386237792664.post-46779044654066001822012-05-08T11:22:20.313+02:002012-05-08T11:22:20.313+02:00Thank you Kate, Cooking was a great success - pea ...Thank you Kate, Cooking was a great success - pea and carrot soup and mushroom and red pepper pizza (with a home made bread base).Jim McIntoshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14141176330467225860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-242546386237792664.post-56513636798241519022012-05-04T21:10:50.850+02:002012-05-04T21:10:50.850+02:00I hope you have enjoyed your Botanising on Tristan...I hope you have enjoyed your Botanising on Tristan, Sorry you missed the boat back so to speak. Things take a long time to catch up in the South Atlantic. I was taken off a flight home from the Falklands on Ascension due to being a bit unwell. I asked when the next plane home was, 5 days time! Eeek I first though but then made use of the 3 days I had when feeling up to it to explore.... green turtles, endemic plants etc. I hope you can find something to fill the 6 weeks and that your travel plans from SA aren't too scuppered! Hope the cooking is a success!Kate Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11724764037123707253noreply@blogger.com
