LOL nicely done - sounds like the car did you proud!

4 foot pot holes? ouch.

I gotta say it, i'd be terrified by Russian police - they do carry assault rifles don't they?

Bring us back a stick of rock mate! :P

Theres like 4 different types of police in russia, we mainly enountered the traffic filth. Usually alright, although pretty terrible for demanding bribes, especially in the east. Lots of police/kids brandishing AK47s on the borders though.

In Beijing now, 12 hour bus journey in a 'sleeper' bus, how that got through advertising regulations I'll never know.. Got here 4am this morning with nowhere to sleep but managed to find somewhere in the end. Otherwise we'd have joined everyone else sleeping on the street.

Needless to say, this place is massive. We've walked so far away from our hostel i'm unsure we'll ever get back. Heading to the forbidden city like any proper tourist should. Flight home on monday maybe? Don't really know :mellow:

Hope you get back by next year then.

We're planning a road trip type thing. Camping near tenby. Well west and up a bit, if your interested. Be sometime in spring. Maybe marchish.

Ride porthcawl first half of the day, then tenby until late. Then camp, ride carmarthen, haverfordwest, and some other random places.

'cos you haven't come to my house to pick your's up yet? But yeah, mine still isn't here yet. Interesting how someone can drive to Mongolia in a haggard old Ford Fiesta, party loads, have a really good time, then go to *forgets where Tom was last*, yet someone can't put a DVD in an envelope and post it to OBM-ville.

Ah well...

party loads

:mellow: wouldn't quite call it that :P 2 parties in a month is a pretty poor show really.

Anyway, I've been home less than 48 hours (spent a few nights in cardiff with my gf) for which time i've had a rancid cold. So even though I normally wouldnt be going outside today, I will do especially for you. PM me your address.

cheers, this nice to be back (apart from the illness and shite weather..)

theres some photos up on http://www.tenbymongols.co.uk, nothing too exciting i'm afraid, mainly due to there not being very many exciting things to take photos of.

a couple that didnt make it to the gallery.

i dont remember this being taken..
