... could not find our way to the village church so we stopped to ask directions from an elderly woman who was laying out a bric-a-brac stall outside her cottage. As Colin chatted to her, I realised that some of the photos she had taped to the front of the trestle table where strangely familiar. <br><br> "Are you collecting for Cambodia by any chance?", I asked. "Yes", was the not altogether unexpected reply "My son runs a charity in Siem Reap ...

... is not really a speed demon, but the slower pace suits us fine as we are in no hurry... it also conserves fuel which is important considering the distance we will be covering over the next few months. So we don't really go faster than 50 mile/hr (80km/h for the aussies at home) and we avoid the motorways as there generally is ...

... town!!<br><br>Nearly forgot when we were driving through Newton Abbot on the way to the camp site, i saw a sign on the front of a small cottage it read "Charles Dickens parents lived here" Now here is some homework for you, is it the Charles Dickens of "A Christmas Carol" fame?

My teenage boys were beaten up outside out family caravan by 5 boys, who followed my boys back to our caravan after a night out in the onsite club. These boys were not staying on the site but were allowed access into the club without a pass. They hung about the club looking for trouble. <br>My boys were jumped on causing them injuries. Luckly my niece, who was with them, managed to get away in one peice ...

... the departure time of our coach wrong and we left the house a little bit late. Shirls digged out her organisation skills and so we found out that the coach was going to stop near Sowton Industrial Estate as well as the busstation. We decided to go there as the journey wouldnt be as long and the departure time would be later. We waited and waited but no coach showed up. After phoning Stage Coach again we found out the coach was delayed (!) and that we had to wait ...

... moving up and are competing against teams with far more resources. After taking a 1-nil (football speak) lead, the locals gave up two only to score in the 88th minute to earn a draw (more football speak).
