Happy Birhday Mike. Funny to think you were only 28 when we last saw you. Not long now so make the most of the last few days.We are all looking forward to having you back; no doubt Villa's continuing success will help to assuage the pain of having to earn a living again. Take care. |

HAPPY B-DAY, MIKE! Hope you have a good 'un, old man. |

Hi Mike, came across your journal whilst occupying myself on the internet during a particularly boring school holiday!!!! I haven't laughed this much in ages. You seem to be having the time of your life. Take care and my bro Ste says hi! Ali |

Having read the latest journal (Bradman, balls...)Mother's getting a bit concerned about the deterioration in your language and also the negative references to the Welsh. What happened to the years of brainwashing?? And what happened to the 7 year old who insisted on washing his hands in the cistern in the toilet at Wembley as there was no washbasin? No showers for several days? What's going on???? And you didn't have enough musical ability to get into the junior school choir or have violin lessons as you couldn't hit 'middle C'!!! Roll on 26th Jan - can't cope with all these changes. Love Mum |

Hola Mike! I wasn´t very willing to work today and I´ve gone through you website for several hours... Each day I am more jealous of you... Last summer I went to southern China and the north of Vietnam, though probably I remember with more pleasure the train trip from Sapa to Vietnam... Enjoy travelling around Australia with your great red car!!
Merry Christmas and see you soon
Take care |

Hi Mike. Good to catch up with you and glad to know that this trip is not all pleasure...steel into a hot furnace sounds grim! Pictures make us all feel very jealous most notably the motor home.
Have an enjoyable festive season...eat drink and be merry for tomorrow you return to the UK.
See you before long. |

I second (third?) the book request! |

Mike,
I have to be honest I hate you! Been looking through the pictures and makes me depressed realising we live in this crap hole called the UK. Will be making the pilgrimmage to OZ next summer I think. Then whether I come back is anyones guess!! Hopefully you will not have let me down and done copious amounts of surfing out there! Hope your good mate and hopefully see you when you get back! Tom |

Hello young Ashman,
you seem to have had, and still having, a wonderful time. Have a good Christmas and New Year - the Rhydspence will not be the same without you on the 28th but we will drink a toast to your good health and to your return to the freezing conditions of Villa Park in January |

Hello there
Glad you are well and on the road again. Really really love your pictures of Malaysia, Australia and in fact almost all of them. You have got very good eyes. Take care and may your guardian angels be with you all the times.
Merry Christmas

Now then Mike. I am soon starting a petition, we need a book written by you, about your travels, illnesses, triumphs, failures and the hat (hey, you can even write a chapter about the toughest part of your year away...writing a book). Glad you are heading to Oz, have a good one mate!! |

I agree with Kieran, you should really write a book. All the way through your trip, you have let us all experience your travels through your amazing writing skills. Thanks!! Looking forward to you getting to Oz and seeing what you have to write about your travels in 'the land downunder'!!You are the next Bill Bryson. See you soon, Beth |

I accidentally clicked on your website. For some reason, I was looking for the spelling of Thank you in German and came to your website! Got lost in awe from your beautiful, spectacular pictures of your travels in Southeast Asia! The cultures are different there! Amazingly breathtaking pictures in Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand! I am not a member of traveljournals.net but I am with virtualtourist.com. Enjoy all your trips and stay healthy all the time! Take care and I will see all your pictures and subscribe to your travels! Travel when you are young! It's an experience you carry all the time to share with your children, grandchildren...It's a wonderful world. We just have to protect it and each other! |

Hey Mike! Well, I am glad we have started to hear updates again from you. Illness sounded bloody awful mate but with your flair for creative writing you made it quite an entertaining tale (sorry!). Good luck with the rest of your travels matey and keep us up to date when runaway buses and tropical diseases permit. And I am not joking, you need to write a book mate of your journey, could be bloody funny! Cheers
Kieran |

Hey Dude,
Looking forward to catching up with you next week, do I need to bring my hat to fit in on the SE Asia travelling thing? |

What a life!!!I envy your freedom. I was born in Malaysia, worked in Singapore, travelled to Australia, New Zealand and met my husband in Rotorua.Travelled with him to Nepal, Bali,Paris,England until I got pregnant with our 1st child that we moved to live in England. We have a boy and a girl.I suffer every now and then with serious travel bugs. I found a lot of comfort Looking at your pictures from various places and reading your journal quench my thirst for backpacking to some extend. Just like to say you have a tremendous life, treasure it.I hope my next life will be equally fulfilling and interesting as yours. All the best. |
