Greetings from neils sidekick
Hi tony: mr reardon wants to know where you were for that german o level exam
Hi og: listen, i´m sure you haven´t changed in the slightest either. How is the gearbox on your dads sierra these days?
Hi neils family: i have to admit that annoying as he can be (as in one-upmanship, always having the last word, twitching all the time and talking in his sleep), he has been an absolute star on this trip. His knees have held out, his outfit has improved in a big way, his stamina is superb and his map-reading has saved the odd detour now and then. I have learned the hard way to keep a wide berth when he is on one of his no hands sprees, but hey, whats a few scuffs between friends.
We are well over half way and i am very confident of a happy end. I thought i might be dragging neil along with me, but in fact when i had my borat poisening experience, it was him chaperoning me home.
What a mate.
Most of them have been due to exhaustion making anything seem funny, some have been due to Ben's brother Jan's comments about events of 20 years ago, which absolutely destroyed us and had us crying with laughter!, and many reliving funny moments from the past!
Ben's a pretty fine fellow to be around , and I have to say thanks very much for putting this whole thing together and allowing me to join him. It has been a real pleasure !
Keep up the good work !
We´ll be back to bickering again very soon
