... from holiday, having successfully avoided all forms of internet-based communication for 23 days. In fact, mostly completely free of any form of telecommunication. All vestiges of incipient RSI have vanished. Incidentally there is no way I'm going to undo the good work by trawling back through LJ. Please tell me anything I've missed, or posts you'd like me to read? I've screened comments by default.

I have heard about Mike - but haven't been told how it happened.

Mongolia was everything we hoped it would be. No lasting sickness or injury incurred, not even when I fell off a suddenly horizontal horse into a freezing glacial stream during a hailstorm. We kept a journal throughout, and I was thinking of maybe transcribing it, mostly because both sets of handwriting are pretty dire and after a while I might not be able to remember what I wrote, let alone Simon. However, it's factual and personal rather than a piece of Great Travel Writing; very much 'wot we did on our holidays'.

[Edited to add - will unscreen anything that isn't confidential/private.]

Are you going to Tim's film do? Thinking of coming up that weekend. In fact, thinking of trying to do a Mongolia fillum (souped up slideshow!)

Go go souped up slideshow!

Can't make it to the film challenge, but would be very interested in seeing said film and hearing all about your holidays if you fancied meeting up whilst you're around. You're more than welcome to pop in, or we can arrange to meet up somewhere else if that's easier (although we'll have to work around Izzy to a degree when sorting out where).

We're coming up by train so would be v difficult to make it out to your house, unfortunately. We're staying with Rob and Cam and around until mid-afternoon on Sunday - unless they need to sling us out or whatever! Maybe lunch, if you're free and mobile.

Ack - we're now committed to entertaining [livejournal.com profile] garethd here for Sunday lunch so are now stuck at home then. We're not really in a position to eat out atm anyway, tbh. If the weather's okay maybe we could have a wander around the park on Saturday afternoon? Just a thought.
