It’s my last day in Melbourne and I am leaving on a big high. England won three gold medals on the track last night and I finally got to hear ‘Land of hope and glory’ (no thanks to Channel 9). It was just like being at the last night of the proms!
I also got to meet the decathlon champion Englishman Dean Macey and he gave me a high five in the tunnel after his lap of honour. Earlier in the night I sat with the father of the English bronze medallist in the 10,000m and shared his agony and then ecstasy (never had such a big hug from a man!).
I posted a comment on the BBC Commonwealth games site and got a whole heap of traffic to this site. It’s a good tip to try and get one way links from popular web sites as search engines like this.
I’ve had an awesome time here and will miss Melbourne and the atmosphere around the games. Tomorrow I’ll be waking up in Singapore and the second part of my Southeast Asian adventure will begin. Rock on!

Hi . . . hello
Greetings from the Principality of Wales.
Just stumled onto your website . . . as a result of a search for South East Asis + Internet Marketing.
I must confess I am fascinated by your exciting venture - Wow . . . The Travellers Notebook. If only I could emberk on such a tour.
Trouble is I’m on the wrong side of 65 . . . and suffering bad health. But it’s nice to dream.
How much time is left on your adventure.
You take care now . . . Enjoy and allow me to wish you all the best.
Be seeing you
David.

PS. Good luck in Singapore. I understand there are many “Hot Shot” Internet Marketers in the tiny country of Singapore. Strange, but true that there are so many. I really don’t know anyone here in Wales that is into Internet Marketing.
Good Luck . . .

Thanks David, the venture has about three more months to run and I’ll be back in the UK to enjoy our sunny summer!
Hope you get yourself better soon.
