<p><font size="1">Where have the last 8 months gone?&nbsp; That was when Lois showed me a website that she had visited a couple of times to laugh at the exploits of crazy people undertaking crazy journeys with the intention of raising money for charity and experiencing a 'holiday' like no other!&nbsp; After a short discussion we thought.....why not let's give it a go!</font></p><p><font size="1">So the entry fee was paid, return flights booked and 3 weeks off work planned for April 2013!&nbsp; We can't wait!</font></p><p><font size="1">All of a sudden it is now January 2013 and what have we done in preparation for this adventure...... The short answer is 'not alot'!&nbsp; But with less than 3 months to go we are now planning our preparation for our departure from London on the 2nd April!&nbsp; Well that is all for now, but the plan is to keep this updated!</font></p><p><font size="1">&nbsp;</font></p><p><font size="1">Finally, if anyone is out there who has completed the Cochin to Shillong leg before, Top Tips are welcomed!</font></p><p><font size="1">&nbsp;</font></p><p><font size="1">Cheers, John and Lois </font></p><p><img alt="Wink" border="0" src="editor2/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-wink.gif" title="Wink" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p>
