Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. (If he will be possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll I thankful, bye friend).

Hi Mark, Good to hear that you survived the shark attack. We are all praying that the bungee jump does not finish you off, remember you did not get round to writing your Will! We are all pleased to hear that you and Tree are having a wonderful time and the mini- break of 6 months is off to a flying start.
It is not raining in England,in fact we are experiencing a heat wave...yeh, yeh. I'll purchase a few bottles of South African wine and that'll be the closest I'll get to South Africa. The children are missing you and will be sending a few emails. Sounds like you are having a superb time and Mum and Dad want daily updates on your blog, still regard you as the baby. Stick to what Big Brother tells you, stay off the wine before attacking any more sharks,and no more embarrassing vomitting. Here's hoping your next challenge on the world tour is more successful. Photo's terrific, brill blog , Big Brother looks forward to more...

Hi you two, We are following you closely on your travels. Big Brother keeps giving us an update on everything. Sounds amazing! Go easy on the wine before your bungee jump. The pics are good of you both. It doesn't seem that you are so far away when we can keep in touch like this. Everything is just as exciting here as when you left. Nan sends her love, as we do. Take care

Hi Mark,I take it all back re: the internet being nonsense, you keeping us up to speed with Mark and Trees big adventure is fantastic, the pictures are amazing,"hats off to technology"Mr & Mrs and baby digger are really envious of your visit to the vineyard,all that scrumptuous cape wine and delicious fromage,what a life! Did you really bungee jump from that bridge? and the shark thing suprises me, remember Salou, you would"nt dip your toes in for fear of those beasts. I am tracking your journey,by now you shoud be on your way to Perth and in four months time, The thrifties (Paul and Julie) will be joining you, ( more chance of Hypia scoring at the right end) Anyway look after yourselves and if you get tired of all that Sushi and pretentious food, there is allways the Yew Tree when you grt home! All the best brother DIGGER

Wow! Tree and Marks six month adventure sounds awesome! You’ve packed so much in already! South Africa sounds fantastic. The ascent of Table Mountain, whale spotting and reenacting "JAWS", cool! Not entirely sure about the bungee jumping though. I can’t believe you both just went for it "cool as cucumbers", come on, no last minute jitters? I think the view from the top might have put me off not to mention the thought of breaking a few bones! Obviously you’ve both live to tell the tale so no worries on that score.

Is there a local Ladbrokes in the vicinity? Breaking news, the odds of Mr and Mrs Thrifty (thanks Digger!) joining you at some stage of your adventure now stand at 25/1. Worth a flutter don’t you think? I’ll check the mattress before making any definite travel arrangements.

Just checked your itinerary and it looks like your heading for Perth so have a safe journey. We are looking forward your next installment..

Julie, where’s our suitcases?
