Re: where is

He was planning to head off down to Cornwall at the beginning of the week, not sure if he's still there though. I'll give him a call tonight and try and find out where he is.

Re: where is

BTW if anyone is wondering where Gill has gone ... she's eloped with boddie .................................. nah not really (i'm so going to get my butt kicked when she sees that )

in actual fact she's in madagascar, she will be back in the country at the end of next week I think and presumably back on line shortly after that

Re: where is

There's a rather nice virtual tour of Madagascar for those whose geography is iffy:
Conservation International - Explore Madagascar - Take a Virtual Tour of Madagascar
Lemurs.us summarises all the lemurs and relatives, and the threats to their existence.
Some people have suggested that increased tourism will make matters worse but -
Guardian Unlimited | Weekend | Melanie McGrath reports on Madagascar's threatened lemurs - others think that the tourist industry can be controlled to the benefit of conservation.
