Surprise!

Hello all from London! We ended up jumping straight onto the plane (a very dodgy Russian Tupolev) because the train would have been cutting it a bit too fine for getting back in time and going via China looked expensive. It's very odd to be back - only five days ago I was staring at a Gobi sunset and toasting the locals with vodka shots... The trip finished with a really nice meal in UB with the Mongol Mini and Tom and Jenny who, like us left yesterday to drive back to Britain.

Looking forward to seeing you all very soon and catching up properly, I'm afraid we didn't even have time to catch the post in UB to send the postcards so they're going to have to be hand-delivered.
