Hi Guys, Happy New Year. Now
I know someone has to replace
me as ‘The Butler’ on this
trip, but wearing your wife’s
clothes and taking her passport
is just taking it tooooooo
far!!! I went dinghy sailing
today, it’s the clubs ‘chilly
willy’ opener for the new
season - it was cold in Kent so
I felt for the three of you.
Still, I managed to stay
upright (no capsizes) and hope
you all manage the same! Hope
you get going soon and good
luck. [Simon Middleton]

Hi Dad (timmy),
I've finally found the blog
sight! Went up to Big Ben last
night to see in the New Year -
froze our b*ll*cks off, but it
was great. Hope you're all
getting on swimmingly (so to
speak!). Happy New Year to all
of you mad dogs and
englishmen.
Loads of love, [Amy x] |

Hey daddyman, i tried
(unsuccesfully i might add) to
add to the email a picture of
me all dressed up as a bumbley
bee for new years gold face and
all (i had the best timey!!!)
however due to my technological
incompetance the mission was
unsuccessful! don't go
following suit - i have
complete faith in the 3 of you!
had another driving lesson
today - no crashes - hooray!
missing you lots daddyola keep
expecting to see you when i
return home but to no avail! i
hope that the rain has stopped
for you - you little rays of
sunshiney! happy new year to
all of you lots of love

Cornwall Carters to the
Falklands - Dear Tim, Richie
and Chris, Thought I had better e mail
as everyone else sems to be and
I don't want to look like a bad
wife!! We are all well here -
its still cold so have been
able to do some work outside.
Had lunch with Aunt Phll in St.
Ives yesterday - my reward is
in heaven I know. A couple more
people have pledged money so I
will add them to the list.
Seeing the Barkers tomorrow for
a walk and then back here for
food - then Christmas really
will be over and the tree can
come down. Good to see pictures
of you lot though the ration
pile looks challenging! Speak
again soon lots of love

Timmy - from the photos you
have obviously been doing some
serious eating in preparation
so its a case of - 'come on the
big fella' - or you may
remember a certain trial on
Lundy where you could now be
mistaken for Steveo's lady love
!!!! Best of luck guys I have
to say with my paddling skills
I am in the right place, 1000+
miles from any water.

Hi guys,
Cable &
Wireless are
delighted to support you
attempting a circumnavigation
of the Falklands in your
kayaks. The Falkland Islands is
a challenging area for those on
the water, therefore your
commitment to the event in
order to raise money for three
very important charities is
commendable. We all wish you
luck and success and look
forward to monitoring your
progress over the next 6 weeks.
With best wishes, [Alison
Thorogood] |
|
Hope you guys
manage to get away on time. The
moment has come, as it is said.
Everyone home here is rooting
for you, and I personally wish
you a safe, fun, adventurous
and life enhancing trip. Seeing
Tim's yellow peril reminds me
of my previous sea boat and I
smile at the immense pleasure
(and sometimes fear) that comes
from trips such as these. Just
remember, if you or your techno
support sends me it (text or
photos), it will appear on this
site, so try and keep us all
amused, okay? The VERY BEST of
everything lads, [Colin O] |
|
Hey Dad, Just seen
the countdown on the site 20
minutes to go-so exciting! Hope
you have a great time. It looks
amazing. I especially liked the
penguins and I don't think you
should eat any of them however
bad the ration packs get.
Anyway I better get back to
looking like I'm doing some
work. Lots of love and good
luck to all of you. [Old Bean
xxx (Joanna Carter)] |

Hi Tim (+team).
Just sitting at home with a
virus and checked the website
to see you are away in 15
minutes!! Best of luck, hope
all goes well and have a great
time. The scared paddler of
Brownsea, [Neil Whiting] |
| 8th |
Hi Ho Yer All, The boot is
now on the other foot and I am
hoping to be amused by some
witty ditty happenings on your
trip - so please do not be
bashful tell us as it is!!
Looking at the
photos it takes me back - I was
out there in 1977 and also
circumnavigated - in something
a little bigger than a plastic
kayak. I think you are in for a
great adventure and I wish you
luck. [Sandy]
|

Dear 3 mad paddlers, so this
is one of the ways of avoiding
the coldest start to the year
for 20 years. Minus 12C on
Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor. I
won't tell you what it has done
to our loo macerators, but from
previous episodes, I'm sure
Richy can guess. Yuck! However,
with true British grit, we are
weathering the icy cold and all
other hardships.
luv
[Mum/Gilly x]

Hey there lads. Hope
everything is going swimmingly
(well not exactly). England has
finally thawed out and the rain
has started - now we have a
proper English Winter! Hope the
weather is good for you and the
penguins. Good luck and enjoy
and I look forward to reading
all about your
adventures...........P.S Lily

Hope all is going
well and warmer than freezing
Cornwall. We have had over a
week of minus 8 and that's just
inside the house!! (only
joking) However rain is
forecast tonight so its back to
status quo soon. Have been to
see your Mum and Dad today Tim
and took lunch - didn't get
there quite as soon as planned
as had a flat tyre - luckily at
home so Pete helped me. Mum and
Dad are well - we had lunch and
a walk round STover lake. Also
chatted to Wendy who rang while
I was there - she has been
poorly with flu thing but is
feeling better amd looking
forward to her trip to the UK.
Last night all the neighbours
came round for roast lamb and a
million veg so we raised a
glass or two to you lot. Phoebe
has been working hard - has a
philosophy exam on Tuesday.
Hamish came with me today which
was good fun - otherwise still
horizontal. Hope you are all
well fit and warm in your nice
new fleeces and will mail again
soon. lots of love [Footy] |

Message as
follows from Tims Litte brother
and family in NZ....Hi Guys,
following your progress every
day, google maps keeps on
offering directions to get to
you but I’m not really that
keen even though I suppose
we’re closer than most. Really
envy you the adventure - just
not this one! I cant be the
only one thinking I should do
better with my own outlook.
Wish you all the best all the
way round even if Tim capsized
me (aged 11) in the river Teign
in the canoe he made in
woodwork (he also saved me a
few years later in the river
Avon!). Will keep watching till
you are there! Love [Pete. Jac,
Tom and Lulu]

Hi Chris love, glad to hear
that all is going well, looking
forward to flying out to meet
you next month, (missing you
loads) everything is fine here,
pat & jim send their love
and have made a donation for
your charity, the lads from
lydd camp are following your
progress and have pledged on
the web site, they all send
best wishes and i am to let you
know they are all supporting
you 100% (even though they
think you are a bit insane (in
a nice way)). enjoy yourself,
have fun and will see you all
soon. Love you and i am
very proud of you [Jacqueline

Hi Tim and Mates, Happy New
Year,and what a novel way to
start it to be sure! Our
heartiest hurrahs to all of you
for an enjoyable and successful
trip around the Malvinas from
the depths of sleepy, decidedly
unadventurous Cheam in Surrey.
Have navigated your excellent
website with ease,thanx for
making it so simple! Good luck
with your own,rather more
chilly and demanding
navigations, will be keeping up
with your progress over the
coming weeks. Godspeed, with
fondest memories of a Fab
Feastfest chez Carter not long
ago! [Cliff and Teresa
Fulker]

Hi Richy and the other 2 men
in a boat. We're watching that
little red line getting longer
and longer, hurrah. Can't say
that life here is as exciting
as your's. As I can't get into
the garden cos' of pouring
rain, what better to do than
write to you guys? More wedding
plans at the weekend, including
a practice with Kath and the
hair and make-up lady, invites
to print and first chat with
our friend John, who will be
taking the ceremony on the day.
The moles are trying as hard as
possible to ruin the grass
where the marquee is going, but
I'm sure we can all have a
'stamping mole hills down'
party before May. Evie has had
bronchiolitis but is improving
greatly, Jo is back at
work(grunt), Nigel has
sinusitis(vereeeeeeee painful).
Grandma is fretting cos' she
doesn't want to be modern and
use eco-bulbs for her lights
and they don't sell 150 watt
bulbs anymore-amazed she hasn't
caused a fire with such a
strong wattage!
luv
[Mumsie xx]

Hi kayakers, Great
to see the pictures & know
you're doing well. So far so
good! We Barkers had a great
day with Carter family, but
missed you Tim.... Take care
& good luck, love, [Beth

Hello lads,
Geoff here (the short, bald one
who usually gets a bout of
Tourettes whilst climbing with
Tim and Richy...........oh and
did meet Chris briefly once
whilst drinking beer in a tent
in Cornwall). Just wanted to
wish you guys well and hope
things are going too plan. I
have been monitoring your
progress on Google earth and
keep having massive jealousy
attacks over your adventure
every time I find myself
crawling to and fro work along
the A27 in the rain and the
rush hour traffic, which is
most days. Good old Sussex.
Anyway, hope wind and waves
remain kind to you and don't
suffer any "Deliverance" type
situations!
[Geoff
Hinton]

I have
just been speaking to your wife Tim
and arranged to see you in early
April! Can't wait I really want to
hear ALL about this trip. Looks
amazing. Now I have retired from
the police I htought I might try
expedition medicine which might be
a tad more interesting and better
for the figure! I will be
interested to hear about your
weight, not because you are a fat
git but medically speaking when you
undertake such a challenge!!! I'm
full of admiration and a tinsy
winsy bit jealous of such a trip.
Keep paddling and enjoy. Love from
[Anne Harrison] |
| 17th |
Hi
Richy, we have been watching your
progress closely and hope the
weather is more kind for you
all. The pictures look great,
the boys especially like the ones
of the penguins and dolphins.
The one of you in your paddle pants
made Ben and Sam laugh (they think
they are a bit girlie). Keep
the pictures coming as I am waiting
to see the huge fish you are going
to catch! Remember everything
I have taught you and stay
safe!! It all looks “very
tasty indeed” and wish I was there
too. I have been updating the
boys in work every duty day and
they are all behind you and wish
you all well. Good luck
[Mark, Bryony, Ben and Sam] |

Mr
Carter, Sir! Just wanted to
say hello from Wallington! I
was sorting through the photos I
took over Christmas and came across
some good ones of the gang on the
beach: Phoebe & Hamish were
particularly daring fetching the
stick for the dogs in ever deeper
puddles... they must have been
subconciously thinking about their
dear old Dad and wanting to
experience freezing water!.
We did miss you of course -
particularly your pace setting
although you'd be slightly proud of
us clambering down some ice &
seaweed encrusted rocks I
think! Your family are coping
extremely well without you (!) and
we were most impressed with the
barn, but did you really have to go
all that way to get away with not
working on it?!! Well, better
get back to minting some more
fivers... you know how us Bankers
are. Just leaves us to say:
keep going! All the best to
you, Ritchie & Chris. [Savio
& Jamie] |
| |
Hope
the North winds are abating and
that you haven't run out of food
with the slower than expected
progress - bet you're glad you put
on some extra pounds Tim. All well
here - had Hamish's birthday
sleepover (!!!!!) on Friday lovely
boys but a tad noisy so Footy
looked a little bleary eyed on
Saturday. Today have been
sawing logs and playing patience on
the computer so much easier with
Tim away tee hee.
It has been pretty windy here too -
no damage to us but Phil lost one
end of his roof yesterday - it was
like a mini tornado. lots of love
[Footy xxx] |
| 20th |
Hey Richy… Good effort, been
following you guys daily, Beefy
loves the ‘camp’ pictures of
you. J Coombers got his
worry head on about you (when
he’s awake) and me… I need a
stand in so hurry up! Good luck
mate. [Ray Filbay]

Hello Timbo Ritchie and
Chris, we are keeping up with
your antics as often as poss
and thrilled youre having the
experiences you dreamed about
(some of them anyway!) and Im
not! Yes its me (those waves
look enormous are you sure? )
aka Pete. Your trip looks
amazing and the pics really
help give an idea of what you
are undertaking...real boys
adventure stuff. We have a new
Greenie to tell you about ...
ROSIE ! named after our mates
sunkissed face in some of the
pics, shes 9 wks old and just
as
gorgeous/round/hairy/feisty/hungry/vocal
as you Tim! haha!
Home is all well and still in
one piece despite the best
efforts of the weather and we
are all fit and healthy. Matts
getting excited about his own
trip now and is enjoying
spending his dosh on all the
little necessities he`ll need.
Everyone sends their love and
best wishes. Will keep logging
on to check on your progress.
Take lots of care and keep
taking the photos, love
from the Greenies xxxx
P.S The sea looks fairly flat
in all of the views - perhaps
id have coped after all ?????
NAH just kidding. [Peter
Green]

Two messages in a week - I'm
spoiling you. It was great to
hear the latest update Tim -
you write a good report. Good
too to see the photos - the
campsite looks beautiful. have
told Derek about the birdlife -
he is very envious. Went to
choir tonight where Tony had
printed off your latest diary
entry for all to see. many send
you best wishes as did John
Benhalleck last night at the
old Cornwall dinner. I have
updated him as he has no
computer and he will pass the
news on on Thursday. Still not
sure about the beard - don't
RAF flights have razors. Will
write again on the weekend -
lots of love to you and your
two hairy friends xxx

Hi Chris, hello just to say
that we are still watching your
progress... Been in hospital
for whole of last week and back
in on Monday for 10 days, but
Sam and Liz are keeping me up
to speed..We are all
very proud of you, lots of love
[ex- & kiddies

Tim, we were glad to see the
progress on the map and the
photos. We hope it was just tea
in those mugs and we did not
know you were going to play
bonfires, Pete will be
jealous. Thanks
for call.
[
Mum and
Dad]

Tim -
Footy here - keep meaning to ask
you - answer when you have a mo!!
Did you take the right clothing? Is
it warmer/colder than you
expected? Is it cold at
night. Are you getting enough
to eat? have you caught any
fish yet? All these and many more
questions to be answered soon on a
website near you. Here's Hamish ...
hey dad hows it going i hope all is
well as it is here Grease is
performing in under 2 weeks
everythings getting a bit tense but
compared to you i guess it's
nothing.all my best to everone lots
of love your best and worst and
only son. [Footy & Hamish] |
| 22nd |
Hi Guys - Following your
progress with interest. Well
done! I leave the Kimberley
today & will check again
when I get to Devon on
Saturday. Keep those sore
muscles working. Congrats Love
[Wendy in Kununurra]

Hello 3 men in boats! Really
enjoying your updates. Glad all
these Falkland folk are looking
after you so well, I know they
did when Sandy took HMS
Chichester in there in 1976.
Wildlife sounds awesome-please
note Timmy, the use of your
word which I now use regularly.
All well here. We have 3 guys
staying tomorrow-a group called
Cubania who are playing at our
village hall. Saturday is SOA
Christmas dinner at Mullion
Cove, then up to Hereford via
Footy's, before going to
Camarthen for 4 days-Helen and
the babes also joining us.
Richy, your Dad has visions of
this relaxing week doing our
own thing-I have news for
him-could be noisy with 2 under
2s. luv Mumsie xxx.
PS I like
the beards.

Hello
lads, Looks like all is going well,
wish I was down there but getting
ready for a course starting on the
28 Jan. Keep up the good work and
the pig is on me on your return,
(Flat or round, the choice is
yours). Happy paddling, Spider

Dear
Tim, Richie and Chris, I obviously
haven't enough to do if I can send
three messages in one week! Thought
i would take advantage of you being
somewhere with a computer.
Does this still count as an
expedition if you are sleeping in
beds and eating fresh bread (not at
the same time)? Am off to London
this afternoon to stay night with
Vivienns then up early tomorrow to
pick up Wendy from heathrow then
back to your ma and pa's for lunch
Tim. Gilly and Sandy are
calling for a coffee on Sunday
morning after Spirit Christmas
dinner in Falmouth the night before
and en route to hereford and Jill.
Table tennis resumed last night
complete with new ball hurling
machine. Very amusing to watch Mr.
Green before the speed had been
adjusted. Good luck with the
next bit looking forward to
the next lot of photos and diary
entry. love to you all
[Footy.xxxxx] |

Ho Ho You Paddlers.
Glad to see you
are making progress - more
detail of the pink arm bands
please!! Stunning part of the
world - and you are seeing the
parts that others never see!!
Richie you may be interested to
know that we did a team
building event with Dorset Fire
& Rescue in the new
Regional Operations Centre in
Taunton - very interesting and
controversial centre. I guess
you guys don't need any team
building but tell me has LMF
set in at any stage?

Hi
Chris love, it was
really good to hear
your voice yesterday, i
love and miss you very
much too,i am glad you

laptop on in the bistro
on your site so
that they can follow
your progress. my
flight, hotel, and
kennels have been
booked for next month
and i am really looking

Richie,
I hope your OK and enjoying
yourself. It looks very cold and
far too wet for me!! Lovely
landscape and wildlife tho. All
good here, possibly looking at a
move from Debenhams to Screwfix.
Wedding plans going well- most
things sorted. Sue is going to join
us on our wine, ale and cider
tasting for the wedding- should be
fun! We had a fun rather civilised
new year with sue and Richie Dunn.
Anyhoo, keep paddling- nearly but
not quite half way there- haha!
Love [Katherine and Phil Simpson

Dear
Richy-our
laptop has
broken again,
although i
watch the red
line on the
map getting
longer every
day - I
am at Ma's
house this
weekend for
pa's funeral
on monday, so
I'm using her
computer
& have
just been
looking at
your new pics
- hope the
beard isn't
driving you
crazy? at
least it will
keep your
chin warm
against the
wind,
man it
looks rough
& cold
out
there!
Thinking
about you and
missing you
everyday!
we like the
pics of the
penguins and
seals!
hope all the
boys are
feeling up to
full power
after the
re-charge at
Pebble &
good luck for
the next
bit.
all my love

Tim, Just to let you
know Wendy has arrived
safely we walked at
Teignmouth sea front
yesterday and around Stover
Lake today. She has been
watching your progress as
we have. We appreciate you
will not see much
civilization but we used to
export a few souvenir pots
to Falklands so you might
see the odd piece still in
use. We sent out blue and
white first off, and
latterly, if memory is
correct, named decorated,
flower decorations with
Falkland Isles on them.
Love from us all [Sister,
Mum and Dad]

Hello guv'nor and mates! So
pleased to hear you're having a
great time! Had a big Friday
night of beers and a warm
saturday morning shower and
fry-up and I felt bad for you
lot in the cold. Then I hear
you're kicking back in the
farmhouse with fresh bread!
Guilt officially dispatched!
All well here in Norwich, had
my 6 month probationary review
at work and am now a permanent
member of staff (as permanent
as possible in the current
economic climate!) Working
hard, playing hard and looking
forward to climbing when you're
back - bozzy in the sunshine
anyone?! lots of love [Amy
(Timmy's daughter) and my Chris
sends love too xxx]

| 26th |
Keep at
it you guys. From the photos we
decided that those of us who live
in Windy Wellington have got it
easy! We too liked the photos of
the penguins – better looking than
you guys! Thanks for the photos of
you all in the thermals, the best
thing about them, other than they
keep you warm is that they don’t
smell even after weeks of wear –
weird but true. No I have no
financial interest in NZ merino.
Enjoy seeing the thin red line
getting longer. Love from [Pete,
Jac, Tom and Lulu] |

Hi Dad,
Check out that
facial hair, but as you know I
like beardies. Just caught up
on all the photos and diary
entries, it sounds and looks
amazing. Got back yesterday
from a great week in
Bardonecchia, my ski-ing and
Italian has improved
significantly (I can now order
beer in 5 languages). It was a
great resort with lots of snow,
and with 13 of us the evenings
were quite entertaining too,
but obviously you know me first
lift up last lift down-a drop
barely passed my lips. Missing
you lots, hope the weather
stays on your side. Good luck
to you all, lots of love Old
Bean xxx [Joanna
Carter]

Hi
Richy, I'm a dad again. Boy. No
name yet. Mads, Freya and the kid
are doing well. The pics of the
trip look amazing. Only concern is
that you shave off the face fungus
before you come back to Cornwall.
Probably washing would be good too.
Quite glad the photo's aren't
Smell-o-Vision. Good luck to you
and the other guys with the rest of
the trip. I'm really quite jealous.
Cheers, [Kyle Brown] |
| 27th |
Hey Ho Richie, Sorry its
taken me so long to send a
message but I've only just
worked out how to work the
website!!! Glad all is going
well, although the winds sound
a bit of a nightmare. Love the
pics. you must be seeing some
amazing sights. All is well
here. Evie has been a bit sick
with bronciolotis, but in true
evie fashion she keeps smiling
and laughing even when she's
too weak to do anything else.
You've done well to miss the
cold weather here. I came of my
bike on the ice the other
morning. Luckily nothing but a
few bruises, including my ego!!
Ian is enjoying being a house
husband two days a
week.....he's desperately
trying to get the bathroom
finished at the same time. He
has moved the bath to a new
location and we had to spend a
week siting on the toilet
sideways because the new bath
was in the way.....tricky in
the middle of the night!!!!
Anyway, good luck and keep the
messages coming. Lots of love
[Jo, Ian and Evie xxxx]

hey
daddatimmyman, im sorry for not

Hi Rich and colleagues,
Hope it is going well
with your little paddle around
the Falkland Islands? Following
with interest your progress on
the website, keep up the good
work and make sure you avoid
the seals, whales, any icebergs
or fishing vessels!!!!
Hope the rest of the trip goes
to plan and catch up when you
get back. Good luck from me,
and all your colleagues in
Cornwall County Fire Brigade.

Hey
there, Richie! Thought it was
about time I sent a message, so
here ya go! Di and me are
keeping an eye on your progress
and are both very impressed
with the beard. I bet the
eyebrows are of an outstanding
length by now, Sue is gonna
have her work cut out on your
return! The trip so far sounds
like your perfect adventure.
Hope you've caught a few fish,
you should have after you
recieved so many good tips from
the watch! I see you've even
managed to find some surf on
your travels. Anyways you take
care Cheers mate [Coomber &
Di]
