Until now only 4 or 5 people have known about this web address. Those 4 or 5 people just happened to be absolutely random picks - they were friends who happened to be communicating with us in the first couple of days of starting Travels In Our Jeans.
Well, I have already freaked out once, thinking I had a web stalker after only 5 days. Aaron who I joined the Army with 20 years ago, told me he hadn't seen the web site but then a name similar to his came up from a chronologically earlier post with some very cutting remarks about how the poster saw our trip panning out. Whilst it sounded like his humour, because of the time on the post I knew it couldn't be so I immediately locked the web site down and required comments to be vetted by me before appearing on the web - then I discovered, 1 day later, that at that point the time was a USA region whereas I had assumed GMT. The post was from Aaron and in that context was very amusing. Of course he has tamed his comments down now and probably won't dare come back! The time on comments is now Australian Eastern Standard.
Anyway, the time has come to tell the world. So WELCOME!! It is still very much a work in progress but a usable work in progress and hopefully a little informative so far.
Soon we will be linked to our own donations page through CMRI and their page at Every Day Hero. We are going to add to our Home page and explain how we hope that people might like to donate to CMRI by sponsoring us, kind of like a Travel-A-Thon. We expect to visit about 40 countries, cross 50 international borders and cover tens of thousands of kilometres so there is plenty of scope for people to add encouragement to us and at the same time help out with CMRI.
