Hey Tom, Am so sad to not be able to catch up with you. had some very nice month here in Nigeria, actually Lagos. And i sort of happened to have something similar to your exerpience in Ghana. That is probably, what kept me here so long. Anyway, I will be going to Cameroon tomorrow and finally fly back from there towards the end of May. Maybe I will pick up from there later in my life, maybe not. I wish you all the best, say hey to betty and hope to see some other day...

---

Hi Tom! How are you?? It looks like it was yesterday that we met at Finisterre. A bit sad of not finding the photo anymore, but ... that's life! I was searching bycicle posters on the net and suddenly it made me remind of you. A long, long trip! Good luck. Petons des de Barcelona. Marta

Hey Tom - I'm the kiwi you met at Mole in Ghana - what's happened - your site seems to indicate you're back in London, but the last diary entry I can find is from Cameroon on Dec 16, and I can't find any of the Nigerian stuff I saw previously. Looking forward to hearing how you got on.

---

Hi Tom, For a second, at the Generator, I thought you were pulling my leg! Not anymore. It was a real pleasure knowing you. Great stuff for your future pubbing hours indeed! Bike on.

Hi Tom. Nice site, I'll visit every now and then when I find good connection. It was great meeting you in Abomey. I'm in Niger now and haven't had a conversation in English since!

---

Hey Tom Back in NZ now, and looking at your exploits with a mixture of envy and "thank god it's not me!" Ghana to Mali and back was enough, but the desert is calling again (although prob. on a motor bike next time) Hope everything goes well.

---

Good to know your still on tour! Go on shining and take care...Heike from Cologne

---

Yes I know, but tomthepom.com is already taken by some didgerdoo player.

---

Hey tom, like the new site, I'm assuming the story of the old one is on there somewhere. I was surprised you got .org as "tomthepom.com" has a nicer ring to it. your wondering about Nigeria I hear... I'll send you an email, things sound good hope your holiday was nice.

---

Nice website! I try calling you. To give you that hug... It never worked! Good luck on the next stage!

---

hey tom cool website, i like those desert photos. will read more on the site later. are you glad to be back in ghana or cant wait to leave? good luck

je suis venu prendre de tes nouvelles, Le retour pour moi à était difficil! En tout cas ça m'a donné envie de découvrir le monde !! Ton personnage me manque beaucoup et tu reste le lien qui rattache mon esprit à l'aventure! je pense à toi et je me dis que la vie est courte et qu'il ne faut pas perdre de temps avec des choses illusoires. tu m'a contaminé dans ta fièvre du voyage. Merci encore pour cette découverte et bon courage pour la suite.

---

je suis venu prendre de tes nouvelles, je vois que tu écris de moins en moins sur ton site!! tu dois avoir trop de chose dans la tête.Tu as raison; vie l'instant sans te préoccuper de ce que les gens attendent de toi et prend du bonheur, croquela vie. Le retour pour moi à était difficil, même si je ne suis resté qu'un mois! En tout cas ça m'a donné envie de découvrir le monde et l'année prochaine , je part au PEROU!! Ton personnage me manque beaucoup et tu reste le lien qui rattache mon esprit à l'aventure! je pense à toi et je me dis que la vie est courte et qu'il ne faut pas perdre de temps avec des choses illusoires. tu m'a contaminé dans ta fièvre du voyage. Merci encore pour cette découverte et bon courage pour la suite.

---

Tom, Hattie and I reunited in Yosemite in July where we shlepped heavy packs over tall mountain passes for no good reason. Much fun despite not being able to walk down stairs for about a week after the trip. We missed your smiling face but made snarky comments about the swarms of national park tourists in your honor. Hope you're well.

---

Hey there, long time no news, hope that is because you are resting up pretty good, and still safe somewhere out there under the big blue sky....take care of yourself, and do drop me a line sometime.
