Limeys All Juiced up
An interesting negative slant on Mongolia.
Come on guys get your (a....) or brains in gear. There is a lot more to the World than the USA.
We in the UK are more than up for it. We have sorted our team and I know that we are going. We know there are a lot of unknowns. It's gonna be different its gonna be another World but it will be an adventure. There will be pain and joy but what the **** let's not knock the whole thing down before even giving it a go. A couple of weeks in a yurt will be something to brag and bore on your return. A bit of altitude, so the locals manage AOK, why can't we?
So why don't you colonials show us what you think that you are made of!?
