• "I like the photos on your site - I used to be a wedding photographer for more than 40 years, but I do suffer from vertigo!! If you get time, look at my family website on www.alaningram.co.uk   I have had about 6 other Alan Ingram's contact me over the last year. There is an Alan Ingram that is listed as a "voyeur" on a french search engine and the site is about "spanking".  Sometimes my friends who are looking for my site get confused thats me, except you saw that I am a family man!! I have also had two other Alan's requesting that I add their photos to my own site, and 1 suggested that we put up an "Alan Ingram" site to add us all in.  In fact if you go into Google and type in our name you will be suprised how many there are of us in the world!. I also attach a photo a friend sent me!  This was taken down in Devon.   Cheers."

• "Hello Alan, Thank you for linking my website. I appreciate this very much. How nice from you to install the picture with me in the Tunisian dessert. Isn't travelling just great? You've made so many wonderful trips and had so many exciting experiences - seems, you have been travelling all your life! Your page is very impressive and informative - if one could only visit all the wonderful places! There is so much beauty in the world and such an amazing diversity in cultural features. If people knew more about each other's countries and cultures they would have a better understanding and more respect for each other. As my husband and I grew up in the former GDR, our chance to explore different countries was limited. However, we visited several countries which are unknown to many people. Right in the middle of the political change of power in October 89 we were having a round-trip through the former USSR and had unforgettable impressions. In the photo attachment is a picture of an excursion we made to the Tienschan in Kyrgyztan. But - we are NOT mountaineers :-). Would this be a challenge for you? There are countless pictures and stories still waiting to be worked up (USA, USSR, Tunisia, Bulgaria, ... - just too little time :-). The second picture shows us this year in Portugal. Andreas is a teacher at the gym for German language / literature, for music and ancient cultures. As for me I'm working as an application consultant in the IT branche. Wish you many more exciting travel experiences :-)"

• "Alan, thanks for the lovely Nepal and Greece pictures. I feel like I enjoyed the Dhaulagiri trek with none of the pain. I had hiked in the Jomsom area in 1968, when I was working in Nepal for US Peace Corps, and when not a single restaurant outside K'du and Pokhara had an English menu. On an innkeeper's shortwave radio at Tatopani I heard BBC news tell that our President Lyndon Johnson was losing the primary elections and we would probably get a pro-peace president. So now I'm inspired to get my knees in better shape and take a few more moderate Himalayan hikes. And finally--your name, Ingram, is big in my town, Grass Valley, California, USA. A well known local newspaper publisher was Peter Ingram, and there are other relatives too. Thanks again."

Enjoyed the New Zealand section especially, having been out there last year with the family. Managed 4 days skiing there although unfortunately didn't get much walking done. Hope all is well with you.  Best wishes. "

• "Dear Alan: I saw your pictures of Nepal on the web. Thanks for sharing them. We (we're Dave, Mike, Bill and Chris) have developed a new website ( http://www.worldisround.com ) that we hope you'll check out. It lets you attach descriptions and advice to your travel photos (or embed the photos in short articles) and post them on the web. It's easy to use, and it's free. And of course, you can also check out other people's photos and advice. Our site is grassroots...we're not "funded" by anyone. We just came online on October 9th. We thought it would be really great if people could exchange travel photos and advice in an organized way. Once you post your photos on worldisround.com they can be reached directly by search engines and directories --no one has to go "through" our site to reach them. In other words, your photos and advice form a webpage that we host for free. The site also helps organize these webpages into a hierarchy of categories, so that people can find what they're looking for. If you have any questions, please e-mail us at info@worldisround.com . Thanks for your time, Chris"
