So, after attempting to put China all in one post and only making it as far as my second day, I’ve decided to serialise the entries for China, hopefully updating twice a week.
In other news, I’ve been working on an interactive map to display the best photos from the trip. The problem is that wordpress doesn’t like the scripts involved so basically I’ve had to find some webspace somewhere to host it all. Consequently the beta version (and let me stress that it isn’t finished yet) of the map and photos can be found at:
http://jealousyet.freeate.com/
Currently only China, Brunei, Singapore and Borneo are fully done – though I may still add a few more pictures to the China section – and Thailand and Laos have a few pictures up. Navigation is easy. Just click on the country you want to see the pictures from and a small window pops up with a browser. The different locations within the country are shown by thumbnails on the left hand side (which should bring up place names when the mouse rolls over them). NB: If it doesn’t work make sure you allow pop-ups for the site (my map is the only one I promise) or hold ‘ctrl’ when you click the country.
Please feel free to comment on this post. Any feedback on the China thing, or on the picture map would be most appreciated.

UPDATE 11.01am: 08-12-08
The server is currently down on the test site for my photo map (somewhat typically). A backup copy of the site can be found here, so please use this link if the one above fails to load. I apologise for the adverts on this link, hopefully the primary server will be back up soon.
