hello again my friends. they say there is no rest for the wicked: conversely that must mean there is rest for volunteers. therefore i am writing today from the comfort of a hotel reception computer in the fat monkeys establishment in cape mclear - MALAWI SUMMER 09 ON TOUR!!!!!!!!!
not really, we're just here for a weekend. anywho the ride here was fun-we got sumthing called a matola which is a pickup truck that u jst ride along in the back of. i know what you're thinking, maybe a little unsafe? well no actually becoz with anything between 20 and 30 people in there you actually get squeezed in quite nicely, like a big organic seatbelt and airbag system. in addition the 8 petrol canisters at the back do give you something to hang on to.
in order to keep any mothers reading this happy, most notably mine, i didnt get killed. in fact the only medical mishaps i have so far are when i forget i have suncream on my hands and rub my eyes. really quite a nasty one that. i had a pizza last night for dins and full english for breakfast-could well have set the world record for timed food consumption. not that we're eating badly in any way, its just a little repetitive and theres not much meat action going on. going on a boat and scuba thing later which is supposed to be great giggles and also very cheap! like everything out here. when i changed $600 at the airport i was handed about 80,000 kwacha (malawi moneys) in return! i thought i was a millionaire! (that last sentence is wildly incorrect on many levels).
right well id better get back to tanning, or burning in my case. damn this translucent skin.
tionana, until next time, and nobubu.

Excellent. Glad to see you took full notice of my 'don't get into any unsafe-looking vehicles' and 'put plenty of sun cream on regularly' lectures.
