One week down, 51 to go........"Contractor sheik" is the way to go here. 511 pants and collared shirt. It was 501's in the States, 511' tactile pants here. Takes awhile to change, you have to get all of your stuff out of your hundreds of pockets. E229 now has a little carpet to add to the homey feel. Much warmer on the toes. Have to be careful of tracking in mud. Not sure how to do that. First week-one acute appendicitis, one Malaria patient. Yesterday was alarm test day. Very droll British voice, "rocket.....................Attack.................Rocket........Attack"
They do your laundry for us. Very cool, comes back all folded. Very nice. Trying different Difacs, dining facilities. Went Asian. First healthy food. Most things are fried. Then Irish stew later on. There is an endless supply of Sprite. So keeps my morale up. Along with a cupatea and sausage roll. I will be so fat when I come home. More rain today, goody. Time for the wellies............
Wellies! Mark, you have to look up Billy Connolly's "Wellie Boot Song". It will sure bring a smile to your face, then you won't be able to help yourself singing it when you put them on. Enjoy :-)
