Well arrived safely last night to Doula in Cameroon after a very early start flying from London via Paris to Doula. Was delayed in Paris due to a faulty wheel which was only spotted just before take off (wasn't that how Concrode crashed in Paris? _ does nothing for my giving up smoking!). Anyway they changed it and I got here later than planned. Big culture shock as over 30 degrees when landed at 7pm at night only for the hotel to not bother picking me up from the airport. A doggie transaction with the local police got me into a safe taxi to the hotel and a beer and then early to bed.
ABout to pick up Annie from the airport in the next hour from South Africa via Ethiopia and tomorrow pick up the group and on Friday head off for a few days on the beach. Cannot wait;
must go but will update as we go along. Keep in touch x
