Eid Mubarak to all, belatedly, for last weekend :) For us Eid brought with it the benefits of a long weekend and the promise of fun and frolicks in the hills of Morogoro with the hash -Dar Hash House Harriers, for those asking the inevitable question... So we set off a bit late on Saturday morning in Franklin my beloved Rav4, and when we get to Chalinze and stop at teh usual garage we find half of the rest of the hashers all also stopped there and feeding on sambusas, beer and bright orange fanta.

However since then I have found myself reading other people's blogs with increasing interest, and thought I'd have another go. Life here is so endlessly absurd, so utterly ridiculous, that often the sheer lunacy drifts into the mundane and I need to give myself a shake to remind myself - here I am, this is me, I am doing this....
