i love how you've written this in the present tense...more than six months after it happened!! nice try! you do have a phenomenal memory though.
I recommend that people don't watch fight club while on a plane - plane crash scenes while experiencing turbulence does not make for a happy trip.

oh dear! lol good photos! hello! i'm Lyndsay! where are you staying? my dad and grandparents live quite close to Kilifi, in Shimoni, dad works for KMFRI.
Hi Kati. Congratulations on your magnificent efforts to reach the top of Kilimanjaro! I'm sure that the sight of Spiderwoman in a puffy red jacket was an inspiration to all the other climbers and something that all the Kenyan porters will talk about for years!
Well, yes - there is a bit of logic there, Craig. I think the best way to describe the physical exertion of it is as follows: imagine you're an old dude who has smoked a lot and now gets puffed out just walking to the loo (yes, this happened to us - the loo bit, not the smoking bit). now try, in this state, to walk up the stairs for hours at a time....
fittest of the lot Well Done KH well done. I doubt very much whether I would be able to make such a trek.
I'm not suprised Brigid didn't fall or get sick. You should know being short means the blood doesn't have to be pumped as far. And also the low centre of gravity thing. :0)
Bust a Move I can only hope that you didn't introduce them to Katherine Howell's 90s trash?! I think "more than words" would go down very well...the ladies love it.
Don't mess with Maria! It sounded like another typical Katherine story when I read about you being bucked off a donkey. What was unexpected was that you actually landed on your feet!!!! I expected you to land on your backside in a huge puddle or a pile of steaming donkey droppings or something equally as lovely!
Running out of prawns Dear Pinkus's,
I am near fresh out of prawns.. All I have left is lesbian ham.. its a little more expensive, $7 a kilo.. but boy does it taste good with yaks milk.. if you don't buy it i'll rip ya bloody head off (get get get it).

old folks home Hey KH,
After getting abuse for being old enough to remember the 90's I'm posting back on your blog. At least I'm not the eldest poster here.Cheers, hope all is well. TC
Hello there! Hey, im sending my first blog message to you. Thought it was about time I got onboard with the blogging! Sounds like you're having a great time..although your dog looks a little scary! Too bad about your pants! Your place looks incredible...I like the look of your swimming pool:) Well, on the home front, all I can say is that you're missing a very cold week in Melbourne..it was all sunny and warm until about a week ago and now it's freezing. Chat soon xx
That's divai to you. Vipi, Shimon Peres. Mama yako ni karanga nyama. Atakunywa maji ya matunda na anacheza dansi na backstreet boys. Kabla ya unakula tikitikimaji, unahitaji kula punda milia yako. Nitakuwa rais desemba. Utaona. Utaoga pia. Tutaonana kawa samaki inaona papa.
Translation - 'Sup, SP. Your mother's a beef stew. She will drink fruit juice and dance with the backstreet boys. Before you eat watermelon, you must eat your zebra (donkey with stripes). I will be president in december. You will see. You will also shower. See you like a fish sees a shark.

2008: Back in Australia, back at work, and spending most of my time out of work studying for exams in March 2009. Still managing to get away a bit...
