More Sunday 22/10/2006
Tales from the riverbank.
We are still here with our travelling pals, a Kiwi called Rachel and Mick the scot. Most of the tar is set now and looks very fetching! Yesterday we achieved buying our pasenger ferry tickets for the Sudan,the boat leaves on Wednesdays. The barge which takes the bikes separately does not go at all now. It´s on holiday like the rest of Egypt! However, we have been told we can put the bikes on the passenger ferry! Hmmm. Anyway to get our tickets we had to de-licence, de-register, dellice, de-everything, but we’ve got them, it’s just a long wait. This am I checked the bikes, only to find my airhawk saddle has been stolen! Spent the morning at the local police station, you can imagine, big wobbly fan, flies, no ingleeesch spoken. Anyway, by lunchtime I'd signed a statement to say I'd probably stolen it myself and that no one else was to blame! I'm off to steal a beer!

hope you managed to get another saddle Clarkie
Howcome NC's writing all the blogs? What's happened to NG? Not complaining - they're interesting and always witty, look forward to reading them every morning when I get to work. Wills is doing well in ATC, loving it and playing the bugle, Ant's ecstatic - half term and his braces off - looking like a movie star and Robs is turning into a barrister overnight! Hope you guys are enjoying yourselves - good luck with the saddle!
