Arrived safely in Africa, though not without another amusing adventure. Ah life is fun when you're terrible at forward planning. Zoe and I had been staying with a family, but have now moved into our house on a compound. Unfortunately, no gas right now so cooking is... a challenge. But we have running water, so I'm happy.

There has been no electricity for a while, hence the lack of updates. Plus I've been trying desperately to settle in (not so easy it turns out) and all that. But, I have been keeping everything written up, and will backdate posts onto here as soon as possible.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes. :-)
