I'm still here

Hello out there!

Just to let you know I am still here. I'm been to the coast with Phil, to Nairobi National Park, back to Mombasa on my own, and to Kilombe for a very brief fieldwork visit (awesome ESA/MSA site! So exciting) and now I have today to buy everything I need to, get everything I own packed up into what I'm taking to Tanzania and what I'm leaving here to take HOME (!!!!!!), do all my washing and get it all dried in time to pack it. Find missing things like my drinks flask mug thing which disappeared from the cupboard a few weeks ago, and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo which no-one seems to have borrowed yet someone has to have taken it from my pile of books on the desk! Grr, missing things, grrrr. I also have 3 reports to write, a load of files to organise for Matt, and a Sarah to visit. Manic day in store methinks. The reports can wait until I'm in Tanzania technically, and I can email them over, but the files need to be organised and put on disk before I go.

So I am in the midst of my mega write-up, I think I'm at about the point of Mombasa with Phil, but it's just going to be one loooong write up with headings so you can skim past bits if you want to. But as ever I do it more for myself for my own future reference than anything else, so if it's too long for you then I apologise, but I don't really care that much. ;-P

So I only have one more thing to say before I carry on with my heaps of stuff to do:

England v Germany, we was fracking robbed I tell yer. Painful, disastrous, and how would it have gone if that goalkeeper hadn't been a *bleeeeeeep bleeping bleeeep*, there's no way he could have missed the fact that it was over the line. Bastard. I felt rather sorry for the German couple sat with us who very wisely didn't celebrate visibly at the end of the game. Grrrrr! Anyway. On with the busy day.

Oh, and internet access will be very sporadic from now on, so I'll probably only be online once a week or something once I'm in the field. Gosh, it'll be almost like I thought it was going to be when I came over in October. :)

Have a great summer folks!
