i bruise easily

I bruise easily So be gentle when you handle me, cant scratch the surface without moving me underneath . Words from a song that gra gave me on a cd for christmas beautifu words but so true. We are all a lot more fragile than we know .
Zanzibar was fantastic our mystery benefactor chartered a flight for the three of us and we were whisked to an idyllic resort ,it was so romantic ,. Perfect for a honeymoon it was just so gorgeous , the beach was long white fine sand , turqiose water that was warm !!
It was so pretty we lived in these gogeous chalets that looked outinto the water and the surrounding african bush . We had a dnner by the pool arabian style and then out for dancing bongo music stil isnt my favourite . We were treated like princesses it was so lovely . Really an exotic experience.
Anyway hope that shame doesnt upset Ella today and the message is honey donet worry easy come easy go .
love

So long and thanks for the bananas

so this week was nteresting anthroplogically speaking the male species are really fascinating in many ways ..i wonder sometimes how we continue to propogate with the stupidity and total silliness of most of them .
It s hard to see how women found any of them attractive. !!! Its all a new chapter in my book which if course Earhart and I already discussed .

"Men Who Cares What Planet Their From - They are all bastards anyway ..." Thats copyrighted folks ...

This week i met several types all of whom left me wondering about the future of the human race . The first demanded a lot and then announced he didnt believe in making effort for women anyway after all it got him no where . Well that attitude certainly wont get you anywhere sunny jim !!Women like romance they like spontaneity not to be told you are not worth effort . Play hard to get too much and quess what you dont get got !! Good luck with your game plan though P45 winging its way to you

The second met me out and actually despite the fact i didnt give him any info or even a phone no tracked me down to my hotel and called around to invite me out. Much better i'll say . Anyway he then text ot ask me out but when my phone was broken due ot african network problems and i didnt text specifically he assumed i wasnt going and didnt show up . Luckily i brought along the crew so it was a good night anyway !! But silly bugger ....

The Third is Sparky .

Need a holiday from the men in my life well only the last two still remain the first one should know by now where to go . The second is taking me out so we'll see. At the moment his crimes are the least .

Whats the Kylie minogue song Better The Devil You know ???

So the moral of the story is so long and thanks for the bananas

ooops i did it again

So I return to Tanzania happy to see the beautiful summer westher and near forty degree heat !!! After the freezing temperatures it was a refreshing change !
I had almost forgotten the heat and the stampede of downtown Dar not that they are polite in ireland i guess they just dont have the colourful noisiness of the Darians .
Even at the airport i was greeted by the freindly shouts of Mambo and Jambo !!No i have continued any study of the swahili language each day i try to find someone to teach me another new word. Yesterday it was Habairi's response Mizuri but what does Mizuri mean ?? I still wonder the gentleman who thought me this word a porter at my hotel lackced the english to explain it . So now i have a new word without any clue as to its meaning . Answers on a postcard please... .
Todays word came along as I drove down samora and someone walked in front of the cab .Kee Cha my driver screamed and explained this time , Crazy !! He also mentioned how the sun sometimes had this effect on people...good to know in the land of eternal sun .
More Tales of Taxis yesterday i picked one up and threw a calender for 2005 of the offcie i had just visited in the back . I got the driver to wait at my next stop the EU Commission however when i came ot i found him arguing emphatically with two unifromed men and shaking my calender around !!
i decided the best course of action was to gnore the ongoing arguement and seat myself down .After a minute he joined me flinging the calender in the bakc. i was silent as he seemed to curse in swahili ( im not fluent but you get the idea of swearing doesnt matter what the language !! )
Seemingly the guards were protecting the taxi area and thought he had strayed onto their patch to pick up customers whereas he had in fact picked me up downtown where the calendar was addressed , he was proving his innocence.
