Mike left very early this morning for reasons quite clear. He has basically fallen in love with a girl working at the dive centre. He has concluded that he must not shit on his own doorstep. The enterprising young man has managed to find himself work and lodging at a stables down the road. In exchange for being allowed to hang up a hammock, he will groom horses and cut sugar cane. This enables him to spend a little more time on the island to see how things pan out. Ahhhh the things we do for love eh?
Which leaves myself somewhat alone. I’m swiftly moved to a dorm room, still by myself due to the fact I’m coughing and spluttering my germs everywhere. I’m still really ill, and although its stopped coming up, its still leaking out. This blog was never going to pull any punches so I won’t apologise for the gory details.
I spend the day sweating profusely from fever, within yards from the toilet. I manage to eat some super noodles and keep them down. I fall asleep early, listening once again to the horrible music and neanderthal drinking games booming out from the place across the road. The only good thing about today is that it’s over.
Rough as a badgers arse
