SOMEONE has to take over YOUR job of enthusing people ... we only hope we can do it remotely as well as you did! <br /> <br /> Just thought of something else - you know what was missing this weekend? Your music ... we had great music but no one played all the interesting (but still danceable) stuff you dig out ... london just ain't the same without dj bitterjug....<br /> <br /> *sigh* i wish i had teachers like you …

Great to hear from you again sir :)
I am a newcomer to this here blog (Hello everyone) but I hope to stop by very often from now on to keep an eye on "Our man in Mombasa".

Mark - your illustration of booting a computer really gave me a flashback to college days and your gormet chips have me dribbling.
Great to hear that teaching is giving you a lift, which reminds me of a Tommy Cooper gag…

I was driving along the other day and a man waved me down.
‘Can I have a lift’ he asked?
‘Sure’ I said, ‘you look great, the world’s your oyster, go for it!!’
:D

Mark, I’ll try and get some spoken word to you as well as music, do you have any more tips on how to safely get CD’s through customs?
Until then, some English words to tide you over:
- Eccles Cakes
- Adnams
- Galoshes
- Dogger, Forties, Cromarty and German Bight

Take care,
Cad

This blog sees all and knows all. Mwah ha ha!<br /> <br /> Katie<br /> <br /> PS. Cad's lift story reminded me of my own experience in retail humor. Customers coming in to get stamped for free parking often asked, "Can you validate me?" to which I, in turn, responded, "Yes. You are a good person." Some customers laughed uproariously at my pithy come-back, but most were unimpressed. I, of course, cackled gleefully everytime. Mwah ha ha! Mark Man,
