Today I got a reply, written with a good-natured sense of humour. Hooray! Although there's lots of good lines in here, my favourite is probably, "Tops have been used instead of bottoms".

Jammie Dodgers
A couple of months ago I delved into my last packet of Jammie Dodgers - caringly imported by our lovely friends and family. I won't say much more about my experience here, instead leaving it to the letter I sent them...

Postcards
As we were walking around Aswan at Christmas, we noticed a large number of what can only be described as "terrible" postcards. These are cards that are either decades out of date, feature bland focal points, or are generally uninspiring considering they're designed to be bought.
However, as if to undermine the truly shocking nature of these cards - and the fact they really should be left to rot in the sun - we have started to buy them. It's taken us a while to get round to scanning and uploading them, but for your enjoyment here's our first batch!
Taba: Where dreams are made of concrete!

Philae: even older than the postcard
Nuweiba: dock here and wish you hadn't bothered
Esna Lock: Boats! Water! Concrete!
Dahab: The best bins in Egypt
Dahab: to be fair, this one is quite nice and shows the Lighthouse reef where we did our PADI Open Water

The Cairo TV Tower: transmitting shows that are as uninspiring as the architecture
The Cairo Tower: you guessed it - more concrete!

Akai Headrush at the Boss Bar
Another monthly Friday, and another Open Mic night at the Boss Bar. I took alogn my Akai Headrush sampler pedal for the first time, and did a few tunes. Alice took her camera and managed to film some video on it...not much, but it gives you an idea.
On the back of my spot here I'm now playing a full headline set on 27th May.

We've not uploaded a podcast in a while, but last night we spent a couple of hours on our theme of diving - lots of talk about the PADI Open Water course interspersed with songs about water and depth!
