Hi team, hope you are all well wherever you are in the world. Uganda is really hot, and lots has
been going on over the last week. So Saturday night was awesome...a trip up to "campsite" just up from Bujagali Falls was where the damage started, after a swim at Nile Resort Hotel and pizza at "Adrift" (a place over looking the Nile) allowed Holden and Laurence to let their hair down. Which by the way is getting quite long now, We really are getting into the shabby travelers role! A messy night in the club was key, and Laurence managed to pick up a very nice tall blonde Dutch girl, yet what is important to note is the fact he was "cock-blocked" not by Holden for once, but by her ugly sister...Stumbling home with some beef samosas we hit the hay and had a nice late rise the next day.
Sunday....um.....can't even remember what we did.....nevermind, I'll move on.
Monday, and the arrival of Ash and his brother Ed arrived! Ash an old shoe to Uganda kicked things off in style. Meeting with Godfrey in the morning, and we got some certificates made for the rugby boys at school. They read like this:
"Lords Meade Vocational College awards
(name)
...................
The Holden and Laurence
rugby achievment
award
For commitment to rugby and sports
Signed: Ben Laurence, and Alex Holden"
We handed these out in assembly, effectively, we founded rugby colours at the school, strong. A quick speech in assembly about us achieving second place in the tournament 3 weeks back and a welcome speech for Ash and Ed. It was their first night so some beers at the pub and some games of pool was on the agenda for the evening. Tuesday, and trip to town for a Laurence, Holden, Connor and Sam t-shirt shopping in the market was the plan of action. Some interesting t-shirts were purchased and some were rather spectacular. Holden bought one which had bright orange sleeve saying, "wendys burger house, homemade hamburgers", another saying "rock out with your cock out". Laurence was caught browsing at the starwars t-shirts, but settled for the "milo" one. Rugby training in the afternoon, Kene take note, we have now taught the boys the drop kicking game with the zones either side of the posts, it's alot tougher with stones on the pitch and hard red soil. Talking of soil, Holden soiled his pants the other day. followed by watching "kick ass", what a film, and not to mention,Jenny made us guaqamole and chicken wraps for dinner, night night sunshine.
Wednesday,and we had lunch in a new restaurant called "The keep", epic because they had Nandos piri piri sauce. A trip to sonrise orphanage with India to change some nappies, and back to go food shopping for "bangers and mash, banters and lash". Holden went on a mega lash to Sombraros while Laurence had an early night as he had 4 hours of economics teaching from 9am with the 6th form and a revision session because their mocks start next week. It was tiring but a productive day, a complete contrast to Holdens; whom Laurence passed on the motorbike on the way to school stumbling and choding his way home with a bottle of waragji in one hand. Anyway that night Holden, Laurence and India were on 'Baby Night Patrol' at Sonrise...basically pooey nappy's, screaming and more poo. We got little to no sleep as seen by the picture of Holden and Laurence negging in the morning (no we aren't hungover this time). The mood was lightened however by a 3am skype call from Levey who could not stop laughing for 15 minutes at the sight of us struggling to change nappy's and keep babies quiet, at the same time Nick from Melbourne gave us a quick call and laughed his head off at us man handling babies!! so much poo....
Anyway Keep Chillin' like a Villain.....muchos besos, Banter and the Chode xxxx
