Who's your black monster?





The babies home night shift was just another classic chapter in the adventures, of Laurence and Holden. Several wake ups throughout the night but overall we battled through the poo, wee, milk, and crying but still smashed a good 6 hours sleep. Tuesday and we returned to our regular routine, a trip to our newly discovered gym called "The Black Monster Weight Lifting Club"!. If any one could argue lifting scrap metal and old tyres wasn't fun, they'd be wrong. A truely
African adventure as we made friends with the local meat heads of Jinja, and in summary, the most experimental fitness session of our lives, certainly the pearl of Africans weight lifting circuit, Arnie would have been proud. Tuesday evening and it was Sarah's last night, a trip up to "The Black Lantern", an A La Carte restaurant over looking the Nile, situated next to a back packers bar. The BBQ rips were divine, and the beer was refreshing, definately a recipe to disaster. And it was! Drinking games and Cardiff based chat enabled Laurence and Holden to take home the cup and title of funniest people in Jinja. We did however have some sad news. Annabel decided to break down, we were just praying she would pull through...

Wednesday and we smashed out another Gym session at Damwaters Health first club. We waved goodbye to Sarah and had a meal with the boys and an early night as Thursday was to be a good one. The next day we spent a productive day reading, practicing and listening to music. We also indroduced the game of Pat Ball in a perfect court that was in the garden of our guest house, Ash and Ed certainly struggled against the experience and finesse of Holden and Laurence. We had a lot of rain as well! We went to town to go shopping with Ed and Ash to get DVD's and buy all the ingrediants for our classic meat towered homemade pizza's! A great evening had buy all.

Friday was a day we were all preparing for, Holden and India had a gig that evening at a venue called "The Keep". We reahersed all day and got ready for our set. Although they did'nt serve alcohol in the venue, the boys got on it hard before and smuggled in ye olde jesus juice in the christian venue Holden played and got behind him and India as we ripped the place up with J-mraz and the classic 4- chord medley, (wish Mitch was there). We moved onto another bar and watched several people pass out in pubs on our crawl through Jinja Main Street. What a night !!!!

Banterwiess und die chode
