Friends...

This is a quickie 'cos it's late and I need my bed. I met up with a few of the guys I went to Cambodia with in 2005 today for a coffee (great to see you Vicki, Margery, Derrick, Anne, Brenda - and Robert, albeit briefly) and it was so good to chew over memories of our trip last time and have a laugh together. We went out as strangers and yet, thrown together for those two weeks, there's kind of a special bond between us which comes from sharing special experiences. I'm looking forward to seeing how the 'team' experience affects us this time.
And still more generosity too as I left with more gifts to take. Beginning to feel a bit Santa Clausish and wondering if we couldn't get there sooner with reindeer and a sled!
Came home to find twenty tubs of multi-vitamins sitting on the hall carpet - dropped in by a member of my congregation who works for a Leading High Street Pharmacy and who clubbed together with some of her workmates to donate them - I just hope they got the staff discount!
Ok. I'm off to raid the fridge.
Then bed.
(Only one more anti-malarial free day before the pill-popping begins.)
