Day 70, Weds 9 Dec 2009, 7307km, Bamako, Mali

While waiting for visas in Bamako I've had a chance to catch up on all the great comments and e-mails. Thanks for all the support I really appreciate it and I'm sorry for not responding but the internet connection I had was intermittent at best. Big thanks also to the charity donor of the moment Soreen, luckily I've got hold of a resupply (thanks Helen) so I'll test out the fruity goodness of malt loaf on the Malian palate in due course. Special thanks also to the Indigo Palace, Jethro and the residents of Ham for raising another £150 on the village quiz night. I'll be back for a curry before you know it!

Other Ham news - Jethro has shaved his beard and moustache off!!


You must be sad to have missed the Ham quiz night and the opportunity to win another cheese toasty maker!!  Perhaps when you return to the Indigo Palace you can provide them with a recipe for curried camel...or using some other meat that epitomises your trip!  Keep going Rob - you're doing amazingly.
