2 days to go!

Injections - check

Luggage - check

Visa - oops, couldn't get it today as I was snowed in!

So after closing everything off at work on Friday (hopefully successfully!), all that's standing in the way of my departure is the snow and ice in london.  I'll hopefully be collecting my visa from the Cameroon embassy tomorrow, and Heathrow would have sorted itself out and be working to schedule.  The best bit about the embassy visit - the guy that served me on Thursday was actually from Bangem, the town where I will be staying - it's a relatively small town, so it's quite amazing.  He was definitely very excited and he's gonna give me a letter to give to his family out there, and has told me to go visit them - Absolutely crazy and hopefully the sign of things to come.

What else... well - I've agreed to go without a laptop, and be 'yes man' (as much as I can).   Also, the internet access will be quite limited for me - Bangem doesn't as yet have access, so I will be travelling to a neighbouring town called Nkongsamba to reach the web (for which I have to take a car and a bus), so no promises re: updates. And, if anyone wants to know about malaria tablets... just give me a shout!
