Mon, 7 Feb

My future plans (what other sorts are there?) are still not clear. Obviously I need to make up my mind about where I want to live before too long, and if that's outside the UK then I need to go "home" and do something responsible with my house (like move out and let it). Obviously, if I decide "I've done my time I'm coming home" then it will be great that it's all there in one piece (hopefully) waiting for me.

On my horizon at the moment I hope to go to Zanzibar at the end of May to work once again on the Festival, and from there to go to Sinai to lead a month long summer camp. This should take me up to mid August. After that I have no plans, but I am open to temptation - it's kind of sunny here in Africa and I quite like that.

I'm not sure that I would want to return to Sudan. It's Africa, but without the Swahili, or the beer; and if the women are beautiful they keep it frustratingly well hidden. As I've said before - I find I miss friends and family from the UK, but without a job, London is a rather expensive, rather crowded place to hang out.
