Its a tough job Lurie, but someone's got to do it. You're a martyr to your job.

Roger, the place I'm in at the moment is a total dump. It's on the only piece of crappy coastline in the whole country, the wind pumps from the ocean, and we're surrounded by mosquito swamps. It's the only place in Mozambique I actually dislike with a passion. The original photo I attached was taken about 8 hours north of here, where the beaches are excellent.
The only reason we're here is that there are loads of precious minerals in the sand here. When this plant is commisioned it is likely to generate 6% to 8% of the entire country's income.
I've attached two photographs. The first is the airplane we flew in on. It's a Fairchild Metro, the second is a photo of the staff quarters.
Thank the stars I'm going home today! The plane should be here at about 1pm, and then it's a 4.5 hour flight (with a stop in Beira for customs, immigration, and refuelling) back to Johannesburg.
Cheers,
Marc
