Good morning all!Another week has passed by so quickly!Cannot believe it is the weekend already. I just managed to get out of 6hours of my sunday on call...which means i can go away for the weekend!!Whoooop whoooop!On the downside...it means I am in all sunday night..probably shattered!Oh well, I am delighted to be able to get away!
So not much happening in the last few days here. Mainly and lot of goodbyes to the Germans!!With every goodbye there is a bbq and with every bbq comes late nights and wine!!
Wednesday we went to this amazing farmers market.Got fresh blue nose fish and cooked it on the bbq; it was amazing. After we headed out to stellenbosch.....where we ended up going to an Irish bar!!!(Honestly..i thought it was a joke...it is theeeee least likely place in the world for an irish bar!) Anyhow...there was some cultural irish drinking....and then came the weirdest of weirdest of things; fairytale of new york.....and people in christmas hats!!!!!How strange!!
they are celebrating a sort of mini xmass today.it is the 25th..and in the middle of their winter!Very strange altogether!
Yesterday we went to the farmers market again....and the pharmacist as one of the guys has developed SEVERE diarrhoea as he (seriously...you won't believe this!!) drank yellow looking water from a stream on table mountain as they were gasping and had no water and thought it was a "freash water stream"!!Honestly like!!For nearly a week now he has been sick!
Went to see Bruno last night; no comment. Shocking!!
Last night the south africa students held a disco in the gym here; it was like going to Kill all over again!!A school hall with black sack covering the windows!Anyhow,either way we had fun and entertained ourselves. However, the fun continued until 4am in a kitchen drinking tea;that turned out to be the worst idea ever as we forgot (and remembered at 3.50am)that we had teaching at 6.45am!!We flipped a coin to see if we would go....and of course it landed on the "go" side...so go we did.Asleep.Then we went on the ward round....then we had teaching again....and now i am writing this...asleep.
The ward is pretty chilled at the moment. There is a good few free beds and they are clearing them for the weekend of maddness that awaits.It is pay day today..and this is supposedly when all hell breaks loose!!Sunday night should be fun. Going into resus tonight to get aquainted with the dental syringe again. Hopefully this time things will go a bit better!!!
Right, that is all for now. Will be away for the weekend...so will update you on mon/tue (depending on how busy sunday night/mon morning is!)
Love to all....please somebody text me with the score of the hurling game!Will be dying to hear!
Have a good weekend!!
p.s....had my wool winter hat on yesterday!!Brrrrrrrr.....
