28 Days Later

Well, technically 40... But in 40 days we´ve managed to hit our target of 28 days of field work. Sounds bad, but that´s not counting the week we had off around my birthday, so in 33 days in Aliaga, we worked 28. Boom. Go us! In those 28 days we´ve managed to do 20km square, which isn´t bad going. Today we also clocked 34 Celsius in the car. I had a wee bit of heat stroke and went and had a nap on the floor of the shower block for about an hour. Go me!

So for the next few days we´re going to be doing some easy work, some logs etc of the area, and just make sure everything is squared off. Meeting up with the Southampton lot on Sunday for the football and a chance to talk to someone other than Ben for an evening, an offer I can´t pass up. Not that we´ve had any fights, but we´ve run out of interesting things to say really, and now it´s all about the weather, what we´re going to have for dinner. I exaggerate really.

We´re considering blowing out of town early too and speanding a day in Santander, just for a change of scenary. But that´s all up in the air at the moment. I´m just glad to be officially finished. My DM´s managed to survive the trip, although the casualty list of clothes now includes both my pairs of shorts, with two lovely rips in the butt, probably from sliding down jaggedy rock faces and such, hopefully not from having a fat arse.

So, in a week I´ll be sitting pretty in my new room in the Stryder House, so long as Ross Orla or Culv let me in.

Ciao ciao ciao
