@fleura Perhaps befriend an Ethiopian and get them to accompany you next time. Looks scrumptious although the injera sounds dodgy.

@Fleura Once Christmas is over, I might offer to take some of this couple's things and move them on if they'd like me to. There is so much useful stuff that just goes to waste.

@Fleura @JudyEv There was also that guy in the US who got his arm stuck while out solo mountain climbing. He ended up carrying out his own amputation to get free. The movie 127 Hours was based on it.
