  • The Blues

    It’s January, still.  Just.  It means that it is dark when we leave the house to go to work, which means it is really hard to see the endless cyclists and motorcyclists who have never heard of lights or if they have then have decided that they are a ‘new fangled idea’.  It is also…

  • Fuente Again

    Happy New Year!  We hope that 2020 brings you all that you deserve, all that you need and all the Halloumi cheese you can eat. As I type this, we are ‘back home’ in Spain, in very sunny Fuente Tojar and preparing for our journey back to Morocco so that Sonalee can return to her…

  • Triumph and Despair

    So, let’s start with an apology for the length of time between blogs – sorry but we’ve had a lot going on recently.  Now, let’s get to the shitty part where I describe why our lives have been made to feel a bit empty. I was called into work to cover for a day, came…

  • Choices, choices

    Here in Morocco we have an absolute monarchy.  The King is revered and must never be criticised.  It is one of the definites about life in Morocco.  Other examples include telling a man that his wife is pretty – you just don’t do it.  You should never refuse an invitation to dine or refreshments at…

  • Winter is Coming

    Let us start with a negative.  The driving.  OMG.  Some of it has to be seen to be believed sometimes and this is from two people who drove in Sri Lanka!  The ability of some drivers here to astonish us with their stupidity goes above and beyond what you might call reckless or ridiculous.  Parking…

  • Be Careful What You Wish For

    I have made a financial contribution to our situation!  After 14 months of not earning any money, I have, finally, been able to make a little bit of cash.  A few weeks ago the school asked me to cover for the Elementary school PE teacher for four mornings as she was on a swimming course. …

  • Near Miss

    Well, we’re still in Africa.  It still seems weird to say that.  Granted, we have mainly seen the coastal road of Rabat and its environs which means we have seen about 5% of the capital city, which means we have seen about 0.5% of Morocco which means we have seen about 0.005% of Africa.  Nevertheless,…

  • Bonjour!

    Well, we made it.  We’re here in Africa.  We can hardly believe it ourselves.  Its slightly strange that BBC world – one of the very few English channels we can get on the telly that we found here – has programs about Africa that are suddenly a bit more relevant. Anyway, the journey here was……

  • Hasta Luego, Andalusia

    Well, we have two days until we leave for Northern Africa.  The van is equipped with a slightly gangly-looking storage box on the roof as well as a large doggy box in the back because Bindi has a lot of stress being in the car – it’s a way of limiting any puking she may…

  • Feeling the Heat

    It’s hot.  It’s bloody hot.  Again.  We’ve been through two heatwaves in the past month and now we’re into a mini-heatwave where the afternoon temperatures only reach 40 degrees.  If there is anybody left in the world who could deny climate change, please come here for a week in July and August.  Climate change in…
