I'm having a fantastic time. A few ups and downs- the family tried to put the dog down by feeding it rat poison- sadly it didnt work and I spent most of the new stroking and calming the dog whilst it foamed and vomited. Also the younger twin is studying medicine and apparently needs to practise disections at home so this weekend a dead human body (cleaned and preserved with salt water?) is arriving the the boot of their dad's car to live in the bedroom with me. It's kept in an air conditioned box. Pretty sure that's not how it works in England.....Teaching is awesome and I'm loving it, mc donalds style. I have just been asked to be in the school play which is an interpretive dance albout the local pier through the ages. I wish I was making this e-mail up! It starts when the pier was fully funcioning and there were tradesmen from accross the world that settled here. I am representing England- dressed as an English speaking boat. Then it shows how the port moved so the pier became a tourist site, then the falling of the pier which happened last year and it ends with people crying over the pier. Woop. should be pretty fun viewing. I cannot wait to start rehearsals...... (I wish people understood sarcasm in Colombia, although it is funnier just being sarcastic in my head!)
