.. as the bullit struck I felt a millisecond of total relaxation before the pain.

Only kidding. Normal service will be resumed very soon but I find myself in the Perhentian Islands (Malaysia) where the time goes slow, the internet is virtually non-existant and the electricity comes on between 7pm and 7am.
So I havent been able to update and will try to very soon, obviously millions of you are waiting with fervent anticipation for the next proper installment when I’m back to “civilisation”
