I have just seen whats going on in Britain according to the BBC website and it seems to consist of death, tennis and Big Brother, so thank goodness I am here. Their is something of a wimbledon effect in Russia att the moment. For a fortnight each summer the parks in Huddersfield are crowded with people playing tennis - the other 50 weeks they are empty. Their seem to be a lot of people playing football in Russia at the moment.
I visited the familly who hosted the previous party for a second time last night, their was endless very nice food (thank you again if you are reading this) and offers of Vodka. But if I can reccomend all visitors of two things;
Firstly learn to say 'tchut tchut' (meaning something like 'a little') ready for when your host offers you vodka and secondly take some vitimin B tablets for a while before you set off. This corner of Russia is full of breathtaking scenery full of lakes and forrests - as you will see when I manage to upload some photos. Unfortunately the one thing that loves lakes and forests even more than I do is the Mosquito and if you havnt taken your vitamin B they also love you.
I now have several wounds around my body which take a while to heal and when I go outdoors I get some more. I have some more interesting stuff to say once I can show you the photo's but thats all for now.
