Well today I saw the Doc and got the malaria prescription. I opted for the one-a-day short course tablet- Malarone so I don't have to take the tablets for weeks after I return . The Doc told me that the NHS don't like to prescribe it on prescription because they figure that if someone can afford to go on adventure holiday and want the more expensive tablet they can pay for themselves..
My Doc gave it to me anyway ( nice one !!). So I popped into the first pharmacist who apparently didn't have it in stock. So I went the Lloyd's Pharmacist across the road from it but they only had 1/2 the dose in stock. They gave me that and told me to collect the rest tomorrow. The whole course cost me £74 .... Yes !!!! Blimey...
And to top it all Jean-Luc sends me an email to say Exodus have run out of sleeping bags to hire in Tanzania.. so now I have to pay £30 and rent it here and carry it with in my luggage. That means I will have to shed some weight elsewhere.
Oh well.. just plough on.. I mean it's not the end of the World, but I could have done without the hassle.
The team are on for a meet tomorrow for beer and 2 for 1 Pizza and football in the mailbox at Bar-room-Bar tomorrow 7:30pm

Hi
Monday morning crisis – I have just learnt that Exodus is out of sleeping bags – so I have had to source out new rental ones for the 4 of you. They are £30 each and will be delivered to me tomorrow or Wednesday.
You need a lining for them. I will hand them out tomorrow if I receive them, or on Friday am at the airport.
I have paid with my card.
See you tomorrow
Jean-Luc
