Sports & Social entrance, 14/10/25

A nice combination of shapes and textures on this one I think. Not that I am commenting on James’s texture. He’s just having a fag.

Welcome back

Friday 1st July 2016, 5.25pm (day 1,772)

Calan's, 1/7/16

Gradually, the businesses damaged in the floods of 26th December are reopening. This is Calans, a small pub in the town centre that only opened in the first place about a month before the flood. Welcome back indeed, the beer inside is very fine (free advertising).

The ‘Bula’ party

Saturday 18th May 2013, 10.55am (day 632)

Bula party, 18/5/13

‘Bula’ means ‘Welcome’ or ‘Hello’ and you hear it a lot in Fiji – because they are very nice and welcoming people. Each 11am, when the Yasawa Flyer turns up at the resort, the staff gather on the beach to greet the new arrivals. It’s the major event of the morning.
