Share Your World 26 August 2019

Here is my contribution to this week’s Share Your World from Sparks

If you had to sum up the whole human species in 3 words, what would those words be?

Unique, gifted, confused!

Where is the strangest place you’ve relieved yourself?  Obviously in an emergency situation.

When you pitch your tent in an unfenced campsite of an African Game Reserve it is not advisable to walk around at night – not even to go to the long-drop toilet.   If you need to go, it is better to take your trowel, dig a hole and have someone stand guard with a torch.   I have had to do this on one or two occasions when the urge could not be ignored till morning.  The problem is, the duty guard is always my husband.  Hurry up, he will say.  I see eyes – probably a lion!  This does nothing other than to produce nervous giggles and a perfectly natural function becomes the most difficult thing in the world to perform.

What is the worst smelling place you’ve ever been?

Strandfontein Sewage Works.  It can pong if the wind blows a certain way.  But it doesn’t stop me going there! It’s a beautiful place and the birdlife is prolific.

 

How drunk is drunk enough?

When you’ve had enough to make you a little merry but still know you shouldn’t drive.
