And that involves a ride on one of their Jet-Skis! (I'm re-living my 1999 holiday here...)

While I, who have never been to Ghana, will relax the double posting rule while we remain in Ghana.

As it would be tricky for me to try and include the canoe-boat trip through the reeds to Mzulezu stilt village (wonderful though it was), I'll get us on a bus back to Accra.

Somehow, you get onto the roof of a taxi bound for Kotoka International Terminal 2 without the driver noticing. It's been a lovely trip, and you board an Air Burkina flight for Ouagadougou.

Bakel Airport in Eastern Senegal. You notice some radishes being transported to Aldi UK in a cargo plane. You hop on and nine hours, and 1000 radishes later, you end up at a regional office warehouse in Chelmsford, after being transported from plane, to lorry. The journey plus the radishes have made you sleepy, and after falling asleep for a few hours, you wake up to find you're in the back of a lorry, still covered in radishes all wrapped up in shrink wrap in a delivery heading towards Aldi, Bishop's Stortford. It is now 6.15am on Tuesday, and I (Rhys) am working an early shift. The delivery man drops you off in the warehouse, where I see you.

You work alongside me from Tuesday until Friday, when we clock off at 10.30pm. After waking up from a nice sleep on my floor on Saturday, I drive us into Stortford station for the 09.09 Stansted Express service to Liverpool Street. The meet isn't until 12.30pm but I suggest we ran into London early. We then take a nice shiny 379 into Liverpool Street.
