Another trip over.

Just returned from another trip to Sierra Leone where as usual I had a great time.
Spent a lot of time this visit laying in the beach soaking up the sun, although I did identify a business opportunity that I will definitely follow up on, more of that once it gets under way. Suffice to say that the authorities in Freetown have made it much easier to start a business there than it was previously. All rides on selling the house here in the UK and getting rid of the missus who is still stringing out the divorce. Not sure what the record for streaching out a divorce is but it is now 2 and a half years since she started proceedings and I have a decree nisi to show for it.

Saw some fun things whilst laying on Lumley beach, first there were the fishermen who I have mentioned earlier. Here they are landing the catch,


And stowing the nets,


It seems an awful lot of work for a few fish,


But these ended up on my plate that evening.


Other fun things seen on and around the beach include a couple of spiders,



many lizards like this,


and this.
