Where to begin?

First up this keyboard´s toss so excuse the lack of proper punctuation. How the hell is everyone? It´s been a while. This jungle lark is absolutely fantastic. I´m loving every minute of it. The group´s really sound and the work is hard when it isn´t raining. Thereçs so much I have to tell you but it´s not really possible to condense it down. I´ve learnt loads and can´t wait to get back. Içll write properly tomorrow when I´m not so knackered. As we are limited to three beers a week whilst on camp we had a bit of a blow out last night on the first night of the midphase break. I got in at about 4.30 this morning and then got up at 7 to go white water rafting today. The rafting was immense. class 3 and 4 rapids for 40 km. We got back about 30 minutes ago and now I really need to find a fillet steak... no meat in any camp meals as we have no electricity to store it... have one or two larger beers and then sleep like the dead. Içm covered in mozzy bites, tick bites god knows what bites. Packing up for midphase break I found a wandering spider in my rucksack that had laid it´s egg sack under a shirt collar. Lucky not to get bitten really.

I´ve also applied for the internship to do another phase after this one. I should find out about that quite soon so Içll keep you all posted.

Mmmmmmmmm, meat.
