As you might guess from the pictures, my farewell party has now happened - what I remember of it was great, lots of dancing, not too many speeches and yet more presents for me – including the statuette below, , which by all concerned (except me) was declared a dead ringer of me in my chief’s outfit.
So what will I remember? Well I think it will take a while for all the impressions to get sorted out in my head, but I will not miss the dust, the mosquitoes, the cockroaches, the dust, the power cuts, the water cuts and oh yes, did I mention the dust? What I will miss is the beauti
ful hilly, jungly scenery, the big sky so full of stars, the music, the food (well most of it, I never did get to like cola nuts) and of course most of all the friendship of the people here, which although overwhelming at times, will live with me forever. It’s quite remarkable to me that in all the two years here I never once received a hostile or jealous reception, even though most of the people I met are dealing with poverty and its effects on a day to day basis and to them I was the rich white man. I have promised to come back in a year or two, ostensibly to monitor progress, but it will really just be to see all my friends again. I also will miss meeting other VSO volunteers, a very mixed bunch from all over the world, but all dedicated to the task in hand and in one or two cases quite inspirational – those beekeepers in particular – look out for that 
So that’s it, I hope you have enjoyed this little blog, perhaps it has made some of you think about doing some volunteering sometime, I would recommend it, I have had a great time – here’s to the next big adventure – ciao - Duncan

When I was hurt in that automobile accident my life would be changed forever. Sadly that driver had no car insurance and I was going to be hurting for ever.
This was not time for me to start and guess what to do. I had to find a good lawyer to help me get what I needed. After all, my family was counting on me.
How terrible was it? I has bedridden for 9 months, I had to have constant care and my medical bills went through the roof!
Gratefully, I found a good referral site to help me.
I will post more later this year to tell you more about what I have been going through.

Another issue that you must stay on top of is price fluctuations from the bookmaker. The prices for placing bets do not just change with different bookies but even with the same. You cannot take it for granted that the prices that are quoted in print like the Racing Post will be valid at the time of the event. With sports betting things can change very rapidly so be sure that the price will be honored before placing your bet otherwise this can seriously affect the outcome of your arbitrage sports betting.
Another way of identifying the best sports betting odds is to examine the money lines on the various sports books online. The quickest and simplest way to understand how to compute the odds and comprehend how the money line bet works is to take into consideration the amount of money one would have to bet in order to win one hundred dollars. Normally this figure is shown as a negative and a positive with the negative number indicating what one must wager to win x amount of dollars and the positive showing what one would win.

On the other hand if you were to lose then you would wager twice what your original bet was. According to proponents of the system, this strategy will eventually enable you to win the bets you place and when you win you would recover all your lost bets plus one unit profit against your initial wager.
And finally, in the first article in this series I mentioned being honest with yourself, because one of the biggest lies I have found that a tremendous number of Bettors are guilty of is denying to themselves how many times their Base Bank has been busted! If you too are guilty of this, please remember that until you face up to the truth with the determination to do something about it, you can't expect to turn the situation round in your favour.

During World War II, the Old Trafford Football Ground was severely bombed, leaving United without a stadium.
