CRUNCH time

Very worrying time Mike managed to fall / trip / swallow dive / horizontally piroett off the houseboat falling 5ft onto rough concrete steps, wedging himself between the boat and the concrete jetty.... a few expletives and several pints of blood later we managed to extricate him. Following a patch up on board and a threesome shower ( what happens on the boat stays on the boat ) we transferred Mike to a local hospital. He was expertly cared for by a team of Catholic nuns. Our faith in humanity was restored by the amazing kindness shown by all the staff, Babu & Jimmy who spent the whole night attending to Mike and one of the local residents who kindly transferred us to the hospital.

Thankfully Mike survived despite copious cuts, bruises and rib fractures.
