Its beginning to look like Christmas... NOT!
The sun is back, and baking heat reigns.. Power outages still bug the island, in fact Koh Samui and Koh Phangan were without it for 4 days straight... so we should think ourselves lucky that we are getting sporadic bursts of phone connections and power.
I was still going on back to back courses, until 1 night, where I hit a brick wall. A very strong fever kicked in as I was sleeping... I was shivering uncontrollably, but burning up... balance was screwed up, and I had my first ever migraine (Jeez, they suck!).
The next morning, I could hardly communicate... I felt so ill.. besides the balance, fever and migraine I had backache, chesty cough and knee pain... not much else that could go wrong really.
Jen had to go down to the dive school at 6am (phones were down) to tell them my students needed a replacement. My students were given a fellow instructor, and they all went and had a whole dive with a Whaleshark... how bloody typical!
So, for 2 days I could barely get off the sofa and do anything but squirm... and moan...
4 days in, I am still pretty much house bound, but now well enough to concentrate on some UK work. Last night, I rode down to the dive school in the evening to see Jen and that exhausted me...!
Getting better by the day....
