Peeled Apples

Evening all.

I was sitting on the decking, under the heat of an African sun, listening to the crash of the Indian Ocean as it battered the rocky shore line, whilst engrossed in the middle of a good book, when i heard the balcony screen doors slide open.

I didn't look up, but mumbled something about not leaving the doors open because we'd been warned about the monkeys pinching food and items.

The reply i got was a fairly high pitched scream from in the house (which i personally thought was a bit of an over-reaction to a bit of helpful advice)

the second scream was a very definite one if a bit garbled, something about leaving keys in the door, (again, while i recognise the need for home security it still seemed a bit too much for the cicumstances)

so, i folded my book up, stood up to go inside and was overtaken by a monkey going in the opposite direction with my dinner in its grubby little hands, being pursued by a now irate current Mrs Richardson......

so i did what any self respecting husband and father would do in this situation, i grabbed my camera and fired off a couple of photos, then changed my breakfast order....

night all
