Malc

Cos I love her words and the way she thinks. Maybe more importantly she seems like someone who puts her own troubles to the side to help/support others.

First thing i would tell her is not to neglect herself though :)

Only thing that worries me is that she seems so smart … mmmm … I scared of smart girls (only joking).

And finally she has just shown some interest in digital photography so maybe I could help her meet that goal.

Last week I had the most amazing opportunity to meet Ken Hames I suspect many of you wont instantly recognise the name but you may know him as the guy from the BBC TV series Beyond Boundaries.

In the first series Ken took 11 physically disabled people to the treacherous Mosquito Coast, escorted by armed soldiers to protect them from bandits and drug traffickers. They made their way through impenetrable jungle, crocodile-infested rivers and climb a live volcano in order to make it to their finishing line – the Pacific coast. Accompanied by expedition leader Ken Hames, they had 28 days to cross 220 miles … something that even the fittest of people would struggle to do. In the second series he took another 11 disabled people across the deserts of Namibia.

Anyway I was lucky enough to have breakfast with this guy and at least an hour one to one before he did the most amazing talk to an audience of around 100 people. He showed clips from the film and I have to say there was not a dry eye in the house when he finished.

The thing I liked about him was that he didnt once talk about himself, he only ever talked about the people that travelled with him. In doing so however he said so much about himself.

A fabulous, fabulous guy !!!!

Because she has the most amazing smile ever !!!!!!

Cos someone has to teach him the difference between good beer and shit lager stuff !!

Cos she is kind, fun, makes people laugh, a great friend to all, an artist … with talent … but who hides it.

She’s smart, and kind, and a long way away but she’s always there in the middle of the night (hers not mine).

I could think of more reasons but those will do for now. Would hate for her to think I like her too much lol !!

Ten things you probably didnt know about me …

1) You can tell if Malcolm has been hard-boiled by spinning him. If he stands up, he is hard-boiled!

2) The National Heart Foundation recommends eating Malcolm at least three times a week!

3) The pupil of an octopus’s eye is shaped like Malcolm!

4) Malcolmology is the study of Malcolm.

5) When provoked, Malcolm will swivel the tip of his abdomen and shoot a jet of boiling chemicals at his attacker.

6) If you chew gum while peeling Malcolm then it will stop you from crying.

7) Without its lining of Malcolm, your stomach would digest itself.

8) Humans share about fifty percent of their DNA with Malcolm.

9) Long ago, the people of Nicaragua believed that if they threw Malcolm into a volcano it would stop erupting.

10) The Eskimos have over fifty words for Malcolm!

Three days ago in Manchester … and next week she leaves the UK to return to her homeland. There’s lots I’ll miss about Jiana but I’m sure we will stay in touch.

Of course I captured her eyes again and then we ran off to do an impromptu photo shoot with 5 of her friends. Great fun and hopefully the pictures will remind them all of the fun time they had together.

She has cheese, olives and a banana for her dinner !!
