The fire brigade arrives with horns blaring ...always late when fire has broke out to near by houses. But how to squeeze the hose through the mass of interested onlookers

Fire in Mori's Garage. Male . Something exciting than serious for people as hardly any interesting event happens here. More gaping onlookers and firemen and police trying to keep them at bay.

18 Miles to Vaadhoo
working as a field officer these days ,waiting for the boat at 7:00..calling colleagues not turning up on time.the boat leaves at 7:10.with just me and my assistant.we are on a mission to cover two islands up north at Raa .....Vadhoo, Ihavandhoo and Goidhoo ....... in the banishment atoll 0f the sixties....isolated beyond dhiraagu.
The weather wasnt particularly rough but a stiff wind from north west with a counter current going west created a rough surface of heavy bumps on the 18 seater 200 hp twin engined gulf craft for two hours before we got to the Baa atoll fulhoi ......was woken up of a sudden slow down at a big unhibited island. the captain said that the gps says it as vaadhoo an inhabited island.vaadhoo is up north way up north said i from tims map and this is only Vandhoo.
Still 18 miles to vaadhoo.
welcome
