Only six days before I leave Sanga now, so I have begun treating myself. Ice cream flown in by helicopter? Double squirts of Fairy liquid when I do my washing? Two bananas with my weetabix? No, none of these things.

I’ve been treating myself -and this will only make sense to parents and friends of a certain age…(dear children of All Hallows, you may stop reading now)-and only now because I didn’t want to inflict homesickness upon myself earlier on- I’ve been treating myself to….the 8.00am news on Radio Four Live! Oh, bliss, oh rapture! Oh, the wonders of the internet! How I love my little modem!
