It was a stark reminder that not so long ago this Communist State had been in a steady flux of war that children of their age would have been fully involved in.

It looked like there was a child army outside, armed with everything from little pellet-shooting pistols to full on semi-automatic plastic rifles. We also noticed that Laos children were obsessed by toy guns, and the standard of toy guns was incredible. We could watch about 80 metres of the boat races but that was about all. This was followed by all day the next day, meaning that I, and again, bless her, Helen, missed out on the absolutely huge celebrations that were going on outside. Within three minutes I had devolved into a baby pissing, shitting and puking simultaneously, all of which in the quietest possible way as to not wake my sleeping shitstress.Īll night I was in a right two an' eight. We watched a Family Guy that we had downloaded onto Hel's iPod and she drifted off. She'd made a decent recovery, and could take on a bit of liquid now. I felt like a bit of a bastard, but as I found out later that night, fate was to have its revenge.Īfter a nice meal, the name of which I cannot remember but translated as 'The Drunken Mess', essentially a bit of everything thrown together, I went back and tended the best I could to Helen. I actually went out anyway, leaving my poor girlfriend to wallow in a state of emptiness inside and out in the room and went up to meet the guys for a bite. Right before we went out to meet them though, she took a turn for the worse. I made his death as painless as I possibly could.Īrriving back at the hostel I found Hel getting dressed, she was obviously feeling a lot better and had had a chat with some of the girls that we were meant to meet for dinner. After a few hours of searching, my incredible sense of direction failing me at every turn, I had walked about four miles, got nicely burned, but had found it.

Therefore, the right answer of this riddle is a glove which is not alive but have five fingers. It can be surgical gloves, kitchen gloves, hardware gloves, and many other gloves.

The posse that had been on the bus with us were meeting up at six for a meal, and I told them that we may be able to make it if Hel felt any better.ĭuring the day I went in search of the hostel that we had originally planned to stay in, Ed and Nicky had planned to be there and we had also told Helen's mate Tori from the University hockey team that's where we would be. People wear it for various purposes and it fit in the hands of humans. I tried to be the best nurse I could, and by the late afternoon the worst of it had passed. Helen, however, was just feeling like shit. After half an hour it was obvious this wasn't going to happen and I went out on the search for some rehydration tablets or powder, which I got from a pharmacist not too far away.Īs it turned out, the next three days were to be the biggest festival of the year in Luang Prabang, and throughout the day people were setting up stalls for food, drink, games and toys for children, preliminary long-tail races were crashing through the river that we were right on top of and there was a general feeling of excitement and fun from everyone in the town.
