Diesel Protests - Down with this Sort of Thing

I know there isn't much point in adding to Brian's comments since he has managed to detail the events of today in his last blog entry. Basically, nothing has happened today as per reason that the country is in protest regarding the lack of Diesel available. In reaction to this, nobody can get about the country because of road blockages. Hence all travellers are stuck where they are.

We had been promised by some locals absolute anarchy, with full scale riots and shootings. Eager to be with our brothers on the front line, Gorms and I decided to head towards the city centre. We couldn't have been more disappointed... Kids eating ice cream, families enjoying their day off in the park, I was disgusted.

We moved from the Town square to a tourist office and booked ourselves in for a trip to the jungle for a few nights. Gorms is encouraged of news about natural remedies that will be available there for his hemorrhoids. I agreed to keep an eye out when we get there, whilst he rubs his arse against the bark of a tree simulating like a cow with an irritating itch.

Post booking the trip, Gorms decided to go for a haircut and I joined to document the transition from halve beast, half animal, full monster to diplomatic impersonator and well respected local of La Paz excluding tash.On upon treking the streets, was like a scene from the Godfather, with local traders offering Don Gormally a sample of their finest produce. He's come a long way.

Check out the pciture below. I noticed that they have captured my image at the local stylists and its been a popular choice amongst the fashionable young men of La Paz. I smirked to myself when exiting the establishment, and didn't even ask for the royalty comission. Bless...
