I have finished working on the film. The last two days of shooting were at night which was a little scary, because Kibera is a notorious area after dark. I missed the first night of shooting because I couldn't get a lift to the location - they started at 5pm and didn't finish until 6am! So I was quite glad I missed that one. But I did make the final night of shooting and it was good fun. There was nothing to be worried about in the end. We were filming in an enclosed area. All the problems from the previous night had been resolved and we were done by 1am. After the last shot, the crew celebrated with a few beers.

This week I have been relaxing at home again - until yesterday when I got a phonecall from Tusker Beer, the nation's favourite beer. Apparently they are looking for white males, in between 25-30 years old for an advertisment that they are filming next week. So this morning I have just been down to the studios for an audition! It took all of five minutes - I was informally interviewed in front of a video camera. Luckily the part doesn't demand that I deliver any lines - I would just be part of a crowd at a football stadium cheering, and no doubt enjoying a crisp, cold Tusker beer. They will let me know in the next few days if I get the part...how bizarre.

In the mean time, I am helping to arrange a 'rave' that will take place on the 3rd of September. There are plans to go to a lodge in the foothills of Mount Kenya with about 40 other people for a big all-night party. I'm in charge of finding and hiring a sound-system which is actually quite difficult considering no companies here seem to have web-pages.

More soon...
