What is it with taking coffins? My first coffin, there was about 70 fellas in full tribal paint complete with spears etc etc. I made the naive mistake of telling them they had to wait at the gate and not go out onto the apron. WRONG. "It ish da law brudda" as seventy distressed fellas head out towards the 210. It took not less than half and hour to get the 50m from the gate to the aircraft, and another 15 min to manouevre it in behind the seats. They were leaning all over plane, and making out to throw spears at it and whatever. Sure was an experience having spent all my life in a town which didn't have any indigenous brothers.
