Holding the boom during filming a short documentary about the problems of water supply in Freetown and the surrounding area. The nearby village of Lakka, where the Environmental Foundation for Africa has its headquarters, shares the water supply with Freetown. So we have water every second day.

From the boat that takes one to Tiwai Island which is 12 square miles of 'virgin' forest, although there was some habitation at one time and during the troubles in the 1990s, the rebels destroyed the Visiors Camp and Research Station and consumed many of the 12 species of endangered primates. But everything has been rebuilt and the primate population is increasing and the foliage and birdlife is flourishing. A magical place!

Chatting to the chief of Kambama village, which is where one gets the boat to Tiwai Island.
