I've been having lessons in the ultimate African skill of carrying things on your head - with no hands to help out!
I started with the empty esky - perhaps I overestimated my ability! I thought I had very good posture and balance ...... but no luck. It just kept on falling straight off! Although Rita could do it perfectly. She carries a 20 litre container of water on her head everyday from the water tap to her house.
So I had to go back to basics - a small basket of onions. Yay - I could do it! Easy! So I'll keep on practicing and gradually build up - I'll master that esky - watch this space!
