There I was preparing everything I had learnt from Jordan, how to interview using a semi-structured approach, ready to guide my interviewee through the questions, allowing them time and freedom to express themselves and expand upon the many important issues I was to raise, and then.....................the little red light on the recorder stopped flashing.
Sinking feeling, panic, despair all within 2 seconds. Only had to rewind it (metaphoricallY speaking) and it was OK.
First interview succesfully completed, transcript typed up and big smug look on face. This is easy, bring on the PRA!!!!!!!!!
Forgot to tell you all, when I left Paola last night I got Tuk-Tuk (look it up if you don't know) back to my house. The kinf\dly gentleman driving the Tuk-tuk enquired as toi whether I like Sri Lankan ladies. Now this is a bit of a catch 22 methinks. If I say yes, he take me to meet his "friend". If I say no I am insulting all the lovely ladies of Sri Lanka. its late and I am faced with a moral (or is that morale) dilemna. (Where is Alp when you need a bit of advice?)
Anyway, I explained that Sri lankan ladies are very beautiful and lovely,but right now I am tired and would like to go home.
Don't know why, but I thought I would share that with you.
Have a nice day.
