Just on cue, as I’m beginning to ease into a relatively quiet evening, Daniel appears with a huge cut in his foot. Emmanuel is on hand to translate and help out. He suggests using petrol. Or agricultural pesticides. Apparently this is what a lot of Rwandans use. When I questioned how effective and healthy this was, Emmanuel responded: “Ah, they are very good. They kill many animals and things on plants. In the morning your cut is better.” Interesting. And perhaps an explanation for some of the more bizarre characteristics of some people here. Anyway, he's all cleaned up, minus petrol and pesticides, bandaged and socked reading for the dispensary tomorrow and possible stitches...
