Having set up camp at the foot of a large buttress tree I decided to climb it in order to gain a better view of the camp and hopefully retrieve some eggs of which the major was so fond, apart from the time he ate a bad one and remained locked in the khazi for a full 48 hours. Halfway up I came to a large hole in the trunk, my curiosity getting the better of me I inserted my head. Seeing nothing I tried to pull my head out, unfortunately my blasted pith helmet became jammed, pulling harder I lost my footing and ended up hanging 30 foot up in the canopy by my chinstrap and beset all on sides by angry bees.
