Dou Bula!

Strolling along the pedestrian walk in Oxford City centre, we spotted a group of boys who looked very much from home with their t-shirts, shorts and that unmistakable spot of flip flops. Louise did a cassava patch call, “Dou Bula” and heads suddenly turned. The 5 boys were serving in the British Army based in Newcastle. We found out that they were all from Suva; Caubati, Nadera, Namadi Hights, Nabua and Nakasi. They were on leave and doing a bit of shopping for family back home. It was the least of our expectations to meet fellow countrymen here in the UK.
