Crocodile Tails
"Crocodile Tails", is a story about two women, one from Africa, the other British, who become friends after meeting at the school they both teach at. Gill is from a wealthy family and has come to Zimbabwe to live and learn about difficulties. She is disappointed when she is assigned to work in a school whose biggest problem is the corporeal punishment that is inflicted on the students by the headmaster. On the other hand, Gills friend (who is not named) is astounded that someone wants to give up all of the comforts that they have been given in life. The story continues and eventually the two friends split up when Gill returns home to continue her education. Eventually they plan for a visit and the story closes as the un-named friend lands in England.
