It's not easy gettting a daily email from a ghoul.
Just like our 7pm conversations in Moni about the blood spattered odyssey that is Peruvian daily life, Ali is now making sure I don't miss out just because I am here.
This morning I got .... 'Senor Michael, on the way into the cafe this morning I saw the most horrific accident right by the statue of Martin Chambi (Cusco's most famous modern son) (picture shows precursor of Salvador), someone got horribly run over'.
It all sounds quite shocking and sympathetic but I know Ali loves it really.
Monkey eating Miriam is even worse but she never emails me.
As someone who knows Cusco, you don't want to get run over by the Martin Chambi statue, it's on a blind roundabout* by the bus station and lorry park.
