Tribewanted: Vorovoro

Back to civilisation, on the mainland. Six girls, a few bottles of wine.. the taboo subject arose. It’s what everyone had been thinking but had never spoken about on the island. The men. On arrival there seems to be a tacit agreement that sexual thoughts and feelings are left at the jetty, but make no mistake the undercurrents are strong.

After weeks of modest dress and PG-13 behaviour the gossiping tongues were let loose. Two hours later we had married off most of the island and provided them with enough affairs to fill several Jilly Cooper novels. Don’t judge us I’m sure the boys were doing the same. It wasn’t long before prizes were being handed out and favourites exposed. Some more unexpected than others. A loose game of “who would you rather?” began, and categories included marriage, flings, and best back. Prizes were evenly distributed between team fiji and the tribe. Qualities appreciated were experience, power and general alpha male ruggedness.

The highlight of the conversation was when we all revealed that on our girly reef trip none of us had really been paying the sharks that much attention. Instead we found our eyes wandering to the man with the spear. It seems those who yielded spears and machetes all scored high, we happily went back to our cavewoman roots.

So, the crunch point. Who won what, for who, why? No names allowed but here’s some teasers..
Aviators on a maniac sugar daddy (ewww ewwww) won hands down for one particular little lady. The winner for the best for fling category went to a strong but silent type – young but hopefully willing to learn. The subject title of this blog won many prizes. He had it all – the back, the eyes and the sweet sweet singing.

Fortunately or perhaps unfortunately depending on your point of view none of us ever got “lamb-chopped” enough to pounce. Porrige at breakfast may not have gone down as easily if we had! Instead we left with new friendships, perhaps a little less complicated. Still no harm in a bit of speculation. We hope we’ve given some people some food for thought!

We love you all, the weeks we all spent there were amazing.
