The last agruement and never to be seen again

26th Feb
The previous evening Dave had booked a taxi for 0730 hrs to show us the route out of town.
Before 0700 Dave asks can we leave at 0700 hrs I agree as long as he cancels his booked taxi for 0730. I ask Dave again 3 times and then we have an almightly row and shouting match and thats the start of yet another non communication day. We leave town 0705 hrs and get clear of the town but for two and a half hours Roly spends the time chasing Dave in the distance. Dave stops in a town but Roly sees him too late so stops about 500 metres further on at the petrol station. Dave wants coffee, we fill up with fuel and Dave asks for half the local curency (200 Sols). We are still not communicating so leave ignoring each other. Roly in then lead this time, after two hours Roly stops by the side of the road in the middle of the desert for lunch and waits for Dave so we can sort our differences out. Finally Dave arrives but waves and drives past. The original plan yesterday was to head north to a beach hotel for a couple of days chil out. I spend the rest of the day looking for Dave in towns I pass though and at petrol stations but I crack on until 1800 hrs and find a nice small town called Pacasmayo. The sun is setting, there is a nice surf beach, a pier and a good 3 * hotel. 1st hotel with a basin plug! Room 80 Sols a night, I e-mail Dave and tell him where I am and then discover 5 minutes later that he has been e-mailing me.
Dave´s e-mail says he is leaving and he had enough of me and will now travel alone. He finds me annoying. To be honest it is amazing we stayed together for so long. We are so opposite in every way and want completely different things from the trip.
Today my speedo cable broke 50 kms south of Pacasmayo but I need to buy some tools now to replace it as we had been sharing some tools.
I spend the evening having a few beers overlooking the sea and considering the consequences of Daves Action.
I´m annoyed that we didn´t communicate and that it ended like this and we didn´t have the chance to say farewell to each other.
