Have had a great few days no rain so temperatures have been
getting very high 35 degrees plus. Been out and about mainly in service, and
also went out to seldom worked territory today, was really good had lunch on
the river with a large group of local brothers and sisters.
(Biddy and Adrian be careful on the trip up from Francis
Town to Maun, in two weeks time, as we were on it today and there are goats,
donkeys and cows everywhere, and it is a very narrow road, with loads of
muppets driving trucks to fast.)
A friend of Nelson and Ingrid's arrived yesterday, John
Ziebart, turns out we have met
him and his sister in London when he gave a talk at our old cong in Ealing. So
was good to see a familiar face and we look forward to catching up with him in
London some time.
We also went to the local Nandos last night, and after
ordering Extra Hot and sitting down the kitchen guys came out to check I had
ordered it, must have thought our Western pallets couldnt handle the heat, but
turned out to be very nice, apart from the actual piece of chicken which was
skinnier than an anorexic pigeon.
Will try load a few more pics in the picture folder so you
can see a bit more of what it looks like here.
You will see a picture of a Baobab tree in one of them where
we parked for the day, this was next to a local outdoor court/chief's meeting
place, we had to ask permission first before we spoke to the locals. Ended up
having an awesome day.
I have a meeting tonight with the local cong, as they have
kindly got me involved in the plumbing alterations and maintenance on their
hall, so this Saturday we will be fitting a new guttering and water storage
system for the hall. They also currently have no sound system as it has been
stolen for the fourth time.
