busy old week

Sorry, it has been along time, well on Sunday we celebrated our pastors 10th anniversary at the church which is quite an achievement here so we had a 4 hour service in stead of 3! We had a really nice do in the evening until it rained and everyone had to run for cover in the house, it was still very nice, very cosey. He is such a quality man and he really has caught the vision of the project.

I had to have Monday off work as it was a bank holiday as on ex-president died and was being buried that day, but he had been in exile for 20 years so mixed feeling sabout him coming back. Things are heating up here politically as well as we have elections next March and the current president Museveni has been in power as long as he can but has got the rule changed so he can stand again. It was though it would be a dead cert that he would stay in power, but an opponent of his who has been in exile has come back to Uganda and is going to challenge him. So could be some interesting stuff kicking off in the next 6 months.

things are really beginning to happen with the project, the bushes and trees are growing nicely and we are looking to get the first training room built by Dec so we can start in Jan, yeah!! I cant wait, get very excited about it all really starting.

I haven't forgotten about the photos, I realize there is a lack of them but still haven't worked out how to transfer them from my new camera, will keep on trying, and in the mean time you have frodo to remind you all of me!!!
