We had an adorable baby goat born a few days ago. a bit premature and very wobbly. the mother was very protectiv3e and squared up to anyone who went near the baby. They were kept separate from the other goats for the night and we had a terrible rainstorm in the night but it was still OK in the morning. Apparently goats are tough which is probably why there are lots of goats and no sheep here.
I visited the primary school again yesterday. I enjoyed the journey on the bike in the morning with the sun on my arms and the wind in my hair but it was spitting with rain and colder in the evening so far less pleasant coming home. For anyone confused by the reference to bikes, it is the only way of travelling on a taxi bike. Or I could walk for one and a half hours of course. I still get looked at as we race along muddy trcks past people's houses but generally everyone is very friendly. This is the politest and friendliest place I have ever been in.
We open the new school a week on Tuesday and there is still much sawing and hammering going on. We have the local MP and councillors coming as well as representatives of the charity that are providing the money for the school. The various clubs in the school are doing preentations and we have been busy making powerpoint prsentations to show the guests.
Looking forward to a hot shower when I get home and a plate of chips. Funny what you hanker after when they aren't here.
Bye for now,
Pat
