an easy way for friends and family to keep up with life on the dark continent or wherever we end up...

Back up and running...

Apologies to everyone it's been over A YEAR since I updated this thing and there's been plenty happening in the mean time...

so a belated MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR, HAPPY BIRTHDAY etc to everyone!!!!!!!!

I've literally just put a whole YEAR's stuff up but I think only the latest blogs show on the screen to start with, so if you go over <== there on the left side, there's an archive where you can find all the old ones. There's a few at the start of 08 in Nigeria, Zanzibar in May 08, then our move the US, Canada in Sept 08, Cuba in Jan 09 and Guatemala and Mexico in Easter 09, enjoy...

Ikaare School Building

While it's all go go go down the creek at Ishahayi, things are starting to get going at the Ikaare Junior Grammar School as well. IBSF has managed to get some funding together to start constructing the new school building (you can get a full 8m x 24m three classroom building for just under $14,000 AUD here - bargain)


The old building built in the 80's was completely useless
so we had to knock all that down and start again


It also turned out that half the foundations had never been built
(probably why it fell down in the first place)
so we had to rebuild all that too


now, after three weeks, we're starting to get somewhere
- hopefully it'll be done before the wet season really starts...
