Friday 20 July




Just taking a break from sanding, scrubbing and painting to keep you up to date with the latest news from Malawi. We started early today at the centre, painting the main room. It's having a 24 hour make over and in best changing rooms style we will have before and after footage for you all to see when we get back home. (We're still waiting on Carol Smillieeeee to appear!)
We're all sleeping well in the accommodation. Gordon and Al have settled in very well and have the cosiest little nest which is very well equipped- washing line, cup a soups, hot chocolate and kettle. Last night they turned out for dinner in splendour wearing matching neck wear- fetching red bandannas!
Thank you to all who have posted comments so far on this site. Gordon is really chuffed to hear from Emma and wants to reply personally but is out visiting the Limbe office this afternoon.
Tomorrow we hope to paint the murals and are spending the afternoon with the kids doing crafts, parachute games and teaching them ceilidh dancing. We are all looking forward to visiting Living Waters church on Sunday. We are already practising our African dancing but think we should stick to the Scottish Country dancing!
That's all for now folks.......................
