African diary.
You must all be wondering how we are getting on with the health centre, I must confess that it's not very fast! Well, anyone who has lived in Africa will not be surprised, things always go slowly. We spent six weeks in England, and virtually nothing happened, although we had left money and instructions. Somebody had begun to dig a deep hole for latrines that we had not asked for. Colin went and had a look and decided it can be made deeper and turned into a well, luckily we got back in time to make the change! We did want toilets constructed but the flush type for in-patients, well it was nearly right. The minister who is supposed to be organising people to work, has had visitors almost ever since we came back and has not found anyone to get on with the building. Some people are busy building new classrooms for the junior school that were not even mentioned before we left.
