Sunday 16th November

Sunday was the day of the enthronement of the new Bishop of Bo, Bishop Tucker. It was a wonderful service; it was an African equivalent of a family service with African hymns and songs. We both felt it was one of the best services we had been to. The Bishop also made a statement about the future which was very positive. He challenged all of the staff, clergy and lay that they must improve and he would be there to challenge them directly, a very positive statement for the link. After the service we went to Bishops court with a small gathering for a light lunch and then made our way home. As it happens we passed an establishment that was showing the Boro match. For Le500 we couldn’t resist. As we got inside we realised, that we had been charge to sit in a wicker basket, it had one solid wall and three wicker walls. As everyone will know Boro drew 1-1 with Everton, a good result for us. We finally made it back to the hotel and sat and chatted for a couple of hours. When we got into our room we both decided we weren’t that tired so we played ‘Purple Place’ on the laptop. If you haven’t played it you should. It comes free with Vista. The biggest problem is that when we tried to sleep our minds where racing with the challenges of the game. Oh I forgot to add, yes we are losers in case you ask. Unbelievable I know!
