Today started with abit of a late morning as I was waiting to have a conversation with Mr Jalloh about the use of a vehicle. It got to 10am and just we were about to give up he turned up. Said if we could wait five minutes and we could have par Jalloh in the brown machine. We took him up on the offer!
When we headed up to the Cathedral, Duncan tried to get the information that they would like him to put on the website. The funny thing is he hasn’t done a website for about 6 years! We then added antivirus’ to their computers and off we went. Next on the list of jobs was to call at Western Union for Loz, all would have been fine but as I got out of the car I lost my shorts, Bad times!
Lunch was next on the agenda, back to Mamasu’ for Chicken and Pork along with a star beer of course!
We then called at the YMCA for a money change a stupid photo opportunity. I’m sure you will all see it eventually. Then on to the orphanage. We had a wonderful visit there, we were welcomed by Henry and Binta the directors and met with all the children. I then explained that the purpose of the visit was to give them some money donated by Arif, one of Dunc’s colleagues. They were over the moon to receive it, it will go towards the daily costs of the orphanage! Dunc then presented them with the t shirts donated by CIC. Our final part of the visit was to go and view their land that they are trying to build a new orphanage on. It will cost them another £12,000 to finish the project but the money doesn’t come easily!
What a fantastic and emotional day!
