After fairly steady and welcome rain last night and this morning it cleared and the school playing fields became the arena for football, netball and volleyball matches with crowd volume to match Wembley! Great enthusiasm and fun had by all.
Later in the evening in the school hall we found another group watching Arsenal on Match of the Day satellite tv on a tiny screen, again with great enthusiasm.
We enjoyed a lovely meal with Gabriel [the Kisiizi Surgical Consultant] and his wife Maureen who came with their two small boys. It's good to start to get to know more people here. Other visitors include Medius, one of our nurses, who is getting married next weekend and has invited Ruth and Beth to be "maids of honour" at the "Give away" ceremony which will be the day before the wedding itself.
Our water is all running again which we greatly appreciate and so far no power cuts this evening. The internet link seems fine so we enjoyed a skype chat with my sister Claire in Australia, Hanna's father and sister in Holland and Mark in UK - amazing to have such links when we recall in the past being here with no communication with the outside world at all.
