The children were given the task of finding solutions to current environmental issues affecting the area.
Watching over the approaching fire as it races across the landscape, destroying everything in its path.
The lodge staff worked tirelessly to prevent the fire from encroaching further towards the buildings and their homes.

Leading a session by example, taking the John Terry role in defence (no, not sleeping with my team-mates mrs).

Dan /Laura - great pictures - fantastic to see what life is like rather than just imagine it - thanks for putting them up. You both look well which is a relief, Sun down over Chikwa Village looks a bit different to a Saturday night at Snobs... do they play any good tunes?
ReplyDeleteGlad to see as you're getting older your dropping further and further back on the pitch - the only next place after centre half is full back - ask your old man. Chopper Hemmings.
Been looking at the map for a while now and can't spot the deliberate mistake - give us a clue. I'll go for a KFC in your honour this weekend - what would you like me to order... Money is no object!
look after yourselves... keep the pics and blogs coming - we love 'em

Thanks for the comment Greg! We don't seem to get many and I wonder if anyone is even reading!
ReplyDeleteI can't lie - I did a practise match with the kids last week and let them pick the teams. I was put at right back! Not even a choice in it. Felt I did the Cafu role, which was great.
Some good Malawian tunes about, have put some on my laptop so will share on my return!
As for KFC ... don't tease me!
Love to the fam for me.
Dan
