TWO MONTHS in UGANDA.

2017  FIRST  INSTALMENT.

Pat and I arrived at Entebbe airport last Wednesday  February  8th at lunch time.Godfrey Taxi was there to meet us and

 whisked us off to the bank to change our currency and to buy tables and chairs . We checked out two sources and decided to buy three small tables and twelve plastic chairs for our sewing groups .These eventually arrived in Masindi too late for our first session on Friday evening!

On the Thursday we went to Kabalega Primary School to meet Headteacher Millie and Deputy Roseline.Although not all the pupils had reported for the New Term we decided to choose the neediest girls to form our sewing circle.We made three groups of ten and insisted Teacher Lucy and Head Millie attend to learn so that they can carry on when Pat and I leave. Most of The first group of ten girls have very poor motor skills and I had to take two girls work home to undo! Our next group of ten was on Monday evening and what a difference the newly arrived tables and chairs made! A picture will follow but it was so stressful setting up the first sessions ,(no keys,taxi late,noone expectant us etc) that I had no time to take pictures!

However we did manage to get pics of both Junior and Ismail buying shoes for their new term in  Senior Two.Pat and I seemed to spend an awful lot on the boys " Requirements '! _ sugar,& soap etc.
