The photo is of some of the children eating their meal in the "Dining Room." The menu is the same every day-Rice and stir fry!!!Week 3. It was a hard day at the office today. The regular teacher didn't appear until 10.45am, so they were all mine until then. Come to think of it, they were all mine after she arrived too. I have seen so little of her while I have been at the school, she is definitely on Thai time. The teachers are supposed to be there all the time to help with translation, but as she has no English, it probably doesn't make much difference whether she's there or not. I had a really good day with the children though, and I feel I am making some progress, but I was absolutely "done in" by the time I returned to CCS House. Dale and Melissa work together in another school, so they find it a little easier. They can bounce off each other as they go along. I found out today that the next lot of Volunteers ARE coming. Some of them arrive on Saturday, and there is one lady called Joyce, who has been allocated to my school just for a week. It will be lovely to have some help, and perhaps more ideas and input into helping these lovely children learn English in my final week.

Plenty of news in these latest blogs. your typing speed must have increased. All is well in Margate Street. I returned home on Sunday 7th Dec after 580 Km on my compliant crank. It went really well. The riding was hard and I have been pretty wacked for two days after getting home! but the wshing is done and the family room has been restored after the new floor was put down. The flooring company want to start on the lounge on Monday 12th Jan and complete it that week. Street Christmas party is this Saturday and all the notices are out. love Col
