Alfred: for a guy who spends his days whining about how little work he has to do, you'd think he could use some of it to update the blog! But, truth to tell, you aren't missing much, life has been very quiet recently. It now looks like English training has been postponed until after Christmas which is going to cause havoc for Ruairí as he volunteered to be with the new VSO intake for about ten days in January - tough choice. Given Martine is leaving on January 21st, no bets are being taken on which option he is going to go for given the choice .....
Christmas plans are well afoot - ten of them are off to Kibuye together for three or four days (I say 'them' advisedly as I don't think his Lordship has any plans to bring me along. He is already having sleepless nights wondering how he is going to cart that mountain of electronic equipment he seems to bring everywhere with him up to Kibuye and back via Kigali. I mean, it's only four days and he is going to be with friends, and Martine, and wonderful scenery, and beer - does he really need a laptop, MP3 player, Palm Pilot, camera, surge protector, recharger leads for all of the above??). At least he will have time to write his blog instead of leaving me to take up the slack!
Re the last blog entry by the way, a slight correction - the prize for the District for being number One in the anti-corruption listing was one million francs (€1,250) and not ten million as Ruairí reported. It is going to be spent on a staff outing, possibly to Gisenyi.
OK - I'll start nagging him again, watch this space!
