27.11.13 Wednesday The sun has arrived.



Very hot today, we were woken up early by the sun shining through the bedroom windows. Mr Jallow wanted the lunch money for December as they have run out of supplies, so we set off with Kebba in the truck to the turntable,(that's roundabout in English)  Kebba  is back at Naata today to finish the cementing..  We met with Mr Jallow at the bank and I went in to the bank to withdraw the money whilst Steve and Mr Jallow waited outside.  All transactions completed, we drove to the Kololi area to deposit money at Trust bank for the well contractor to buy the parts for the work at Jamwelly.  Both the pump wells there have problems with worn parts and the water only coming out at a trickle, so it takes ages for the ladies to fill their containers.  We then called in at Yashmina’s for a cold drink and to watch the world go by for a while.  On the way back home we called at the storeroom to pick up items to deliver to Nyofelleh tomorrow morning, and essentials for Naata.  Back home to make up the beds in the spare room for friends arriving on Saturday, and making sure everything is still working in the house bathroom.  Steve is still trying to get the pool back to its blue colour, the green murky colour is proving stubborn and after 4 weeks of trying he finally gave in and called the pool men to come in the morning.  Tea at home and then a relaxing evening.
