Life on the Front Line

While I was away in Cape Town for a few days I received the following email from Sonja, which is pretty typical of life in Bulungula...

Hi my love



Hope you slept well.



All fine here. Xolisa is ill though so we may need to close the ELC for a couple of days – will see how things go today.



No eggs yet, but Goose is looking decidedly broody.



While hanging up the washing (hand washed!) this morning, I was nearly run over by a horny donkey who was chasing the object of his desire. I think she ran to me for protection (who wouldn’t, considering the size of that thing!), and I barely managed to get out of their way! Perils of hanging washing in rural villages.



Have a great day.
