Anyone for a game of football? There’s no electricity in this village in South Sudan but there is a generator and football hall – what more do you need?

Dan and Jodes... in Gulu, Uganda 
I get my laptop back tomorrow with a new hard disc. Look forward to a decent catch up. Where’s the guest room in the new place? I’ll be in touch shortly. It’s Homegroup tomorrow and Marriage course on Weds. Greetings from Ricky Love – Philip Xx Sent from my iPhone

Guest room not in the hut, sorry, but attached to our neighbour’s place next-door, will make sure it’s ready for you when you visit 🙂 Feeling the Ricky love, looking forward to chatting and a proper catch up soon. x
thats really homely looking, I really like it! thinking of you guys and looking forward to hearing your new stories this year xo
Thanks Cassie, don’t worry, will be inundating you with stories 🙂 Same applies to you though! x
Love your tukel. that all looks so cosy and a plumbed in loo what more could you ask for!
Our thoughts exactly! Although could possibly ask for a neighbour’s rabbit that doesnt sneak in and eat our sweet potatoes 🙂
Is that an outside shower ….and almost an outside loo?! How romantic Jodes, it is like the outside showers in those romantic holiday huts in the Maldives, except no hot water. What more can a girl want? I bet Dan loves sitting on the throne in the midst of nature
Yep Sook – an outside shower and an outside throne too 🙂 I did actually see a baby snake fall from the tree and land next to me whilst sitting on the loo. Thankfully it was quite a little one so we killed him pretty quick. Nice place to sit on the throne – no need for air freshener since it’s outside – another bonus!
Your cute little home would not look out of place in the Shires …. next door to Bilbo Baggins 🙂
Writing to you…..
Got your email Sue – thanks! Yes it is a little Shire-like 🙂 Have to duck a little (especially Dan) under door frames. No ring though but many interesting adventures begin from here.
