Latest news from 'Boss lady' and 'Boss man'
I have just heard the latest news from Pippa and Ian out in The Gambia so I thought I'd let everyone know how their trip is going so far!
Last Friday, they were invited to visit the family compound of Sainey and Alhassan where they had a brilliant time. Pippa said they were greeted with an amazing welcome and that the twins were very well and delighted to have them as guests in their home!
A week later than expected, the container ship finally arrived! The paperwork took even longer to organise than in April.... however after two wasted days waiting at the dock thinking the container ship had docked when it hadn't, it has been successfully unloaded today! Pippa and Ian are off to the North Bank tomorrow to deliver equipment from the container to Bakalarr, Jarra and other schools there.
More news to come when I next hear from them!
