Well here I am, Newmont gold mines and the dumper trucks are HUGE I feel like a borrower in Hamleys toy store in the boys construction toy section everything here is seriously big! especially my backside so everyone keeps telling me I even had a woman sit next to me today because she wanted to sit next to "the big white safety lady" hmmm Thanks - I think 😊 - what I dont understand is why are the africans not fat? they eat so much food!!! and then they say to me that I dont eat enough.
It is sooooo hot here I mean 40 degrees hot, forget getting the BBQ out you could BBQ a steak on the pavement.
I became pals with a cat yesterday and I saw him again this morning, they apparently keep hundreds of cats here as pest control, this is common in Africa, he was quite happy to be fussed over I called him Mr Newmont, this morning he was busy chasing a lizard up a tree.
I am teaching a new group in Safety rep training, they are a lively bunch and are very open to debate with each other which shows that they are all listening and are emotive about the subject
I will hopefully be able to upload pics tommorow
have a great evening
Lisa
