Return to Botswana Having worked in Botswana for 17 years it was an amazing feeling to be heading back there for a visit after 11 years away!

Hi from Bookclub
Hi Barbara As always great to see what you have been up to. Thanks for including me. We are all well at Bookclub and enjoying a few good reads. We recently completed Jasper Jones by Craig Silvey. You may remember the last book of his - Rhubarb. This was much better. Keep me posted. Love to all Deborah

It was great to see you all again. We were very wistful as we looked at all the photos. Michael and Joel have become handsome- and no doubt well-educated young men. We sort of miss the young boys we loved in Shashe but are excited to see what the Lord will do in their lives and through them to others. You all look well and I'm sure enjoyed the trip to Botswana. The pictures were very good.

Back to Botswana
Barbara, Once again such an interesting read, and again I almost felt I was with you. Have just read your blog while I am here in Cornwall, down at Falmouth docks with rain teeming down and the wind battering the windows, but who cares. i am on holiday so it is all wonderful. We have just returned from a day at the Eden Project, somewhere I have long wanted to go. Even though the weather was pretty 'ordinary' the day was wonderful. HOPEFULLY SEE YOU AT BOOKCLUB CHEERS DEL

amazing livingstone David Livingstone.
You inspired me Dr. Livingstone. You are the hero to every evangelist, for you finished the job with very excellent. Our Lord Jesus Christ welcomed you and say "well done my son, come in to my mansion and received the reward for you".
