They actually play netball
This is a picture of one of the 'posts'. Its mostly straight. The girls, the girls being the teachers and tailors so the 20-26ish yearolds who work at the centre, play netball... with a soccer ball... and wooden posts that arnt straight... on a court with stones and thorns and dying grass. But now at least they know that Mizongus can jump! Mizongu is what they call white people, not sure what it really means, maybe best I didn't ask. Netball was way fun though, course with my natural resistance to cardiovascular activities I was now to be stiff and sore for the next two days.
I met Pauline who was the main teacher there. She like Eddy was a lovely person, makes me a bit sad thinking back now about them. They and a number of others were all wonderful people, but their lives were hard. You want them to be blessed with something at least slightly better, as its not that bad, but some of the luxuries of modern life would not go astray.
