Belated birthday to Janet
Hi Janet and family, it's great to read about your travel to Suda. I worked with a few Sudanese people in a project early this year. Very nice people. Did you pick up some of their language? Happy belated birthday, Janet. I only got the blog address from Mary today. And happy Christmas too. Sydney is hot and sunny but rain is coming.
