October / November

Most of the other volunteers have left  as the temperature has risen sharply to average round the mid to high thirties. The pace of life slows here so it isn't so tough.
Rocky arrived yesterday in his old Leyland with his dog "Ned." Ned has to be the biggest dog I have ever seen! He weighs over 80 kg and is under 2 years old. He's  a huge  gangley slobbering mutt. When I went to pat him he put his mouth over my arm (which worried me a bit)
Last week the papers reported an incident where police stopped A car being driven by a 13 year old towing a dead donkey. On the back seat they found A .22 rifle, a shotgun and a high powered .243 rifle.
He must have been taking the donkey home for the tribe to eat.
