What a thrill, my first ever brand new car.
Licensed to have fun. What a spoiled girl and a big vote of confidence in a big, busy future. Tim is
endlessly generous.
We had a hectic 5 days at The Wild Coast sun at the KPMG Africa conference. Each day was packed to capacity with meetings and functions and opportunities to meet extraordinary people from all over the world. There's never a boring day where KPMG is concerned.
James has finished his gruelling GDA year at last. I'm sure it has been worse for the supporting team than him. He spent 5 days last week on the Orange River with 65 of the other GDA survivors.
He flies back to Cape Town tomorrow, then head off on a month long road trip across South Africa with 4 friends on Friday. This is exactly what he needs.
The Link@HA Jack opened 4 weeks ago, after almost a year of hard, committed work by the Centre Manager, Nicky Elphick, Nicky Franklin and their band of remarkable women. They have a fabulous, enormous room and 80 signed up volunteers. This is our 4th centre in Joburg and we have another 2 which will open some time next year.
We have formed an exciting relationship with the Sunday Times, who have an initiative called `N'alibali, which means it starts with a story. They deliver their supplement to our centers every week and each child that we work with goes home with a book. One beautiful child, Belange, (beautiful angel) was thrilled to tell me that she now has 3 books. Laugh or cry?
Nic has been in Glasgow on business.
Ali has had a wild week writing 4 monster exams. He has taken it in his stride. 2 more to go, then almost 3 months van. He's off to Bali with a bunch of mates for 3 weeks.
