New Twists and Turns



One of Malcolm’s activities is installing a new stores system. One of the users is Mode (pronounced Mow-day), our stores and production manager. 

This week we had our first batch of a new twisted leather bracelets completed ready for sale which Mode recorded on the computer.




Meanwhile there were problems with our wi-fi Internet service in the cafĂ©. One of our regular customers, Darlene, also helps to maintain our service so she met with the local manager of  Halotel (our Internet provider) to explain the problem, which might be that 2 routers may be getting themselves into a twist!!!.



As many of our staff are physically disabled an important part of the building is the ramp connecting the two floors. This was in need of some maintenance so Stevie was tasked with repainting the slope.




On Saturday Malcolm visited the home of Julius, one of our tailors, who had his tricycle upgraded with a petrol engine a couple of weeks ago. For safety the tricycle is stored in the lounge of Julius’s 2 room house.



Malcolm was on the way to Kibebe farm, owned for many decades by an English family and run along English lines. He took with him Amy, a Canadian about to return home, and Antony, a Ugandan who is working in Iringa for the next year.
















There is a wide range of livestock on the farm. The milking shed is mechanised and the cows wait patiently for their turn.

 



It was Antony’s turn to meet a horse for the first time.
