Monkey and Dog curl up together at the Country Side Hotel in Bo, Sierra Leone. I'm not really into animals but this monkey with a very long tail does look quite cute snuggled up with a surprisingly un-mangy dog!
A rather old (DFID funded) sign. I just love the "Condom Tours Safe Journey" bus...
The newish chopper that takes us to and from the airport in under 10 minutes! It has a good safety record... so far!
Back home... back to DIY... which shade of white shall we choose for the kitchen?
This Thurs and Fri are kitchen painting, then this weekend is our kitchen fitting experiment! Soooo this time next week it should look a lot more like a room... I hope!
Lavender and Rosemary make the place seem slightly less like a building site... we also have strawberries, thyme and sage and some "tumbling toms" and sweet peas (from the Urb Farm) which need to go into a hanging basket.
Ta da... the oven of glory hath arrived. It is a thing of great beauty and wonder... especially when one has been deprived of an oven for the last 4 months. The only sad thing is that one door is slightly scratched. Fortunately it can be changed without too much pain, so the kitchen fitting project can go ahead as planned this weekend, and Rangemaster will come out next week and change the door!
