Over night we had the biggest loudest bed-shaking thunder! And rain that was so heavy I was worried the young trees Innocent and Peter had searched out were going to be washed away! But no, all intact today, the sun is HOT again and little Gerry is stood by my knee nursing one of her babies. Today it’s an old soda bottle! She’s so cute 🥰! I think there might just be enough room in my case to squeeze her in when I come home! 🤗

I mentioned trees. In the past when we’ve been involved in building work where trees have had to be removed, I’ve always tried to replace 2 for 1. Since my last visit several trees have had to be removed so I vowed this visit to make sure others were planted to replace them. Paul planted several in Kasozi and the ones Innocent bought yesterday are to be planted at Good Luck Junior School tomorrow, which will also be my last visit to GLJS. The trees were selected for various reasons. Some for maximum shade cover, some for fruit, (mango and jackfruit) and others for investment, the soft and hardwood trees. Must remember my spade!!
Yesterday I got my friends to stand in front or under the larger versions of the trees that are in Innocent’s and the garden nextdoor.
