Hi Guys!!!! This is my first post! Hope it works!!!!
I want to share with you one my many memorable experiences so far. Today, I was helping to teach at Tigers Club. I was helping two boys to read a book, then helping a young boy write. The smile and satisfaction all 3 boys gave when they got a word write was unbelievable. Definetly something I will remember for the rest of my life.
After teaching, we left for Tuddabuijja in a jeep with many other Tigers Staff. Half way there, just as we hit the dirt tracks, Will and myself decided we wanted to travel on the "Boda Boda's" (mopeds). I'm not kidding, this was better than Nemesis at Alton Towers (and cheaper!). I'm not sure if at anystage over the countless bumps and humps if the Driver, driving without a helmet (as was I - Sorry Mum!!!!) went less than 30-40mph!!!!!!! So much fun!!!
We then arrived at Tuddabuijja, and after being given a tour by 7year old Lopez (who spoke immpecable English - better than me) we shared in the festivities.
Following the service and meal, HTC FC played a match against the Tigers Staff. The banter had been put far behind us, and we all got stuck in!!!! It was soo much fun, but very tiring! After going 2-nil down in the first half, we clawed our way back (thanks largely to residents Godffrey and Tized and our driver Ronald(o!) we won 3-2! What an atmosphere though! There was no bitterness (accept maybe from coach Alfred!!! lol) and everybody thoroughly enjoyed the day.
Well, if you managed to read through this monster post, I would like to thank you all for supporting us, and hope you are all enjoying England. I hope to post another blog soon, but can't promise anything!!
