Ahhh technology...

Our telephone line has died. The Ethiopian telecoms people are no doubt making us a high priority and with speed and efficiency will fix our line asap. Dream on. At least there are two internet cafes here, although "connection speed" is not an appropriate term given how long this is taking me.

In brief, I have now lead my first two sessions as a HDL and I feel good. There's that familiar teachers adrenalin buzz of leading sessions of 27 people. We have also started Amharic lessons with one of the college staff.

Must stop now. Will probably take five minutes to log off.
