Soup stars and strings. Monday, February 13, 2006. Well, beth and i were in the flat, working away when the doorbell goes. So beth got up to answer it, and lo and behold, a man with a beautiful beautiful bouquet of flowers and a bottle of wine! Could it be-one of the mishbeth receiving an early valentines? Alas, the man spoke "does helen aitken live here? Still-tommorow awaits my first valentine's date in a long time. Just a shame it's with the dentists ;). Posted by michie at 11:43 pm.

soup stars and strings: December 2005
http://michie333.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Soup stars and strings. Friday, December 30, 2005. Hee, i thought from the lack of comments, i was either unloved or everyone had suddenly found better things to do with their time. But turns out in a bit of a blonde moment i'd managed to change my profile settings without realising, so i had to moderate comments first. didn't even know i could do that! Dear oh dear, it's not rocket science! Posted by michie at 11:02 pm. Posted by michie at 7:20 pm. Thursday, December 22, 2005. Sleep in heavenly peace.

Friday, 13 July 2007. One little boy was loads of help clearing what we were digging and moving our soil about. Its so great to see a little 12 year old boy so willing to help out. So our holes were dug (one by me all alone! Our trenches were dug and evened out (straight lines are very hard to keep to) and the whole area was levelled out and grass removed. We then left the playground at about one. We decided to head off to the swimming pool to clean off and relax. Thanks for your prayers, hope you are en...

Sunday, 15 July 2007. Sunday 15th July 2007. Today is Sunday, not that you’d know it, because we were up early as per usual! Due to a minor oversight we had run out of breakfast! So, once we were happy it wasn’t a plan to make us fast on Sunday, we were in the van winging our way to a little island to do some outreach at another children’s club, (and a lovely local fresh breakfast was picked up en route). 8221;, the “oooh oooh”-ing seemed to extend far into the next verse! I enquired of the project leade...

Saturday, 21 July 2007. Wednesday 18th -Saturday 21st July. This post contains three days worth of news and therefore is really really really long… hope you’re sitting comfortably…. The last few days have seen Team 2007 in a more restful, playful mood. Sometimes even we need to take a break from our hard labours. Around mid-day three days ago, after yet more playground building, we all piled into the Geoff-mobile and headed for the costal town of Sihanoukville for some R&R, Cambodian style. It was a lyri...

Saturday, 28 July 2007. Sunday 22nd- Thursday 26th July. Sunday 22nd July 2007. We left Phnom Penh on Sunday morning with much excitement from some members of the team who were looking forward to a delicious snack on the way – this being the Cambodian delicacy of fried tarantula and fried frog! I discovered the best way was to get the tarantula in one go to minimise the time for hesitation and worry! They actually didn’t taste too bad – although the hairy legs were slightly off-putting! 8217; We were ble...

Monday, 16 July 2007. Monday 16th July 2007. Today began with yet another 5.30 start. After seeking out bricks, string, lunch, water and fruit amidst the mayhem of the early morning market traffic, we began work on the playground. It brings me joy to update you of the answers to prayer which we have received regarding the weather! It is soooo warm! So I hear you guys have rain over there? What an experience in the scorching heat. Hope this has kept you informed and please do leave a comment on our Blog!

Tuesday, 17 July 2007. I have reason to believe that the cockerel outside my window is getting depressed. He is regularly getting defeated by the group of Brits that wake up earlier and let out louder shrieks than he. The only difference is that ours are not attractive to anybody. The first prison was a woman and juvenile prison. We were greeted by a picture of boys playing. These are conditions that are not suitable for an adult, let alone children and babies.
