Thick and Fast Lasts

T Minus 35

As we enter the last 5 weeks in the UK the lasts come thick and fast.

  • Today was Anita’s last day at work and Bekah’s last day at school.
  • Tonight is Anita’s last Band Practice for Woburn Sands Brass Band.
  • Tomorrow is Bekah’s last Band Concert
  • Matt and Bekah both did their last paper round today.
  • This is our last weekend in MK
  • Sunday is our last Church Service at St Mary’s.
  • Tuesday is my last day at work

After what has seemed ages – suddenly we are approaching the end. Life is unravelling before us – as it must before we leave but it is a little disconcerting! 20140718-221851-80331620.jpg

Weekly Photo Challenge: Containers

A submission to this weeks challenge : containers.

So much of our lives at the moment revolves around containers of things – as we make our move to Tanzania. Containers for storage, for dumping, for selling, for giving away.20140718-182017-66017972.jpg

All so we can fit things into cases for our flight.

Totally Tropical

T Minus 35

I love a good thunderstorm me! A real humdinger with all the sky ablaze with lightning and full of the sounds of thunder. We don’t seem to get them much in MK. Indeed as far as I knew the storms were due over Friday night into Saturday, but here they are at 3am on Friday morning and I’m wide awake and blogging it 🙂
I imagine we will get some fantastic storms over Lake Victoria and Mwanza. Looking forward to it.20140718-033158-12718937.jpg
