VSO

As we were leaving the site this young lad passed us going up the hill to Nonko. One of the usual unusual sights we see daily. How he got it up on top of his head I have no idea!



On our way back from the site, we stopped off at VSO (voluntary service overseas). We had heard yesterday from Chrissie of Inkuru Nziza that VSO are involved in Secondary schools including technical schools. This brought the hope that they might want to be involved in our NGO joint project with the Scottish Colleges.


We dropped in to their headquarters at Remera and we have arranged to see Mark (or was it Mike) on Wednesday.

Since Inkuru Nziza have 5 or 6 skills centres as well it would be good if we could get some agreement to undertake some development work with the Colleges.

After we had visited there, it was a short taxi ride home, or it would have been had it not been for my helmet flying off when we were doing 40+ mph. As usual the straps are hopeless, and it landed 30 yards behind me, fractured the face vizor, and I had to run the traffic to get it back off the road.

 I am now thinking of buying and carrying my own helmet - has to be safer than these useless ones.

  1. Great visual picture of the helmet flying off - needs a re-enactment to catch it on camera
