Virginia is home

The other news is that Virginia is home and reunited with her beautiful children and family. Her mother, uncle and children were at the airport to experience the joy of her return and Virginia returned with them to the village for a month to recoup and restore her heart!

There have been a couple of emails from her but access is to her computer is limited in view of power supply issues etc - the big news is that the boys have apparently grown! there's a surprise!!

Virginia has however been in touch with the Malawi Revenue Office and we now have a time frame within which the shoes must be freighted so the pressure is building a bit. We have 3 months to get them to her to ensure additional duties and taxes are not incurred.

We have decision to make regarding format for freight and transport both to Malawi and to the village. Any ideas will be gratefully received!
