Today in History

World war one begins Damp is my dugout Cold are my feet waiting are the whizzbangs to send me to sleep Song for the day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntt3wy-L8Ok

Congratulations

Best wishes to my friends Chris and Rebecca on their anniversary 15 years ago. It seems a lifetime ago. I remember a very hot day. The Vicar saying you may now kiss the Bride is an Americanism Thanks to the nice person who found my wallet and returned my mothers credit card.

July

In the Northern Hemisphere July was historically a hungry month. Food stores were exhausted before the harvest. People ate nettles and foraged. July is a bleak time here in Lima. The weather is damp. To damp to dry clothes. There is no hot water. The traffic heavy and classes postponed. It is a bleak winter, where people have not seem to learnt the joys of large fires-hot food and light

Round up

Achieved one of my life's ambitions. I have uploaded a copy of the map, from the battle of Tunes. Into my age of Empires game. Hurrah! I note that Age of Empires may have been released on the same day I returned from the USA. I had a tough week. I lost my phone. I cannot now whats app The Change in the weather has hit us hard. I am listless from  the cold. My Baby daughter  has a fever. Which disturbs her sleep and thus our sleep I was late for a class. They sent the students home

A long Week

A long week. I have started a new class in another district of Lima. There has been a lot of toing and froing  The  new class is in another institute There atmosphere is very different. I was inspected. I hope it went well I ended up forgetting my phone I have a terrible head cold. I took the dog out tonight. He fought  with Hatchi for an hour. One of the other dogs. To be honest I am happier when he fights with Hatchi. If Thriller is losing he is staying out of trouble The Baba is fine! She sings along with us
