Well this is a novelty – being able to email from the comfort of our own front room. This almost forgotten facility is brought to us by the kindness of the local telephone company who have only taken two and a half months to work out how to get two wires from their exchange to our house three miles away – well done lads! People keep telling us how lucky we are as others who have applied for a line have often left phone-less only to have it installed just in time for the next people to move in. So, for all those of you who thought we had fallen down a big hole or been eaten by large animals with sharp teeth – sorry, but we’re alive and well and living near Nelspruit. We have been able to get the odd message out to a few from the office which we asked to be passed round but for most this will likely be the first you’ve heard from us in a good while. Please excuse us then if you’ve heard some of this before.
So now you know we’re still alive we’ll set about the task of replying personally to some of the 300 messages we had in our inbox when we finally downloaded. We’ll do it in a purely alphabetical or chronological order so please don’t be offended if we don’t get to you for ... a while. We may be some time….!
