Welcome, welcome, sorry about the mess

So this is my blog, it's mainly about Africa and the fact that I'm going there, but it'll probably go on many a tangent before I'm through. Enjoy reading about my adventures, I know I'll enjoy having them.

time, time, time see what's become of me

need to change the time settings as all my posts say i wrote them three hours earlier than I actually did, it thinks I'm still in England.
An invisible biscuit is on it's way to the first person who can identify the song I stole this title from.

English class is interesting, what do I teach to a load of people who already speak English? They just fire questions at me about why English is so unnecessarily complicated, like do we really need 8 different words that all mean big? For that matter why is there only one word for synonym?

By the way mum and I did an experiment-not sure how much it costs you to text me but i don't pay to recieve tham and it costs me less than 10p tp reply, so now you've no excuse...

It seems that I have paid 20p per unit (60p for three units)but I don't know how many characters make a unit - thats on O2.

Hope that helps anybody who wants to text you Wendy.

Can't identify the song - would love an invisible biscuit though - how many calories. Please send one for me.

Wendy, I actually am in England and I dont know what time it is half the time- and I rarely know what day it is either. Except today is St David's day and I forgot to buy a Daffodil.

Hey, after the op I can stop the painkillers and be normal again

You could always teach them wendy language. I'm sure thats a form of english just as sarah language is! When they ask you about why english is so complicted you could ask them why Swahili isn't so easy. Anyway, how good at english are they? How old are they? I'm sure there must be something that you can teach tham. Just keep thinking.

YOu could have them read poetry - you could get a real good lesson on English Eccentricity by Jenny Joseph (When I am old I shall wear purple with a red hat that doesnt go etc etc)

Do I get an invisible biscuit for that suggestion VBG

Is this where i admit that I feel a total heel as I asked for help and we looked on the web. I'm so sorry but it was the temptation of the invisible biscuit that corrupted my thinking! As a penance, if anybody got the right answer, if they wish to send their address or call at my home, I shall provide them with a visible biscuit covered in chocolate.

Love You Wendy.

Mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Just out of curiosity - it is world book day here. which means it should be world book day in Kenya as well, since Kenya is part of the world. What do they do there for it, and do they make the children and teachers dress up as story book characters

Liz - being nosey as usual
