All quiet on the (North) Western Front

It’s been pretty quiet in Atamelang these past few weeks – mostly catching up on circuit work and doing assignments, with many a game of Scrabble and Backgammon in between (possibly too many – we do need to get out more…) So it was great that Collin and Claire came to visit on Wednesday. Other than that, just looking forward to our trip to PMB at the end of next week.

In case any of you were wondering just how cold it gets out here…

PMB

On the 6th May 2007 our nephew – Matthew George Bishop

– was born and on the 31st May, our niece –

Hannah Rachel Shacklock was born. Pretty good timing on their parts, as it meant we could sneak back to PMB for a few days between Jabavu Mondays and meet them.

We spent a great few days in PMB with family and catching up with some friends, and, of course, being devoted aunt and uncle. Now, we are back in Atamelang and have a four week break from Jabavu. So we’ll be hanging out at home, catching up with work in our churches and doing some assignments. If you’re ever in the area, feel free to stop in…
