First off i'd like to thank everyone that donated before, during and even after my fund raiser event, a grand total of around £1400 was raised, i'm saying around cos i'm still being donated money from people i bump into.

So a masssssssive thank you to everyone.


I went a bought myself a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T200 (off a bloke with a 80s E24 M6 <3) so i can leave the DSLR and take this everywhere with me, and that'll be a 'Sorry i went away so long' pressent for my mum when i'm back.

I arrive in South Africa on Thursday (7th) and once i'm there will be getting in touch with the Charity and they'll start dishing out the Jobs.

Thanks again to everyone.

Lewis


PS, i'd also like to add that every single penny i raised will be spent on things like: Pens, paper, paint, brushes, wood, screws, textbooks, and other supplies.

None of it is going on my flight/food/accommodation/car hire/petrol.


Oh and also, if you click the pictures, they get bigger

Update, but no photos :(

Its been raining no stop here for the last two days, reminds me of home haa

A fews days back we went into a school to look at their library and they needed some book shelf dividers, so we decided to make some, 30 of them, they've just had their final lick of paint and are drying in the garage ready to be put in tomorrow, we've also got some curtan rails to put up there, then we need to go curtan hunting.

We also went to the Hillcrest Aids Charity Trust today and painted one of their offices/consultation room type thing, just going back in the morning to put it all back together nice and tidy.

Then next on the to do list is buy and put up blackboards, do the photography for the Trust, and do some work at the orphange, will be a busy 10 days, i'd quite like to stay here longer :(

Pics to follow

  1. Hi Lewis. Hope it's stopped raining! Looks like you've been able to do some fantastic stuff in SA and I'm sure they really appreciate what you've done. It's definitely something you can be proud of. It's hard to believe you're into your last week, but make the most of it and enjoy yourself. x
