I'm Not as Young as I Used to be












10th March,2009

This morning my back was aching so I adged two asprin off the lady who runs the gift shop. I went out on a game drive with six other people. A group of four women of Irish origin and a couple from Holland. We had a very close sighting of a rhino and her calf who was suckling. One woman was very keen to see the giraffes but our only sighting was from a great distance. we did, however, have a quite good view of the hippos in the lake.

There was a braai (barbecue) in the evening which involves huge quantities of meat and sausage accompanied by such dishes as potato salad. I had had enough of jolting around in the Land Rover and I didn't attend.

I'm Off to South Africa!

I am so excited! The date of my departure to Durban, South Africa draws ever nearer. I fly from London to Durban on 7th February, 2009 and will be there for six weeks.

I cannot wait to meet up with my dear friend and Manager Donnette Davis (http://www.staidenhomeschool.com) who has arranged the book signings for me. I've never been to this part of Africa before although I have lived and worked in West Africa. I knew many ex-patriot South Africans in the pre-Mandela era. I am so looking forward to getting to know the country and its' people.

"Tales My Ghanaian Grandmother Told Me" Strategic Book Publishing New York New York is my first book so never before have I done book signings. If anyone can give me some do's and don'ts for these occassion I would be most grateful.

I'll keep you up to date as to how everything goes.
