A Helping Hand

Today I finally managed to catch up with Chris Stevendale. She wanted to pick my brains about blogging and even though she only works on the floor above, we had managed to miss each others calls and emails all week. I popped up after break to give her a hand setting up her blog for a forthcoming trip to South Africa only to find out that the Exc-el website was temporarily out of action. By the time I had returned downstairs the website was working again so I did my best to run through the screens and correct buttons to press over the phone. Hopefully Chris managed to make some sense of my ramblings and I eagerly await her report from the African schools she is visiting. I was lucky enough to visit South Africa a few years ago, I found it an amazing place, full of contrasts, but the overwhelming feeling amongst the people was one of hope.
