Hi everyone
I hope you all have a good Easter - I hope you don't shiver too much in the UK, I hear your weather is not good. Getting hotter by the day here and the humidity is also rising. Mosquitos like to eat me still and this week I have had an army of tiny red ants marching round and through my room, I hope they managed to get rid of all of them this morning. They are tiny but have a nasty vicious nip to them.
I also got up the other morning to a poor lizard having got stuck in my stainless steel sink and beginning to panic. Like a spider it can't climb a vertical steel sink but runs around the walls happily. I wasn't quite courageous enough to pick it up, so I used an empty cereal box and put it up at an angle and it climbed up and went back out. It did mean that there were no mosquitos in my sink that morning - he had a good meal.
Yesterday was a big Hindi festival - Holi- so it was a holiday for everyone. Everything was shut the roads were quiet. If you did go out you were likely to be covered in red. You could hear partying going on in the neighbourhood.
So the children played and entertained themselves in the morning and planted some new plants in their kitchen garden. The afternoon was spent playing lots of violin - 2.30 - 5.45 all of them playing at different times.
They have also had services every evening at 6.00 p.m. as it is Holy Week - but I have been teaching. Can't go this evening either as they have move my dinner time due to other events happening. This afternoon more practices and I think they are ready for their busy weekend. For many it will be the first time they have done a lot of travelling so I hope all goes well.
The older ones have spent the morning washing and ironing, and in some cases repairing their centre uniform, as they will wear those tomorrow, Good Friday, to play in as Asansol and wear them to travel to Purulia on Saturday wearing their black and white uniforms which have also been laundered this week.The afternoon of violin playing again.
The compound has become quite busy and noisy this afternoon as about 25 students are in for a youth programme here for three days. Cricket, volley ball and basket ball all being played.
Happy Easter to you all.
