Day 10. I now realise just how much I am not used to manual work. Spent the morning painting and the afternoon mixing concrete by hand and then carrying it to be laid. That together with a concrete mattress means that my back is complaining big time! I am shattered tonight. Here you are just filthy dirty all of the time. I also have two names here. Most call me Will but some including some of the staff call me Pappa so I have to listen for both in case they call me. There is a basic respect here for people who are older and alas compared to other volunteers that means me. They are very thoughtful and considerate towards me.
Tomorrow I think I am going to Phuket to meet one of the directors of the board here and then on Friday I have my first full day off in two weeks !!! Hope to take a one and a half speed boat ride to one of the islands but more about that later. May not blogg tomorrow as will wait and see what happens. God bless everyone. Thanks for all your support.
