Swift Update.

Thought I'd use an afternoon off from school and take advantage of the internet when it's in one of its less malevolent moods to give you another update. Strap in.
Sunday evening was spent huddled round Moses' TV watching an Idi Amin documentary. He just got his generator back from the fixers, so he was eager to get it fired up. All was going well, we were having a good old laugh at the psychotic freak (seems to be the way Ugandans deal with it), when all of a sudden there was a "pop" and clouds of smoke started pouring from the TV. Moses dived for the TV to turn it off even as Amin continued to talk his nonsense on the screen. It turned out that the generator was turned way too high and the TV just couldn't handle the power. Oops.
On Monday I sat in on a few classes while the rain came down outside again. I'm starting to feel a lot more involved in the classes and in the school as a whole. I even got enlisted to teach a class about rivers in Uganda tomorrow. Do I know any rivers in Uganda? Yes, one. The Nile. That's it though. Should be a fun class.
I also sat in on a class having a debate of sorts about Yoweri Museveni, the current president of the country. Based on the student's arguments I made the decision that he was not a good leader. I might get arrested for such statements, but I felt it was my right to be truthful.
Today there was a meeting for all of the "real" teachers. So, us white folk waddled on in and had the run of the school ourselves. Not a great many students turned up, but it was a fun morning all the same.
Right that's me done. I'm off to study the rivers of Uganda.
