Good morning everyone. Actually it's afternoon here, just
I have had a busy morning.
My eldest, who has just graduated in Environmental Biology and Geography, has just been accepted on a volunteer program that will take her to Tanzania to work on sanitation and water projects for 3 months starting at the end of September. So we have been to the medical centre to get her medical report filled out and to organise the immunisations she needs and then sat down to work out some fundraising tactics. Setting up a JustGiving.com account is the easy bit!
That's pretty scarey stuff, Linda. How can you sound so blaze about it? What a wonderful opportunity for your daughter, however, I'd be a nervous wreck!!!

It's still 3 months off... I have time to become a nervous wreck. We have only just heard she got the place
She went to South Africa volunteering a couple of summers ago on a wildlife project and that was terrifying. Putting your 19 year old on a plane to Johannesburg and hoping blindly the arrangments to meet her at the other end would work. This time, she will be travelling as part of a group so it's a little less scarey from that point of view. But still...
How excited she must be! What I would give to have been able to do things like that when I was younger.

She'll have much more interesting stories than us later on in life!
Sorry to interrupt. Those who can need to ask Siri what zero divided by zero is. Or tell Siri you're drunk.
Too right! I did work for a holiday company in France when I was on vacation as a student, but nothing like this... and she is very excited Yvonne. Althought the list of vaccinations needed is enough to put anyone off!She'll have much more interesting stories than us later on in life!

I never got around to traveling much until I met my wife. I wish I'd started earlier.
I do that EVERY time!!!
I ALWAYS check my Messages first, respond to them IMMEDIATELY, then go on to my Alerts and see who "liked" or quoted me.
Only THEN do I go on to browse the forum!

"0/0=undetermined
Imagine you have zero cookies and you equally among zero friends. See, It doesn't make sense. And Cookie Monster Is sad that there are no cookies, and you are sad you have no friends."
I said I'm drunk, she said:
"Neither of us is driving you home"

I still want to volunteer in an orphanage in Africa at some point... One day. One day!!
I saw this on the local news here. Yup, that much happens here.
LOL!!!! That is hilarious!
She is very entertaining
My Siri is set for female, Singapore English. She just told me I'm a flatterer when I said she sounds sexy!

A female that's complimentary....Gotta get me one of those, Ken.
You've been alone too much, Ken. It's a phone for pete's sake. Think Raj on The Big Bang Theory. If memory serves, he even prepared a meal for two (him and Siri).
LOL!!!!
This entire convo is cracking me up... PUT DOWN THE PHONE! HEAD OUTSIDE INTO REALITY!!
