Landed in Newcastle 13th January. Only a temperature
difference of 30 degrees!
Great to meet our new grandson, Jamie. (Latest photo
with oldest grandson, Jack) Extra treats include warm showers, flushing
toilet.................and bacon butties!
Brought back Anne's laptop for repair - still within guarantee
period. PC World proved MOST unhelpful - no chance of turning round the
repair before we leave again on 31st January. PC World technical
department referred me to their Customer Service Department who referred me back
to the technical department. Guess we're in an endless loop! Found a
local company, Falcon Computers, who have been extremely helpful. - problem
sorted! Had arrived with an ext(p)ensive list of IT purchases -
needless to say, Falcon Computers are getting the business!
We return to Cameroon on 31st January, and hopefully to Zidim
on 1st February. We say hopefully as we don't know whether or not the
flights from Yaoundé to Maroua are operational - nothing to do with transport in
Cameroon is reliable!
