Mid March Mina

I have been in the village, school and hospital. Met Garofita at the kindergarten. John Afuza was in the flat  upstairs and listening music there. Met the head nurse and some other nurses. The snow is melting slowly. We all hope for the spring to come. Been around the hospital took some photos. The washing machine we bought in December works fine, and the washing line at the back of the hospital is full as always.
Had to make this visit, as from tomorrow the road tax is expiring. See the photos below.

8 March Int'l day of women

so I left my wife to have some time off and enjoy her time during the afternoon with one of her friends.
Obviously the kids brought their usual flower buquets for the school and kindergarten teachers.
I have installed a sattelite dish, to view English channels. It took me quite a while, but it was worthy. I can view now many Christian channels too.

Mina today, end of February

Met the head nurse, the doctor, and some nurses today. Explained the situation with the Christmas gifts. I have found out that only a third of them were sold, about 100 pieces, so another 200 is still there in UK. Perhaps this years's Christmas. Also explained about the current financial situation and  charity visiting.
I was told that the Irish people been at the hospital, gave fruits for the patients and also food for all the villagers.
Met Garofita at school, which you can see on the photo it does not look good, the walls I mean.
The hopsital's dining room now has a flat LCD tv and the shed next to the flat now has the fabrics removed for the winter time. It will be back in the spring.
It is still winter over here, quite cold and not much activity locally.

Wheelchairs

"Joni and Friends" is going to visit Romania, and Brasov area this summer. Our pastor has been offered a lot of wheelchairs for disabled people. I was told that any person who may need now a wheelchair may get one - so that means that any people from Vulcan and Mina are who is disabled and is in need of a whelchair can get one later on the year. If anyone has suggestions let me know please.
