Day 65

Today we started with our intensive computer workshop. We had put our 4 day course into 1 long day. It lasted from 9 to half 2 with a few breaks throughout. It went quite well, better than our 4 day course. Unlike our Thursday course everyone seemed to get the hang of what we were showing them it just took them a little while. 1 guy was really good and understood it all, he just couldn't control the mouse and couldn't find the letters on the keyboard, he was in his 60s and had never used a computer before. I was quite impressed, also this class had a bit more character, they were a lot more chatty than on a Thursday.

We finished the class and everyone was really greatful which was nice and it was good to do something that could impact on people's lives. We were then joined by Selwyn and Densel, together with Joe we traveled to Parrow. There is a football league set up here on a Friday evening by 1 of Joe's old friends and Joe had asked us to go a long and do a session. We did a nice shooting session followed by very speedy speed ball. South Africans don't shoot, we've found that out, so we decided that each speed ball game would be 1 minute long, we then increased it to 90seconds and it was no surprise that we only saw 2 goals. 

Tonight we are off to spot night at Joe's. His monthly community get together. Which is why I'm writing a bit earlier today. It should be good and I'll tell you about it tomorrow. Hopefully tomorrow we are hiking up Table Mountain, but we have said if the weather is poor we will go up in the cable car later in the day.
