There is sad news to report today.
I'm afraid that Mitzi the cat has died today. She was quite old, and very ill. She will be missed from the Barjami household.

On a lighter note, the ambulance which Ruth and Steve Courteny from Reading have worked so very hard on fund-raising for, finally arrived on Thursday. It has been passed on to the hospital here in Saranda, and will be used especially to reach the hard-to-reach places. It is a very well equipped Land Rover, specially adapted as an ambulance.
Today Richard and I visited Jorgo, who is house-bound, due to suffering from Multiple Sclerosis. I had been kindly given a donation of 300 pounds from 'J.P. Gainsford Associates' to buy Jorgo a wheelchair so that he could be a bit more mobile. Well - that arrived with the ambulance, and today we took the wheelchair to him. He was smiles from ear to ear, and was so very greatful. It was a great moment.
There was fighting at Cuka today. Lots of it. Bedro - one of the ladies at the church - had managed to get a very large pile of clothes from her family to distribute at the gypsy camp, but it was like the first day of the Next sale. It was crazy!!! I've never heard such shouting and screaming over a few items of clothing!!
Last but not least... A big thank you to Ruth and Steve for bringing various bits and bobs, including a little parcel from Anna. Safe journey home.
