I'm going to Freetown in Sierra Leone in September to work with VSO in the Ola During Children's Hospital. It has very few resources (no X-rays or microbiology!) so will be quite a challenge. Along with looking after sick children I also hope to be training up Sierra Leonean paediatricians and nurses.

Thinking of the Sound of Music and the Terminator movies

So long, farewell... but also - I'll be back!

Well that's it, I'm off tomorrow. With my huge bags (very pleased about the 40kg baggage allowance - I would NOT have managed with the 25kg that VSO allows!)

The next time I post I'll be in Freetown! All very exciting. Sad too - its been a sad week of farewells. We've had a nice relaxing time of walking into town, nice dinners and into London to visit the British Museum and Imperial War Museum and have some dim sum.

Last night tonight - off to watch X Factor for the last time - although we have to go to James and Jo's to watch it as our TV is on the blink - good practice for me!

Well auf wiedersehen, goodbye! See you all soon xxx
