What a day.

What a day. So it was the Banda matches today, at both hockey and squash. The gaps and I were wondering around all the pitches, when suddenly I heard "Wilson?!", for me to turn around and see jack soames and tom t-d. Now, for you who don't know them, they both went to radley with me, and they're currently travelling from Kenya to SA. The were there because they're staying in Nairobi with a family whose daughter goes to banda. So great to see them, and crazy to bump into them.
Then, we had the girls squash match. Now, for a bit of context, we've only had 30 mins training. So hopes weren't high. Sadly, we lost 3-0, but was very exciting to be the solo coach! A great effort.
Then we had activities in the afternoon, which was "pre's lawn". Now this is the lawn in front of the main building, which only year 8's are allowed on. However, today was an exception where 40 odd kids were running about playing badminton, skipping, cricket, you name it.
And finally, safari simba came to talk. This is a cycling company in Kenya started up by Chris froome old coach when he lived in Kenya. Pretty cool.
To end it all off, we watched arsenal beat Fulham in bony's house (a teacher). George and I loved it.

Just another day in Kenya....

Oh, and a father arrive in a helicopter, and several by plane...as you do.
