breakdown

After a day spent at home doing bits and bobs of work and doing Karaoke with Wethu in the evening, we went into the office on Thursday, expecting to go to Mmanoko. Unfortunately, the combi (which Lee and Peter had left in earlier) broke down when it was about 10km from Mmanoko (we hadn’t left yet because Martha was still searching for a vehicle). Therefore actually going to the village was abandoned as an idea as it was getting too late and there was no way of getting the food to the village, and poor Martha instead had to find a vehicle with which to tow the others back. It goes to show how much they need a new combi - this one is from 1986 and despite a nice mechanic fixing it for free, it just isn’t up to doing the work it needs to do. We went home early and decided to call it a day and chill with some films instead of stressing about it all.
