Sarah and Si: July 2010
http://sarah-and-si.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 12, 2010. We arrived home on July 4th to a very well kept house. Only one small problem, a tree root had found it's way through to some tasty fertiliser in our drains. This led to a vain attempt to unblock it on our first day back. This acted as a timely reminder that we are now back in the real world :-) We are now job hunting, car hunting and enjoying catching up with everyone. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Sarah and Si: Nepal Getaway
http://sarah-and-si.blogspot.com/2010/03/nepal-getaway.html
Sunday, March 7, 2010. Another visa-run saw us heading off to Nepal, what a shame :-) This time it was all a bit less stressful, having obtained the official nod from the NGO. Bureau in Dhaka to get a work permit, thanks to a lot of work by the team at CRP. After scoring a free cab ride into the centre of Kathmandu with a girl who charged it to her company, we quickly set about gorging ourselves again on treats not so easily available in the ' Desh. The 'Du was a bit chillier than the ' Desh. Their lack ...

Sarah and Si: Bangladeshi Hospitality
http://sarah-and-si.blogspot.com/2010/04/bangladeshi-hospitality.html
Sunday, April 4, 2010. On Independence Day we were invited to visit a collegue's home village with 3 other foreign friends; Axel, Malin and Helen. Waking early we started off on a complicated journey of public buses and rickshaws. Which brought us to this beautiful, serene village. The match drew a crowd. at least the foreign members of the team waiting to bat did. Some members of the batting team got a little confused about which sport they were involved in.

Sarah and Si: Libby's Visit
http://sarah-and-si.blogspot.com/2010/02/libbys-visit.html
Tuesday, February 23, 2010. We were lucky enough to have Libby Proud come and visit us and CRP recently. This enabled us to put her to work in a few key areas of her expertise as well as spurring us on to see many sights that we had not got around to visiting before now. Here you can see Libby being introduced by Reshma at the Evidence-Based Practice seminar. After the EBP seminar, we headed out to visit some OT students who were doing a rural placement and joined them on a few home visits. We also v...

Sarah and Si: December 2009
http://sarah-and-si.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 31, 2009. Christmas Day started with a Bangladeshi breakfast in our favoured local food barn. Roti, curried vegetables, omelettes (without chillies for the little one) and cha all round. Our guests patiently wait for dinner that was served on Bangla time (2 hours late). Luckily there were delicious home-made dips and knitted christmas puddings to keep us entertained. Gavin and Simon enjoying special christmas beverages. Kath, intent on having angels for the tree, initially created ghos...

Sarah and Si: April 2010
http://sarah-and-si.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 29, 2010. Our last days at CRP. or so we thought. The breafast feast includes water rice (as delicious as it sounds! Which has an aroma that Sarah felt was somewhat like a wet dog! Along with the bland rice we had some very tasty fish and some excessively hot mushy things. As usual on this sort of occasion we coaxed each other into wearing our sunday best. A crowd of foreign volunteers and a few of the local kids posed for photographs. Sunday, April 4, 2010. It appears though that things ...

Sarah and Si: January 2010
http://sarah-and-si.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 15, 2010. District and National Sports. After nominating ourselves to tag along with the crew competing in the sports, Sarah was enlisted as the event Physio and Si assisted as general dogs-body for the CRP team. The day began by loading a couple of wheelchairs onto a ute! Being released from this one bag. CRP had by far the biggest team at the event. All of the competitors paraded around the arena with the assistance of the support teams. One of the highlights was a wheelchair race which...
