The Uganda Post: Good atmosphere
http://ugandapost.blogspot.com/2010/01/good-atmosphere.html
Fredag 15. januar 2010. Early in the morning the cockcrows, goats, trucks, children or alarm clock woke us as usual. It was a good atmosphere in the Norwegian camp this morning, almost everyone felt healthy and ready for work. Through the day we completed casting the foundation for walls and columns in the first dressing room. Ragnhild and Steven, who constantly are getting stuff to the building site, were getting wooden materials this day. They had found a good solution to tightening all the materia...

The Uganda Post: september 2009
http://ugandapost.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Onsdag 30. september 2009. Two steps forward, one back? We have now come to the point where we actually have both a site and an overall program for our building project. And until yesterday we also had a plan on using ISSB, buying or renting the machine, hiring a trainer, and getting money from Norwegian sponsors. But then Amritha posed some of her always very good questions and we came in doubt. Is the ISSB really so excellent? The ISSB represents a sustainable future. It is a cheaper alternative fo...

The Uganda Post: Flooring song
http://ugandapost.blogspot.com/2010/01/flooring-song.html
Onsdag 20. januar 2010. Today was ment to be our last day at the site. Because of illness, we all have come to an agreement that we will continue for two more days. This morning it rained cats and dogs…or should we say goats and cows? Lol And since this was suppose to bee the dryseason (! Rainwear was not on the packinglist. We should probably have known better in this time of climate crises! Today we finished the concrete floors in both of the dressing rooms. This was hard work, but fortunately two ...

The Uganda Post: februar 2010
http://ugandapost.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Fredag 26. februar 2010. We're back by our desks in Trondheim and now in the final week of our project. We are almost done placing all our thoughts, photos and illustrations together in a book. A quite nice book too. We are not done, but already very happy. We have had a wonderful time and faced many challenges we have learned a lot from. Thanks to all that have helped, inspired and worked with us! The exhibition opens the 18th of March. Lagt inn av Ragnhild and Andreas. Abonner på: Innlegg (Atom).

The Uganda Post: januar 2010
http://ugandapost.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Fredag 22. januar 2010. Ragnhild and Andreas has given me the task to round off the workshop blog with a sum up of the last two weeks here in Ibanda. So, what has this workshop period been like? What will I return back home with? What we’ll remember from this trip is not how we couldn’t stand any more rice with goat meat. We’ll remember all the things that make Ibanda what it is and all the things that are different, that we somehow ended up liking. And I’ll remember the chapattis themselves, with ...

The Uganda Post: The Sunday above floor-glory story
http://ugandapost.blogspot.com/2010/02/sunday-above-floor-glory-story.html
Søndag 17. januar 2010. The Sunday above floor-glory story. This was the day when our building's elevation finally rose over the 30 centimeters of the dressing room's ring beam. To se the main roof construction up in the air worked as a catalyzer on the entire group. In addition it gave the work site even more attention from curious bystanders and passers by. We've all felt the time limit approaching, and been longing for a roof - which could provide shade to make the work more endurable and effective.

The Uganda Post: oktober 2009
http://ugandapost.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Fredag 30. oktober 2009. After a week of many events, we are now taking an internet day to maintain our connections with the outside world. Thursday we met at the field, using sticks and rope to measure and mark the plan we had decided on two days earlier. This time the group actually took control and organized the work them selves; dividing areas and tasks to different groups. This was great! The core now seems to believe in the project and are getting eager. They have realized that we are leaving i...

The Uganda Post: Poem of the day
http://ugandapost.blogspot.com/2010/01/poem-of-day.html
Lørdag 16. januar 2010. Poem of the day. We were missing snow. Hottest day until now. Interrupted by a cow. Could have shot it with arrow and bow. Framework removed so and so. Ring beam revealed, made with love. Change in mood with a market trip. Strange how these things so easily can flip. We did not need more than a little sip. Of a soda to reattach a smile on our lip (s). All forgotten were the difficult construction for the VIP(read with Norwegian pronunciation). Lagt inn av Ragnhild and Andreas.
