How time flies! On Thurs. we realised that we still had computer problems so we called for the repair man. He arrived about 8:30 pm and worked until 11:30 doing a backup and a complete cleaning of viruses on the backup then strippng the computer of everything and reinstalling windows and the various programs. I told him I would update the virus checker he installed, (‘Avanti’ for you computer geeks), and the printer files.
Friday I went into town with Jotham to transfer money from the US$ acct to the Ksh, (Kenyan Shillng), account and get cash to pay bills. I then paid some bills and bought a printer cartridge and a ‘Flash Drive’ to back up files for Robin’s Nest.
Going into town we took bicyles to the corner then caught a mini bus into town. Coming back we used a ‘piki piki’ which is a 3 wheeled motorcycle with an enclosed driver and passenger compartment. There was one passenger when we boarded and later a 4th passenger got in front sharing the drivers seat. It was only 20 Ksh each to go to the corner, then 20 each to return to Robin’s Nest on bicycles. It’s more because it is up hill.

In the morning Eva and I went for a walk to the corner of the highway A104 to visit some of the local stores and learn what each one carries. Not a great variety. It takes about ½ hour to reach the highway. There is a small market as we approach the highway that has a little more variety and some of the stalls have some hardware items. On the way back we bought some tomatoes from a small shop.
In the afternoon Eva worked on the payroll due the end of the month while I built a workbench in preparation for other projects.

The numbers at Sunday School were down today and we only had 6 in the Bible study. Most of them did not have their own bible and they were different translations. We didn’t have enough to go around so they had to share. Hopefully enough money will come in to buy some, (550 shillngs each, about $7.50 Cdn.)
Eva and the Bible Study Class last week.
