    Oh Buffy, how exciting!!! What are you doing to celebrate? :T:T:T

    May point Niccatw in your direction if you don't mind. I know she is thinking of going abroad with VSO.

    I'd be happy to chat with her, Butty. Thanks for connecting the dots!
    Sounds amazing. If you don't mind me asking what are you doing for your new job?

    I'm managing the external relations of a big reproductive health charity. So advocacy, fundraising, media relations, marketing, and some special projects like setting up a health hotline. Huge and crazy for little me! Very exciting though.

    Card making would make you a fortune in Uganda! i went looking for a birthday card the other day and the best I could do was an "I miss you" card that appeared to be from 1985...
    NTBY - Isn't there someone on MG's thread who is in Kampala? Lara I think?

    Wow, I had no idea! I haven't ventured onto the MG threads, and don't know a Lara here yet so maybe haven't run into her. We could have a mini meetup! Kampala is a big city but the community of foreigners is small. Please let her know im here next time you see her on the threads :T

    So good to hear from everyone!

    Woohoo Buffy, brilliant news!

    Well, I now have my two references lined up, just need to find my A level certs and contact my old school to try and find out a way of getting proof of my English and Maths GCSE. Why they need the maths one when I've got AS maths I don't know...
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
