Working Bee 24 May 2008

It was our Working Bee today. We had glorious weather, clear skies, a beaut of a late Autumn day. We worked as hard as these fellows below:
There were Jamila, Hakim, Sirrallah, Maimunah, Rachman, Habibah, Rose, Radar, Alim, Aliah, Trish, Julia, Shafia, Elizabeth and Anit. It was a good time to meet and greet.
Picking up rubbish...
Cleaning the accommodation block...
Getting down and dirty
No sitting on the job...
Cleaning windows...
Walls, floors, toilets, etc.....even the bird bath
Mowing the Temple site
Like I said, not sitting on the job...
Until the place looked neat and tidy.
Everyone doing a job and knowing their place..
Well, we worked hard and had fun and satisfaction doing it. We enjoyed the camaraderie: meeting, talking, sharing meals, pruning plants, mowing grass, clearing rubbish, wiping, vacuuming, sweeping, washing, scrubbing, dancing in the evening and finishing the night by watching a video of Halima together. Many are even staying over and carrying on tomorrow.
