Actually, as Ethiopia works on a different calendar to us (including 13 months per year), today's date is 30th July 2006 or 2007 (not sure of the year...). Also, their clock day starts at 06.00am, so what looks like 7am to us is 1am to the Ethiopians. Added to that, Ethiopia is 2 hours ahead of GMT. This makes arranging a time to meet up, for teaching or something, a serious challenge.
Rob and I taught this morning on renal failure. I did the clinical bits and Marshall raised the academic bar by talking about the histology of glomerulonephritis. Once again, the students threw themselves into it completely and worked very hard. We could all learn a lot from their work ethic.
I've spent this pm trying to clear up the mass of emails that have just about crashed my home email account and beginning to write a report that Rob can combine with his to send to all the important bods to keep raising the profile of the link.
Hopefully, tonight will be quiet - we have had a lot of evening meetings to make the most of our time here......cos I'm whacked today!
Yours
