            “Greetings once again from Arua. It’s a sunny Saturday morning here, but we have been blessed with much rain recently and the grounds of Kuluva

Hospital where we live are green and alive with new growth. As we sit in our house we can hear ‘slashers’ just along the hillside, cutting down the tall grass with long

blades that are swung from side to side in what always looks like a dangerous motion that risks cutting the bare toes of the slasher. They talk and laugh together as they

work in the hot sun – the good humour of people asked to do laborious and repetitive tasks here is amazing”.
