An incredibly rich experience

Well, here I am only five days in to my Indian adventure and I've already missed two days of posting!

I will claim that every day is such a rich experience that I don't have time or space to write it all down (and there is certainly some truth to that) but it doesn't do much good for the commitment I made if I don't include at least something each day (back to the discipline question I guess).

Anyway, after two nights of sleeping without the lock on the front door (although it is bolted x2 on the inside), the carpenter came yesterday to replace the lock and I'm now securely ensconced once more. Monday and Tuesday in the office were mostly focussed on getting the School prospectus in shape for printing and loading on to the website, so it is not a very exciting part of the picture. A lot of activity going on around us because the School is also a major construction zone at the moment and I get a good view out of my office window at the work being undertaken. It is exciting to see the daily progress being made and to know that before too long we'll be watching the installation of classroom seating, the library facilities and so on. I have joked with people that I am called Foundation Dean because I've got my spade in the knapsack ready to dig, but fortunately I haven't been called on yet.

I will write more this evening when I return, but I wanted to get at least something down for the last couple of days before I lose track altogether.
