computers and clouds

Last week the translation team attended a workshop about our translation computer programme, Paratext, in Parakou. Here you can see all the participants (except me!):

Back in the office this week, and I'm all on my own as my translators are taking their annual leave...

The translators have taken their annual leave to go and work in their fields, preparing the ground and planting. The rains have started, and so we are seeing lots of skies like these (both photos taken today):



(It's a pity about the electric wires getting in the way, especially since they do us no good at all!)
