They (the Malawians) kept tying slip knots that was, well, look! I wish Ryan were here to show them a proper knot!


after an unsuccesfull try they sent someone in to bang back out the round tank into its round form.


Last week we outplanted a whole planter into its own guild. Bryan and I designed it as a tea garden/guild... the permaculter class helped (as well as many other) to plant the garden.


Often Matt and David give tours around the school to visiting tourists staying at the local lodges, this group Matt asked Bryan to do alot of the explaining for the garden... now he helps in most of the tours talking about permaculture.



Across the river where our HELP Malawi friends live we found a black mamba. It was in one of the offices and had already been killed, so Bryan decided to make use of it, we had to choose between eating and art (neclaces, bracelets). And so we decided on not eating this one. Look at the length! Bryan is even standing on a crate!

So Matt helped Bryan skin it and well here they are holding the two parts...

They pinned the skin to a board to dry...

and burried the body so that nature can do its thing to clean the bones. We will then dig it up in a few months and use the vertebrae for making jewlry, isn't that what you want to wear? Mamba?!
