Did you know you can buy some goats for the poor villagers? well I can confirm that they do exist. Only about $40 - $50 per goat (depending on the goat) and they do the world of good. We can even get a picture of you goat being delivered and a hand written letter of thanks (probably an illiterate scribble to be honest, but its still nice) you can frame it and put it on you're wall... com'on

Or you can buy a Muscouvy duck (more correctly known as a Mcscoffer) Life can't be too bad as long as you have a Mcscoffer

(sorry inside joke there)

But you can buy a duck for $20 for a poor family like Sankers, so they can breed and sell more ducks. Not just for dinner.

  4. The Big Baboon is found upon
    The plains of Cariboo:
    He goes about with nothing on
    (A shocking thing to do).
    But if he dressed up respectably
    And let his whiskers grow,
    How like this Big Baboon would be
    the people that you know?

  5. delighted to read of your adventures. I've enjoyed your pictures, poignant stories and being introduced to the world of blogs. Just last week I was introduced to the Grameen bank system and micro financing concepts of Mohammed Yunus. Such a powerful concept and here you are showing it in action.Email me details of your bank to follow up.
