We need to make a call on a possible job offer there in next 2 weeks. Any info will be very helpful.

Thanks!

Yes I am here, happy to help. It's probably best to PM me.

Also here - but TMAM has been here much longer than me and is my font of all knowledge even after 9 months in country (DS would not actually be having a birthday party this weekend if TMAM hadn't basically told me how to organise the whole thing!) But happy to help if I can. We love it here.

Shouldn't you be, you know, baking birthday cakes and stuff given that it is a public holiday and not be on MN?

We also love it here.

[BlameItOnTheBogey]

Gulp. Yes. Although party bags are now sorted thanks to your fantastic idea about books. DH called you supermum...

[Themasterandmargaritas]

Tell him I'm good on parties, hopeless on geography history maths homework.

[MurphyWasAnOptimist]

Ah, that's why our Nairobi office is shut!

Thanks - will PM you both if that's OK!

[Themasterandmargaritas]

Yes do PM us both, we can offer different perspectives.

[MurphyWasAnOptimist]

Just did :)

Thanks again. Getting an insider's perspective is so important. I'm persuaded by what I've read but dh is not convinced (fair enough - it'd be a promotion for me and he'd be giving up a lot)
