Nigel flew off to Ecuador yesterday with Phil Kelly and 40 dentists and students from Charleston dental school. They have gone armed with tons of equipment and will be setting up a city clinic this week, and one in the jungle next week, and offering free dental care to the locals. Nigel has had some amazing conversations with Bill (who is organising the whole expedition) and is hoping that the relationship will lead to joint ventures in the future- Nigel taking students from Sheffield and meeting up with the annual trip from the USA. He would really value prayer from any of you who feel able, and I can feel an alliteration coming as I write!!
Family- we have all been taking turns to be ill for the last 4 weeks, and it is beginning to drag. As we were getting ready to drive to the airport, Emily promptly vomited all over the carpet and is now running a fever.........urrgh ! (we are looking forward to some resident doctors arriving to care for us soon!!)
Fitness- Nigel has had a bad back for the last week, and although better as he left, he is concerned about the long flights and dubious accommodation.
Fuller-whilst his term at college is over for 2 weeks, he still has a 3 hour exam to take 'online' before friday. They would not release the paper before he left, so he has to find an internet cafe in the next 5 days, in order to qualify for 20% of his course.

I am sure he would also apreciate some fun, and good food, and feel free to add your own.....
