No update

The plumbing and gas works are being put in at the house so no pics this week for changes. I am hoping that we will have some brickwork to show by the end of the week.

Unrelated this prayer was found in Auschwitz concentration camp. (Almost 2 years ago I visited Dachau - see: http://fromthetipofafrica.blogspot.com/2009/05/day-11.html) so it really struck me. It is unclear if it was written by a Jewish person or a Christian:

Lord, remember not only people of good will
but also people of ill will.
Do not remember only the sufferings
that have been inflicted on us,
but remember too the fruit we have bought
as a result of this suffering:
the comradeship and loyalty,
the humility and courage,
the generosity and greatness of heart
that has grown out of it
And when they come to judgement,
let all the fruits that we have borne be their forgiveness.
