OK so this is a very quick interim type post to say that I’ve been away for a few days up north to Dutse in Jigawa state for the Sallah celebrations and that I’m going to write a proper post about that very soon but it will take me a while because so much happened. I just wanted to say that I had an amazing time, experienced many new things and can’t wait to go back.
Also before I left last week I went back out on the road to Gasaki and Cheta and took some photos of the things I mentioned in a previous post of the people on bikes and the like which you will find below, alas my efforts to capture the glory of the children’s plaything layby were a bit ropey at high speed…

| Ocadas carry people and goods |
 |
| A rare sight to see a helmet! |
 |
| The smiles disappear when the camera comes out but they are always so keen to be snapped |
 |
| Work in progress at the school to rebuild the classrooms |
 |
| The headmaster's office |
 |
| A very blurry section of plaything layby |
 |
| The swingset section not very popular today |
 |
| A special market for the Sallah |
