I don't know what's occuring but things are happening at a lightning speed.
Was provisionally booked by Fiona for a hosting job at East Kilbride Shopping Centre in October.
Just heard back from her that they have gone for a lesser well known host.
Suits me beautifully as I have been offered a job here on that date. In fact I've been offered partnership
of a production company. Yikes!

Lynn Harris
Top gal and groovy BBC Gardener has very kindly arranged to send me some supplies here for the School. So very kind of her and every little bit helps! The other day Nino bought 5 footballs for the kids as the only thing they had for a ball was old plastic bags wrapped up in a net!?
He
He seeks beauty and joy wherever he goes.
He's sensitive, kind, exceptionally good fun and incredibly spiritual.
He has a big heart and is on a mission to do voluntary projects across 4 continents over the period of a year.
Today he was giving out wheelchairs to poor, elderly women in South Africa.
Last week he was taking spellbindingly beautiful photographs on safari and then photographing a resort in Muchamvi, Zanzibar.
I've never met someone so utterly sorted on every level. He's been to dark places and travelled a lot and I don't meant to far flung
destinations, though he has achieved that too in terms of air miles and passport stamps.
He makes me laugh and makes me cry and makes me feel very safe.
I've never met anyone like him though he is very like my gorgeous friend Susie Pearl.
He's older and wiser than me and still a big kid at heart.
He's in South Africa for 3 months and then I sincerely hope he'll come to Scotland for a period of time.
He takes stunning shots of landscapes and I'm sure he will enjoy and love all that Scotland has to offer.

Asana
Asana
Is impossibly beautiful, half Ghanian and half English, she's a lawyer here, on secondment here from London.
Her beauty captivates many admirers and she's flirtatious which makes her even more beguiling.
We try to see each other regularly for dinner and Asana has very kindly made a donation to the Kind Heart Africa School
buy investing £200 to buy materials. Buying her gifts this week.. as the school opening ceremony is now less than 10 days away.
I was supposed to be on a night out with her last night, though I couldn't go as I was so tired after a hectic week. All I was fit for was TV and sleep. It sounds like I missed a great night involving sea sickness, a frenchman, toes and a boat then a party.
Seeing her on Monday night for a Korean meal. I think we'll need an agenda for all topics to be discussed as its been a while! Even though we don't know each other very well, we share our woops and woes and I'm looking forward to catching up on all her news!

freaking out!
Visa
My visa expires on the 27th August, not long now.
I am going to try and meet with the Police Commissioner Mr Kova to see whether or not
he will be able to write me a letter to immigration to see if they will extend it til the 15 September
on the basis that I am doing voluntary work for KHA.
Afterwards I plan to come back and work my socks off ( flip flops actually as I no longer wear socks )
on projects with Sarah Scott.
I am set to be working with her, the two of us, on our clients Vodacom and NBC Bank. I don't have a business visa
so technically can't earn any money. Working out a package now with Sarah. Fingers crossed I will be able to
come back and work as I really do love it here and there are massive opportunities to create exceptional events
and the work is fun. Already have come up with some straplines for our business cards..
" We do suits, swimsuits"
And it means I can continue to do even more work with Kind Heart Africa...

Stories
Mrs Noel G aka Sara McDonald, Jack McConnell, Stuart Cosgrove and Josie D'Arby are just some of the famous names that have agreed to donate a story for the KInd Heart Africa project.
My ain is to collect 365 and have them published as a children's book. Published and sold in the UK with all proceeds going to the Kind Heart Africa School.
Haven't a scooby abut publishing or where to start.. can't be that difficult!
A children's bedtime story book, filled with lovely stories created by Scottish children, friends and a few famous peeps. I'm sure it would sell well in the UK, especially with the charity angle and perhaps
if I can get more famous names onboard.
I have 40 today - 21/08/11
If you're reading this and would like to contribute, please email yours to hsuttie@mac.com
They can be any length, as long as its original.
Thinking about trying to set up a competition with Schools. Have asked the lovely James from Material what he thinks...
Ideally, it would be great to do it with the support of a newspaper.. if we did a competition it would be a good way to stimulate Scottish kids to get creative
and help their African dadas and kakas ( sisters & brothers ) who are a lot less fortunate than they are.
