10H Foxtrot Teams Head Off

On the morning of Friday 30th July, the three Foxtrot teams departed on their respective projects for :-

Eco-sanitation school project in Gandathur, 75 Km from Mysore;

Building toilets for a boarding school in Madapura;

A solar powered elephant proof fence in the Nilgiri Mountains in Tamil Nadu.

Sats and Tom on their PPV - Project Planning Visit for Foxtrot 3
On the departure of 10H, field base barely had 24 hours to get ready for the return of the 10E project, who have just completed their first phase. It was imperative that the 10H venturers got off as early as possible, so that we could have a short rest!
Time to board the bus everyone.


Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
                    
What is all this blooming commotion?




Hey ... there's some sheeple who have missed the bus. Baaaaa Humbug !!!
Due to the fact that Foxtrot 1, Foxtrot 2 and Foxtrot 3 have only been out very briefly on their respective ventures, there are no additional pictures available at this time. Once the loop vehicle has criss-crossed the various projects, this should be rectified with an abundant selection of kaleidoskope images of all three teams in incredible India.

Late News Bulletin ....

Sophie Blunt wishes her sister Camille, a very happy birthday !!!!!!!!
She's SEVEN today !!!

Happy Birthday from us too in Jayapura village, Mysore, India !!
