Well, one of my classes was nice enough to hold a little farewell thing for me and two of my colleagues who will be posting out really soon. I'll be hanging around for two more weeks though. Anyway, many thanks to them; it was a really touching gesture and I am grateful.

Photos, which I promised to put up, to follow.




That's one of the largest cakes I've ever seen, and two slices were more than enough to postpone my lunch for 3 hours.




My two colleagues and I.




Facing the camera.




From another angle.




Strawberries!




My colleague and I again.




Students in imitation of the trademark way I usually stand in the classroom.




Happy group photo with the guys.




Happy group photo with the girls, who are (less successfully) trying like their male counterparts to mimicthe way I like to stand.




Happy group photo with just about everyone not ready for it.




Now, isn't that better.




Me, declining to be intimate with a large strawberry.




Me, continuing to decline to be intimate with a large strawberry.




Ok, ok, whatever, seriously.




Just what is it with strawberries.




"Oh, I can finally eat this damn thing in peac... ack."


Well, it was a good end to a peaceful week.
