Re: It’s so hot.
It rained most of the day yesterday. We had planned to find a pool to sit by. We went bowling and to the movies instead. I woke up shivering cold in the middle of the night.
Re: Eviction notice.
Prashandan, the Indian Cardiac Anesthetist, had been housed in Sally’s spare bedroom pending our eviction. Prashandan’s wife got wind of the arrangement and raised a little hell. Prashandan is now living in one of Ian’s guest houses up on the hill. I let Dorothy in HR that I was expecting the same level of comfort in my new housing as I had in my old. This led to a flurry of emails between IHK and VSO. It now looks like they may rent a house for Richard and Pat (Richard’s a doctor from the UK who was working here, but went home in September, but are coming back for a short project) and give me a room in it.
Re: Another weekend in Wakiso
Bebe Cool was shot in the legs in a gun battle between the Special Police Constabulary Unit and his body guards that happened either at Centenary Park, the Nakumatt parking lot or the Lugogo Mall (depending on which paper you picked up the day after the much awaited but generally dissed R. Kelly concert in which Bebe was an opening act). Details of the shooting are blurry as well, but seem to hinge on a police unit interrupting a couple having sex in a parked car. Bebe was initially reported in ‘critical condition’ with ‘both of his legs shattered,’ but, after a visit from President Museveni, he was able to walk out of the hospital a few days later.
