Speaking of 11, 11 more boxes came yesterday, mostly from  George  Gaskill.  Boxes also came from  Jeff Bikle, Nolan Shaw and Mack Jordon.  Thanks a bunch guys!!!  This delivery has put us over 5000 books!!

If you have collected books for the Zulu Kids please send the  off.  Please do not collect any more books.  We have pressed the delivery system to the max.  Those great dig heavy boxes have been noticed and I have been advised to stop. So send what you have but don't collect any more

Now we have moved on, yep now we are looking for soccer balls, volley balls and cricket bats and balls.  Smaller lighter boxes you know!

Please Do Not send any more books.

At least 8 boxes have been refused delivery to me and have been returned to sender.

I am no longer allowed to recieve any more books.  Turns out it's a violation of the delivery system being used.

Sorry.

All tolled you sent over 6000 books.  Thanks to everyone who participated.  Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
