were you a snitch?

Is jilib in somalia?

Are those people poor? Is that why they live like that?

Grant! Grant!

How come the young girl looks like you? I can see some resemblance there!

These are from slides from film I sent my parents. I just found them and had them printed, so this is really the first I have seen them. They have been going up so slowly because I have had to scan, etc.

Yes, Isse Westlake, that white dude was me when I had hair.

My mom was born there in 1960 or '62.

Her dad was stationed there as a policeman throughout the 1960s. You might know him, Grant, he was a high-ranking officer.

PCV. I taught English at the government school.

Kambuli,

I don't know the full story on the girl. She is half Italian and the wife of the older boy in the
picture.

To whom it may concern: Those are photos of the household of the Mayor of Jilib. By comparison, they were quite well off.

Grant,

See I was close One look was enough..to notice that she is half white..

Grant those are the Gosha people right?
Anyway apart from the English lesson are you sure you were not a juniour member of the CIA?

Paidmonk,

You can just make out the police station at the far left in the photo of the school. The two round-style huts were police housing during the Italian period but were vacant when that picture was shot.
