Bob, Victork and all who helped out- thankyou.  A couple of things there could well find their way on to the programme, not least the cannabis story….

On air: Is being HIV positive a stigma in your country?

Ask anyone here in Mwanza and they’ll tell you that HIV AIDS has changed their city. Judith is a single woman has two children (15 and 21) and she is HIV+, and today we’ll be in her backyard from where she’d like to talk to you about attitudes towards people with the virus in your country.

Photo opportunity

I’ve just been busy adding a load of photos to Flickr while the connection here in Mwanza allows me. There’s shots of today’s venue (we’re in a backyard next to a duck run), our show on Monday from a damaged house in Kibera, and this one of where I’m writing to you from.
