'There
and Back Again'
Reporting
from the second 2006 Waterloo expedition
In the first week of December, Fred and
Linda Nye were part of a small group of members and friends of the
Waterloo Partnership who paid a flying visit to Sierra Leone in general
and Waterloo in particular. On this page and the next, we reproduce
some of Fred's pictures and captions of what was by all accounts a
moving and memorable visit. These will be
followed soon by an account of some of the highlights of the expedition.
Our lead picture speaks for itself -
especially to those who
'sent a hen' to Sierra Leone in the highly successful Waterloo
Partnership Christmas
present scheme.... and at least some children without uniforms will now
be able to go to school.
