Prishtine morning kids

This is one of Suzi's, from our July/August 1999 trip to Kosova. I don't like to upload photos that aren't by me, but I've wanted to refer to this one a couple of times, and it just makes life so much easier to have it here! :) The kids in the photo lived around the house of Valon, our friend who looked after the whole bunch of we convoyers. Every morning they'd be first up, and waiting to pounce when we emerged, and we'd sit for a while drawing pictures, swapping language, and eventually these were the kids who I asked to paint their messages over the side of Truck, in reply to the messages painted on the other side by kids from Aberdeenshire.

Just a K750i cameraphone shot, but I like the monochrome feel. Mhairi will probably hate this, but I actually think she looks rather sophisticated ;)

Suzi & Jim

Jim Browning is an "adventurer", and a bit of a hero. Seen here with Suzi in Prishtinë, Kosova, in the midst of an unlikely and unplanned expedition to rescue truck from Albania. Jim hadn't been to Albania before, but nevertheless after we'd finished the aid delivery we were doing in Kosova, he agreed to take me across the mountains. My truck had been languishing there since dropping his propshaft just ouside Rubik. Six months on, and apart from the rats' nest in the heater he was basically okay. Made it as far as Bari in Italy before the improperly repaired prop fell off again, but we got him home and he did four convoys to Chernobyl after that :) Tales on www.aidconvoy.net Not sure which camera produced this, either the Pentax ME-Super or an ancient Nikon. Either would have had a 50mm lens and Kodak Tri-X or Plus-X.
