  1. Thanks! We finally get to meet your man, and the view of Great Zimbabwe is amazing! Yes… to add to the other commenter, it does look like a painting.

    1. There is nowhere quite like it, is there. And when we went there was hardly a soul about; only in the Shona village where the craft demonstrators were busy practising their trades irrespective of visitors turning up.

  2. G doesn’t look that vintage, Tish. And I hope you won’t be offended if I say that compared to his rather excellent shed, I don’t think much of his brickwork in this shot.
    Weather looks okay, though.
    😉

    1. Once been, forever missed! Thanks, Debbie. I’m trying not envy you your recent trip. Graham lived in Tanzania for 2 years doing VSO and tracking down crop pests – based in Tabora.

      1. And you’ve captured it – all too often when I come across stupendous views I fail to capture their magnificence. But you have here 🙂

      2. Thanks very much. But I think it was down to the camera. I had a little Olympus trip in those day, and when I hadn’t got it on the wrong settings, and it only had about three to choose from, it was ace on views.
