On Monday we were introduced by John to Awo and her 11 month old daughter she is one of the maids used by the volunteers to wash their clothes and tidy around their houses and comes much recommended. After a week of trying to wash the clothes and not managing to get the stains out especially white t shirts we have decided a maid would be a good idea. We managed to come to an arrangement of every Wednesday for 700 dalasi per month plus 50 dalasi for travelling, about £20 per month, which is not a bad wage in Gambian terms.
