Bread and Milk deliveries

[Yolanda du Plessis]

Reading about the trampoline that Kim them had.  We lived next to them for a few years.  I remember we used small planks to make steps on the fence to be able to climb over easier to go and play there.  Had this huge tree by the fence.  Sometimes her father would come and jump with us and then he would let you go so high it sometimes was scary.

The bread mentiones was specially made for the hostels, and used to be Lunch for the Ovambos working the bedrock. The bread had rasins and peanut butter in, now you know why it was so tasty. The brown bread that was delivered to the rest of us as not the same.

Those breads were slightly smaller than the regular breads as well. Very tasty breads.  I remember going to the hostel with my Dad quite often, he was very involved with the hostels, and there were quite a few hostel dwellers who always spoiled me with a piece, or a hand full of peanuts.
There was a trampoline as well, I think at North Hostel, and there one of the guys taught me how to do proper salto's and other tumbles and somersaults on it.  Always great fun...
