When I first arrived, I saw a new 3-storey

building in its finishing stage. Little did I know that it was to be our new office.
Right across is a branch of the Bank of Uganda (the central bank). Hmm, sometimes I imagine seeing my former colleagues going to work in that tightly guarded fortress.

In a place where almost nothing starts on time, this will perhaps mark the dawning of a new day in Gulu.
