One of the classes has 20 children in it. The list on the wall which was not there when I first got there has I think 18 names in cyrillic, but it does at least mean I have some of the easier names, but fixing a name to a child needs a bit more work. So I asked for pictures with their names in English to help me learn them. Weeks ago in the end I took pictures of all of them, but as you know getting my colleague to help me print things is not that easy or getting access to the computer when there is power. I had put together a couple of pages on my computer last week, but when I emailed it to myself the format was completely messed up and useless so back to the drawing board. Yesterday I managed to transfer some of the pictures to my new USB, but it then refused to let me save more. I then went onto my computer colleagues computer and downloaded the emailed pictures I had sent myself, but trying to work out which button to push (I have never learned Control + B for example) when the instructions are all in Russian is not that easy. So onto google translate. I finally got all the pictures downloaded, saved, and then re-followed the instructions for printing, got the printer to work and Yes the ink had run out!!!!. But at least the pale blue version that emerged was just about enough for me to collar their teacher and ask her just to confirm whether I had their names correct, so no excuses, I must learn them.
