Beds beds beds
Where are we going to get 75 beds in two days?
Who has a lot of people moving about and wanting to get some kip when the stars come out?
An army.
Where’s the nearest army?
Across the road – a Kosovo Army barracks.
Have they got 75 beds they’re not using?
Yes… blimey that was easy.
So the Kosovo Army tip up and the classrooms are filled with beds. Whoopee do!
I should perhaps point out that this isn't the entire Kosovo Army
But the mattresses leave something to be desired so Jane nips out to the market and buys umpty-metres of white cotton to make up some sheets.
Arbenesha, Abulena and Leonita fitting the new sheets
Sheets! The 30 students coming out from the UK are not bringing out any bedding. We need a cunning plan.
Each Gjakova student, and there are 30 of them as luck would have it, will bring bedding for themselves and for an English Bedding Buddy. Job’s a good ‘un.
