Zama zetu shule zikifungwa we used to devise our own games, there were no video games and VOK tv ilikua yafunguliwa 4pm on weekends and 6pm on weekdays, infact we used to hate the holidays coz it was work work and more work, time ya kucheza ilikua limited, asubuhi even before breakfast ilikua uko ndani ya napier grass ukishugulikia chakula ya ngombe and after it had been milked you had to deliver the milk to the neighbors who had made orders, then after breakfast unaingia shambani to water the vegatables and uproot the weeds, we used to long for the day schools would open tuhepe mateso as we called it.
