Why Peter is called 'The Brains'

During tonight’s meeting Peter ‘The Brains’ Jackson had a fantastic idea regarding the equipment / clothing that we are taking out to Burundi with us. He suggested that we each weigh the equipment that we have been given / have collected to take out there (e.g. baby-grows, art equipment, bats and balls, musical equipment, sports equipment) and let him (Peter) know what everything weighs. This way we can work out what we need to distribute around the team. For example, I think between Annette and I we have about 1000 baby-grows (this might be an exaggeration). 

As you can tell from the brief list above in parentheses, the team have done really well with getting hold of resources that could even include electric observation beds (I am right in this description, Helen?). We just need to make sure that we can take as much as possible - we have an allocation of 2 x 23 kg per person. We will have one bag/rucksack for personal ‘stuff’ and one bag for ‘the team’. Or if we need to take more kit out, 1 toothbrush, a few pairs of undies and 2 bags stuffed full of equipment!
