A wedding ceremony had been going through the night a little distance away, but we still managed to get a pretty good night's sleep and had another early rise.

We had to be on the road early because we had another drive ahead of us before needing to get the last eight houses completed for a 1pm handover to the home owners.

But first things first, some of the kids at the orphanage had been keen on a game of volleyball so straight after breakfast we started one up.

We were pretty confident going in because we had a few big blokes in our team and the kids were out-sized. But we got the same lesson as the 2010 team, unfortunately.

We made a pretty good start before dropping the first set and then led 14-8 in the second set before absolutely choking. Eventually, the kids beat us 19-17, so we will have to hope the next batch of players who come here in a couple of years' time can get the job done.

Staying at the orphanage was another great experience and, while those kids have been through some pretty tough times, you wouldn't think so judging by the smiles on their faces. They are bubbly, bright and just amazing.

After another trip by mini van, we arrived back at the site for the house build and were again greeted by happy, smiling faces. These people have none of life's luxuries, but every day is another new day for them and they make the most of it.

We were organised in different teams today, but having had the experience of yesterday made life a bit easier for us. And the Cambodians all wanted to get involved and help out which was great. They made sure the corrugated sheets were straight and enjoyed being involved.

We did the last eight houses pretty quickly and made the 1pm deadline before handing over the properties to their owners, which was a great feeling.

Corinne Gurry, who is linked to the Tabitha Foundation, made the official presentation, handing over a blanket to the first of the 20 families who will make these houses their homes. I was then asked to respond on behalf of the club and, in a great little ceremony, all of us then handed over a blanket to another family.

To see the faces on the people as we were moving towards them to give them the blanket, it was quite amazing.

After our farewells, we packed up said goodbye and started the long drive back to Phnom Penh. It was a good feeling to think of the looks on the faces of the locals as we drove away. It was a great experience and really satisfying to be able to make a difference.
