A bit of good news

Good morning all. I am delighted to report that yesterday passed very quietly in our area without major incident. I have watched the news on two channels and Bahrain hardly got a mention. We heard yesterday that one person was killed in the demostrations and obviously that is one too many. Having said that there was the potential for a very dark day indeed and authorities appear to have exercised great restraint, tolerating the protests and breaking them up with minimum force rather than a gung ho approach.

Hopefully this means that life can continue with some semblance of normality here and the protests will hopefully lead to negotiation and compromise and a solution can be found. I have said it several times before but I reiterate that the trouble if far from over but I am greatly encouraged by yesterdays outcome.

We will spend today again in the villa cleaning up the sand! There was a sand storm through the night and everything is covered. We will need to do some dusting before we can relax on the roof in the sun! Shame I hear you call out.

Have a great day.
David
