Hi y'all, its been some time since I posted to the blog so I thought I would give you an update. There hasnt been much to say and I dont really want to tell you what we bought at the local supermarket! The weather has warmed up a little but the last few days has been a Shamal which is a wind that brings us terrible sand storms. It has been the worst since we arrived here. It appears to have blown out now. It has taken its toll on roadside signs and more importantly it has blown away the oiled sand from the greens at the golf course resulting in the cancellation of todays competition. We still await news about our games tomorrow and Sunday. Sunday is the prophet's brithday so we are on holiday. Its the Ladies Excuse Me at the golf club where lady members invite three men to be their partners. Luckily Sheila asked me to be one of her partners. We also have Gerry McDermott, an Irishman and Clive Bailey from South Africa. It should be fun.
It's about a year since the unrest started and there is significant rumour about an upsurge in the unrest again around the 14th February, the anniversary of one of the important days in the commotion the last time. Lets hope for the sake of everyone that it passes of quietly. We never hear a thing where we live now although there are still incidents every night in the villages.
It wont be long until our half term holiday but Sheila will be working to allow us maximum holiday time in the summer. We should be home for about 5 weeks approx 13 July to 17 Aug.
Getting ready for Sheila's golf lesson today. Although the course is closed the driving range will be open so I'll probably bash a few balls too.
Have a great weekend when it comes for you.
