Back at Nimr

Well I am back here at work, bit behind but catching up fast. As soon as I arrived there has been an incident truck driving into the back of another luckily the driver only got broken arm and leg. The cab of the truck was completely ripped of the vehicle and the steering wheel was embedded in the back of the cab. One lucky man.

Weather is nice, about 31 degrees a bit foggy in the morning but that's nice. Just looking forward to Friday, 100 off on the plane home for another week of, as long as the rain stays away !!!

Still on Days Off !!



Well I am still in Muscat after my week off, there has been a cyclone warning for the south of Oman and the airfields have been flooded and closed down. I am really sad having to spend more time with the family, more time on the beach and less meals eaten down in Nimr which means less indigestion. I am just waiting for the flights to return to normal now and get the call to the airport, they are busy regrading the runway as landing on it normally is not a great experience, with all the bumps left from the rain could be frightening. Spending nearly every afternoon on the beach with Jess, building sandcastles, spotting fish, crabs, birds and whatever comes along. I know it will all come to an end very soon !! so I will make the most of it.
