DOS man and I now sat at Starbucks, sipping a hot latte at Hong Kong airport waiting for our flight to Phnom Phenm, Cambodia

Finally boarded our Cathay Pacific plane to Hong Kong

Arrived early at Heathrow T3 and took advantage of our lounge card We tucked into our chosen meal and washed it down with Pimms and Lemonade (for me) and Jack Daniels and coke (for him)

We arrived back into Saudi Arabia last night after a weekend (Thursday evening to Saturday evening) trip to Manama Bahrain We stayed at the Raddison Blu Deplomat Residence & Spa Hotel The view from our ninth floor room was magnificent (especially at night, where one can see the sky's glittering reflection bouncing off the Arabian Sea) This was a well deserved weekend break for myself, husband and another couple, our friends from the compound We booked in, unpacked our weekend luggage, showered and made our way down to the hotel's restaurant for our supper, which we washed down with a bottle of white wine. We then walked over to the hotel bar and saw a Ukulele band singing on stage Friday morning, we took a taxi ride to Juffair and had breakfast at Ric's Kountry Kitchen (An American restaurant)..... Where every order was ENORMOUS! A trip to the nearby supermarket for some 'Non Muslim' delicacies before our taxi ride back to the Raddison Blu Diplomat Hotel Another shower and swimwear change and some relaxing time beside the poolside The Ukraine band from last night were nearby singing old songs that had a chorus of holidaymakers singing along, some even dancing We listened to the band, soaking in the sun and an occasional dip in the pool or sip of our alcohol beverages...... bliss! For the evening, we collectively voted to visit the cinema to watch 'Kong...... Scull Island' After another shower and changed of clothes, we ordered taxi and waited for our ride to the nearby shopping complex where the cinema was Our first stop to eat as the cinema was a late night showing We decided to eat at The Butcher's Shop and Grill A tasty combination of sea food was had by all of us (I had sea bass) Saturday morning, we too a taxi drive to a French Resturant Luilo (I believe that's the correct spelling) We made our way back and changed for a spot of spa (me) while the others relaxed at the poolside for the last time before we depart for our return to Saudi Arabia What a magnificent weekend!

I'm in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia at the moment Can't believe what I've just watched! An American series called 'Jag' (never watched before but I believe it's similar to 'NCSI, CSI et al) Sargent Joey Dutch was being sued for being AWOL and impregnating a female Ok, nothing wrong in that, I hear you say My sentiment also Until.......... Sargent Joey Dutch Is a British BULLDOG! Yes! Flabbergasted? Me too Suffice to say......... he won his case The litter he fathered have all gone to loving homes........ A fairytale ending unlike any other series of this kind LoL!

Singing with The West Cambridge (48 piece) Orchestra

I'm just getting out of bed to make brunch "What a lazy bugger, you may cry!" 1) I blame my postman's early morning delivery 2) I blame the Rock Choir DVD After thanking my postman, I hurried upstairs, two steps at a time, thinking to myself....... if the CD blew my soul, what will the DVD do? First watch Called DOS man and had a video link to watch it together........ didn't work! Why? He was talking through the rehearsal, something about the cathedral and its history, NNNOOOOO! Then the orchestra bit ( don't you just hate it when someone keeps interrupting! Kudos to him though, as I always do it to him LoL!) Second watch Aaaaah! Bliss! Watched it all through, without interruption but emotional Third watch Singing along but crying through "Something Inside So Strong Fourth watch Singing along but no tears Fifth watch Spotting familiar faces and smiling VERDICT? The DVD blew my MIND AWAY! Thank you Mike Tandy, for giving me/us the opportunity to participate in such an AWESOME DAY

Our transit plane from Detroit, Michigan couldn't take off due to snow A giant mechanical plant was used to spray de-icer all over the plane as we sat inside helplessly I'm watching 'Independence Day...... Resurgence Madam president reminded me of POTUS (he who remains nameless) Authorising an attack on a friendly alien ship, who then retaliates, causing millions of deaths God help America and its people!
