Temperatures rising

At last the internet is up and running at our house. We are all just dandy. The weather is getting steadily hotter and is in the early 40s most days. The boys are doing a lot of swimming, I use the airconditioned gym and Ian gets along to the squash court fairly regularly usually with work colleagues. I discovered a couple of weeks ago that most people disappear during the hottest months back home or to Europe. With the prospect of an empty compound and limited activities to choose from to keep ourselves amused for the long holidays (21 June - early September) I have booked a holiday in the UK for three weeks from mid August for Leo, Robbie and myself. We will stay with the Watts, hopefully catch up with the Murus and will go to Cornwall for a week at the end of August.

I'm meeting good people steadily. I've found a new bookclub....with what looks to be great women involved - the Duhail bookclub. The first meeting is at a cafe in the new Movenpick Hotel next Tuesday.

Photos follow - I'm sure I'll get better at this as I go along! I should be able to pop the pics in as I go along but don't quite seem to have the hang of that yet.
