Well, it's time to leave AA. I'm off on Sat morn to watch the Dubai WTA (tennis). Al Ain has been home for the last 5.5 years. And I'll be sad to go, but all good things.....
It's strange to see your life packed away and compartmentalized into boxes, but they can't box up the memories; wadirunning, Dubai & ADhabi 10ks, squash, bdon tourneys, soccer tourneys, good colleagues, good friends.
But no one can stay here for ever, so it's off on the yellow brick pipeline road for me......
Good luck to you now.
Wadirunner.
PS, To The "Poolies"; I'll prove you wrong and get all the way home in TIPO.

Yo Ya Foxy-Headed Dublin Jackeen,

If you get all the way home in that wreck I'll let you beat me in tennis! Have to say that it did manage to get me home on my last night out in Al Ain....even if I would have been quicker walking!

Jinkless.

Best of Luck
Baggio,

Best of luck on your trip. No Major news here in Ireland. Just back from a trip to monaghan. Just Jen and I and an outdoor outtub.
Keep yourself safe,
Tony

Best Of Luck!
What more can I say? Never having driven a Fiat across the desert, I can offer no advice. Post some pics of the car, BTW: It'll be interesting to compare with what arrives in Dublin.

A Blessing
May the shamal always be at your back,
May the sun always be overhead,
May the pipeline road stretch far ahead to greet you and may you meet many good natured Pakistani mechanics along the way...
Oh, and, good luck to you now, you ginger haired tosser!
