Where's the potatoes?

So its been a pretty interesting few weeks of not much. I've just come off of a 7 day Neuro-linguistic Training programming course which is essentially a problem solving method that is very congruent with the hypnotherapy/psychotherapy I've been practicing. It was a hell of a lot of fun and it was fascinating to see who turned up. There was a Brigadeer General from the Bahraini military, Medical People, A Kickboxing Instructor and Entrepreneur and a bunch of therapists all running around like headless chooks. I wish I'd taken some photos...but if you go to the instructor Phillip's website

www.NLPNOW.com

you might see something in the near future.

There was a horrific thunder and rain storm that came in from inland Saudi Arabia about two nights ago that saw the whole of the Abqaiq Camp (about four hours from RT) flattened. We just got all the rain which dumped all the dust out of the air onto my windows so that I can hardly see out at the moment. Hopefully the guys at building maintenance will do a window wash soon but I'm not holding out any hopes because there's more Shamal due in later this month.

Its going to be a pretty full on weekend this weekend as we've got friends Reina and Eric coming over the causeway to catch up for a few hours before their flight to Istanbul and then we're headed off to dinner over the other side of Bahrain at another friends house. She lives near a pretty surly Shea are so hopefully we don't see too many burning tyres and protests.

Oh! I ask you, how do they get all the bloody tyres? Do mum and dad take the kids out on an outing replete with full packed picnic and thermos of tea down to the south to pick them up? One really has to wonder...

Come Friday afternoon dad declares that he's taking the kids out to make a bonfire... in the middle of the road... and while he's at it is it ok if mum sews up an effigy because it'd look bad for the kids at school if they didn't have one... GAH the logic to these things!

For all the look of the thing, I've not heard of much more happening than a bunch of people standing embarrassed around a black smoking mass wondering who bought the potatoes in aluminium foil for roasting.

Anyways I've got some work to do reformatting someone's website so off to work for me.
