When did that happen?? The year has gone so fast, I can't quite believe it! I've realised that I've been in Abu Dhabi for 20 months now. It's the time of year when it's hot, hot, hot and I'm still being crazy and doing silly things like going for a 15km cycle ride on a Friday morning at 7am....when it is 35 degrees celcius!! Had fun though!
So what have I been doing since May when I last wrote? Well, working mostly! Obviously in true Abu Dhabi style I've been to a few cheeky nights out as well, and generally just hanging out. Oh yeah, and I bought myself a beautiful new car!!! My Ford Edge is so great! I love it!!! (don't quite love the bank who in all probability couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery, but I got there in the end!).
I've done a bit of Dog sitting for friends which also involves house sitting a huge villa out in a developing residential area (which in some parts resembles a sand pit and in others, something from a strange theme park with quirky houses and villas decorated to look like castles and all sorts!).
I guess I have been working an awful lot, and haven't really been doing anything too exciting!! (Except maybe dress up as Wonder Woman...I've missed making costumes so much I hadn't quite realised!) I am looking forward very much to coming back to the UK to see family and friends. Meet new babies and women with new surnames!!
I'm also looking forward to the next 4 months!! Going to make the most of the rest of 2010, end of the decade! Then head into the unknown territory of 2011. End of 2010, I want to go back to Oman, to Muscat, drive into the desert and see some more camels! See a couple of concerts, have a great birthday and a fabulous Christmas!! Let's just wait and see what lays ahead! Photos to follow!xxx
