hello everyone

first of all sorry i haven't updated for a while, i have been offshore and the rig was on tow to sharjah docks for refurbishment so no Internet.
been on a rig called rowan Paris ( http://www.rigzone.com/data/rig_detail.asp?rig_id=952 )
wasn't bad but believe it or not we have had rain in the uae and the wind was a bit to strong so we had to anchor up for 3 days waiting for the wind to drop before we could get towed into the port.
was supposed to be going to Saudi on Sunday but that has now changed as i haven't had my passport back from the visa office. so that means i cant go anywhere until i get my passport back :))) though i do have my seaman's book (i can be used as a passport I'm told).
just got back and found out that ROGER WATERS is playing live here on the 25Th of Feb and guess what !! I'm in Dubai for then :)))))) (for all you people who haven't heard of him well he used to be the lead singer of pink Floyd ).
anyway the weather here is just perfect at the minute only 72 degrees today, shame i have to work. I'm going to watch fc Zurich play this weekend against the red bull salzburg in abu dhabi, got a couple of tickets for less than a fiver can you believe that (cheaper than leyton orient ) http://www.khaleejtimes.com/DisplayArticleNew.asp?xfile=data/sports/2007/January/sports_January747.xml§ion=sports&subsection=football

any way will post again in next few days
