Arrived back in Qatar last Saturday evening, 22-Jan-2011. Went to the Phoenix Bar (Joe Wegener's room) for a barbeque Sunday evening, with a few other Phoenix Bar members (basically, anybody who has donated some beer). There were a few mosquito's about, and one of them got me. I went to the site medical the next day, for some cream. They sent me to the Al-Madinah medical centre near the JK camp, just in case the swelling was not an insect bite. After three visits, the swelling had gone down, and I was given the all-clear. Kept busy at work this week, with a few issues to resolve. Went to the gym this morning, for a couple of hours. Off to lunch soon, and later this afternoon, another visit to the Phoenix bar, for a barbeque and beer, with the guys. Back to work tomorrow morning. This visit to Qatar (my fifth rotation) is for seven weeks, as there was always a four day period when neither myself, or serkan was on site. Our good friend Jeff Ng left site for good this week, back to the Uk for a couple of months break, before heading back to Australia for the foreseeable future. We wish him the best of luck.

New years eve in Qatar
We spent new years eve on the JK camp, at one of bars. We had a great night, seeing the new year in. Everybody was great. Most of us have new years day off, so we have some time to recover. Back to work on Sunday and then back to the Uk on Thursday 6th January, which I am looking forward to. See you later, and a very happy new year to you all.
