T minus 5-days to take off

Just 5 days to go now before I board that Qatar Airways flight back to the UK and normality, after 18 months in the heat. A few of us will be leaving site for good next week, but Jill Frost (Honeywell site administration manager), pictured left, is on her way home this week to pick her daughter up in Alabama, US, followed by a few days at Disney World, Orlando, Florida. After a much welcome 3 week break, Jill will be returning for another rotation, but we will be gone, never to be seen again! So here's wishing Jill the best of luck, a great Christmas and a happy new year. Have fun at Disney World!

We would all like to have our cake and eat it. Well this week, Keith Burton made it possible, by returning from his break with a muffin large enough to feed everybody on site for a week. Ok then, a few Honeywell staff for one day! Thanks Keith, now I need another hour in the gym!

Just been to the camp medical centre for a final check up. Weight was up a bit (too many doughnuts), blood sugar was well down, but cholestrol, which has been low since I came to site, was quite high. So my challenge for the new year, having got Christmas out of the way, is to exercise some of the extra weight off and reduce my cholestrol level.

Anyway, now off to my final JK camp lunch, to put on a little more weight. So, see you soon.
