Stop Press!!!

The world's tallest flagpole (or maybe it's the world's biggest flag....) is erected at the end of the road from my work. Yawn....

Pool time

Life is an endless summer.....

National day

 Feverish excitement as Saudi national day approaches
 The crowds gather at HyperPanda. 
 Rawdah Road is packed with National day traffic.
 Someone is ready anyway.
Saudi fashion to celebrate the event in style. Wake me when it's over.

Back to school

Packed and ready to go.
 The hols are over. 7am Sunday morning. School bus blues.

Daddy gets his MA

 Finally it's over.The study, the worry, the lack of qualification. MA TESOL with distinction. A happy day in Nottingham. Graduation!

 Crossing the stage, certificate in hand.
 Rosie, looking beautiful and celebrating with a muffin.
If the cap fits.....

Lounging around






Spain!

Two glorious weeks in Spain ahead !!!

The end to a perfect summer in Germany

 Another relaxing day, filled with sunshine,
 beer and sausages, 
 lovely rivers...
 and ice cream!!!
I love Germany!

A lovely afternoon in Pankow's Buerger Park

 Daddy looking uncharacteristically cool...
 Less cool as Rosie leaves me standing...
 First to the finish line...as usual
 This is more like it!
 Relaxing in the park. We love summer.
 Even when everything is perfect, I can still pull a face like this.
All is ok again. Uncle Lars makes everything ok.
