Happy Friday, a flying first for me today, flying with my 3 year old nephew for the first time today. Have earplugs and noise cancelling headphones ready. You may be able to hear him at the DO, sorry everyone.
Now just have to teach him to stop 'where's my upgrade, don't you know who my uncle is!'

Happy Friday everyone. Hope all that are going to the 'do' have fun.
I had my masters viva today and it could have gone a lot better than it did. However I'm looking forward to a nice weekend off

Just finished work and not back there until midday Sunday. Tomorrow will involve going to Walkabout to watch the big game tomorrow whilst drinking my beloved Bundaberg rum and hoping that the odds are wrong for the final 
I hope everyone going to the Do has a good time! One day I'll make it to a Do

My Friday story comes a day late; Thursday is Friday here with the weekend being Friday and Saturday.
It featured the military of several countries, the secret police, a monumental rain storm and associated flooding, mansaf, and gouging a chuck out my leg and a tetanus booster.
Now I'm back in Amman and craving a nice cold beer. But the only booze shop open is much too far away...
I spent my 'Friday' in the West Bank assisting with a research project from an NGO and someone writing their Ph.D.

I made a report on the first installment of this trip in the report section on my journey to Amman and time in Jordan.
I may well fill in this evening on the trip to the Valley and so on with some pictures in case anyone is interested.

It is Friday, 2 days before my Tier Points reset. So I am trying to prepare myself for the shock of them being removed. Also have the fun of getting to work for 4+ hours starting Sunday at 17:00 and then fly at 06:00 for my first 360 tier points Monday morning.
No, I am not looking forward to this weekend.

No more BA flying for me for until the new year at least.
