Back from the Uk !!

Well, that’s me back from the UK, and MAN !! Being home sure is great. Didn’t post for the past few days because of me being jet legged and today I finally managed to go to work. What annoys me is that I’ve got lots of reports to submit and I’ve even lost count of the people who I’ve got to submit them to !! Before I finish up this short post I would like to show my gratitude to the Dudley College guys, To Vic thanks for all the help, to George thanks man for the fun night outs, to Simon thanks for the gags and catch phrases, to Graham thanks for the nickname, to Clive thanks for the funny information, to Gullian thanks for the lunch breaks, to John thanks for the help with the H&S materials and finally to my mentor Keith I can’t express my sincere gratitude for all what you’ve taught me.

Anyway now with this post outta the way, it’s time for me to checkout.

The Mighty Reds !!

That's me back from Liverpool, been at a Pub called the "Walk about" where I have watched the reds win the FA cup Final !! Well done lads on winning the cup but what a rollercoaster !! This final is dubbed as the best final ever since the 50s by the BBC comintators. Liverpool proved to be (yet again) the kings of combacks, I mean I was in tears when Stevie G scored the 3rd goal and my friend Safaa from Iraq (Man utd Supporter) was as extatic as I was !! the place was in shambles !! Everybody knew that that was it !! even if it got to the shootouts !! The mighty reds showed character by playing with all the cramps and injuries !! Pepe redeemed himself as a hero in the shootouts I just lost it !! It was The Champions League Final in Maggie's Cafe all over again but even better because of me being in Liverpool City Centre !! Anyway enjoy the pics !!

8 more days !!

8 more days and I am outta here!! I am currently doing a short (LONG) course in employees assessing (NVQ Assessors award) in the UK and within 8 days this will come to closure. Being a UK graduate, I've always had an urge to return to the UK. But after those 2 months I came to discover that this was just because I remembered my student years here while having my pink tented glasses on. Nothing changed here infact it got worst!! The weather is as dull as it used to be and places shut at the same dreaded hours (4pm), and being in a sad place in the west midlands called Telford didn't help much!! I mean the boredom is just unbearable!! I feel like political prisoner in the isle of Saint Helena during the British occupation!! But still it would be harsh just to mention the bad stuff about my 2nd coming here, I have made new friends and met with old ones plus the odd couple of sunny days!! So for those who keeps moaning about Bahrain being BORING (and you know WHO you ARE :) ) trust me the UK isn't exactly Disney land. Ok this runt needs to be ended now so fingers crossed and hope that 2 days in London rectifies my new dark idea about the UK.


Boycott Batelco

This is ridiculous!! I am totally gob smacked!! why oh why do batelco keep coming up with those harsh and un fair schemes !! The prising is already too high in comparison with other countries in the gulf and putting a tab just makes things worst. I for one depend a lot on the internet, doing this might not affect me as bad as others but this pushes the internet (which is a right to everyone) out of the reach of people with low incomes.


I wish we have an alternative because I would never hesitate to abandon this monopoly !! This greedy company makes profits in huge sums as it is !!
