HELLO BOY AND GIRLS, IN A FEW MORE DAYS IT WILL BE A MONTH SINCE I ARRIVED BACK IN BLIGHTLY. CHRIST TIME FLIES. FELT WEIRD TO SEE BAHRAIN FOR THE LAST TIME. FELL IN LOVE WITH DUBAI DUTY FREE WHEN WE HAD THE STOP OVER AND I HAD TO SHOW MY LUNCH BOX UNDER THE KILT TO THE ARAB CUSTOMS THAT I WAS NOT SMUGGLING DRUGS OR NUCLEAR WAR HEADS. HE DID NOT BELIEVE THAT WE WEAR NO UNDERWEAR AND WAS THE ONLY ONE NOT LAUGHING WHEN WE LEFT THE ROOM TO SEE THE GIGGLING FACES OF THE OTHER CUSTOMS OFFICERS AND MY FOLKS. I HAVE BEEN LIVING IN A VILLAGE CALLED BUNBURY WHICH IS JUST OUTSIDE CHESTER. THE WEEKEND THAT MY FOLKS AND I WERE BACK THERE WAS A PARTY. THE HOUSE IS HUGE AND PART OF A LARGE FARM HOUSE AND ALL ITS LAND SO THERE IS BARNS AND ALL. LOADS OF FOLKS TURNED UP AND MOST OF THEM WERE MATES OF MY BRO WHO ALL LIKE TO CONSUME WINE AND BEER LIKE THEY HAVE A CONSTANT THIRST. THERE WAS A BOUNCY CASTLE JUST TO HELP SHAKE UP ALL THE BOOZE AND THAT SENT PEOPLE TO THEIR TENTS EARLY. BUT ALL IN ALL IT WAS A GOOD LAUGH AND GOOD TO SEE MY BROS MATES WHO ALL SEEMED TO HAVE MORE GREY HAIR OR LESS HAIR THAN I HAD SEEN THEM LAST, BUT I DID NOT TELL THEM THAT. MY DAD WAS TAKEN TO SEE THE LOCAL DOCTOR WHO SENT HIM TO HOSPITAL AND THEY DID A WHOLE SERIES OF TESTS TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH HIM AND IT WAS NOT UNTIL THE DAY BEFORE I WAS TO LEAVE TO GO TO EDINBURGH THAT THEY FOUND CANCER HAD GROWN IN HIS LOWER INTESTINE AND BOWELS. DEEP DOWN I THINK WE KNEW WHAT IT COULD BE BUT WERE HOPPING IT WAS NOT THAT. SO HE HAS JUST BEEN OPERATED ON TODAY TO REMOVE WHAT THEY CAN AND THEN THEY WILL HAVE TO SEE IF HE NEEDS CHEMOTHERAPY OR HAVE TO HAVE IT ALL REMOVED. BUT NOW IT IS A WAITING GAME TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. THE THREE OF US WENT IN AND HE WAS AS HIGH AS A KITE AND HAD ALL THE USUAL POST OP TUBES COMING OUT OF HIM. HE WANTED TO WRITE MESSAGES AND THOUGHT HE WAS STILL IN BAHRAIN AT ONE POINT. SO NOW THAT TIME WILL TELL I FEEL IT IS NOT TOO BAD TO GO TO EDINBURGH AND GET MYSELF SORTED. BUNBURY IS VERY NICE IF YOU ARE A FARMER OR COW BUT NOW THAT THE SUNSHINE IS GONE THERE IS NOT MUCH TO DO. IT DOES NOT REALLY FEEL LIKE I AM BACK COZ SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED AND THIS IS A NEW PLACE TO ME. THE NEAREST CIVILIZATION IS AGES AWAY SO I HAD TO REDISCOVER PLAYSTATION AND VIDEOS ALL OVER. I HAD FUN AS WELL, LOOKING FOR ALL MY STUFF. AFTER NEARLY THREE YEARS IT WAS LIKE CHRISTMAS AND AN EASTER EGG HUNT TOGETHER FINDING ALL MY KIT ALL OVER THE SHOT. PLUS I HAVE BEEN CARPET CAMPING FOR THE MONTH. CHESTER IS COOL, WE HAD A WALK AROUND THE WALLS WHICH WAS AMAZING TO SEE THAT SO MUCH OF IT IS INTACT. REMINDS ME OF NEW ZEALAND WITH OUT THE ROMAN SHIT. ALSO GOT TAKEN TO WALES TO THE SHOPS THERE. SEEMS SO SMALL COMPARED TO EVERYWHERE ELSE. HELL EDINBURGH IS ONLY 4 HOURS AWAY. WAS CHEEKY AND LOOK UP FLIGHTS THERE OTHER DAY, WOW! IT IS MAD BUT IT FEELS LIKE A DREAM THE PAST THREE YEARS OR LIKE YOU ARE AN ADDICT WHO JUST GIVEN UP. WILL BE NICE TO GET BACK WORKING SO I CAN PAY OF DEBT AND HELP OUT THE FOLKS, BEEN FEELING USELESS HERE. WAS OFFERED WORK DOING WATER TREATMENT FOR TWO SWIMMING POOLS AND THE DRINKING WATER ON THIS ISLAND WHICH IS A BRITISH ARMY BASE IN BETWEEN AFRICA AND SOUTH AMERICA. PAY IS GOOD AND TAX FREE, FREE HOUSING AND FOOD. I WOULD BE A COMMISSIONED OFFICER AND GET THREE WEEKS OFF EVER 6 MONTHS. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS TEST THE WATER AND MAKE SURE IT IS ALRIGHT TO DRINK AND SWIM. THE DOWNSIDE IS THAT THERE ARE 600 BLOKES ALL SQUADDIES AND 7 WOMEN. SO I HAVE PUT THAT ON THE BACK BURNER. I AM THINK OF DOING NVQ DIPLOMAS IN PLUMBING TO START AS A NEW TRADE. YOU CAN DO IT PART TIME AND IT SOUNDS LIKE AN OPTION TO DO WHILE WORKING. BUT AS ALWAYS I AM NOT MAKING PLANS AS I HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE HOW MY DAD WILL BE GETTING ON. BOTH MY BRO AND I FEEL IT IS TIME TO BUY A FLAT OF OUR OWN SO I WILL HAVE TO START SAVING FOR THAT. SO ONCE I AM ORGANIZED IN EDINBURGH AND RECOVERED FROM ALL THE ABUSE ANY OF YOU TRAVELING COUCH POTATOES FANCY COMING UP OR NEED A PLACE TO STAY YOU WOULD BE MOST WELCOME. SO LET US KNOW WHAT YOU ARE ALL UP TO AND I WILL KEEP YOU POSTED. IF YOU WANT TO SEE PICTURES OF THE PARTY HERE IS THE SITE WITH A FEW www.funballs.co.uk/bunbury/ . PLANNING TO SET UP A PAGE WITH MY OWN PICS ON IT ONCE I AM SETTLED. LUV TO ALL THECHUNK _________________________________________________________________ It's fast, it's easy and it's free.
