Faces of Qatar

Have just done the maths and technically I only have 17 more entries to make on the blog to meet my target of 1 entry for every day in Qatar (284). I have got a head of myself somewhere along the line as I still have 60 days still to go. The work is full on and the time really flies. The rest of the time can go really slow unless you fill it up with stuff. I think that is why people do lots of stuff here together. They do make an effort to do something. So yesterday I decided to get a ride down to City Centre to find a hoody as it was just starting to cool off in the evenings. Now Anne was driving and she mentioned that as they had nothing to do on Saturday they decided to count the number of times each of the Aussies had been mentioned in my blog (as you do on Saturday afternoon in Doha when you have nothing to do) . Now she was quite aggrieved that her name had only appeared twice and this was in her mind significantly less than that of the other Aussies. So what I thought I would do is introduce you to some of the people that I have met on this trip. So I thought I would start with Anne because Anne as I mentioned was worried about having a presence and Anne has been known to get “the rage” if Anne (there’s five extra mentions there Anne plus a picture is worth a thousand names!) is not happy with things. In her real life Anne is a psychologist and has been a teacher. In Auz Anne would be like Bernice at GSE but possibly one step up. She is involved with a behaviour initiative here working in a small team managed by young Barry (I’ll introduce him in a separate entry). I think Anne arrived about the same time I turned up for my first tour here but as can be the case, you can be working in a similar field but never meet.
