Welcome to Cooks' Friends

If you came here from Crosby and Susanne's travel tales - Welcome!

You have to go a little further down the page to find stories and pictures about The Trip.

It is written in four stages, and because this is a blog you will find the last one first.

Enjoy.

Moving Again

Our contracts at INTO UEA in Norwich are almost finished. Time to move on to greener pastures.

Well, no. It doesn't get any greener than this "green and pleasant land". So we are going to the desert.

We have deserts in Australia ... but not many people venture into them.

We are going to the desert in Saudi Arabia. We have jobs in Riyadh, the capital, in the middle.

The worst of the hot weather in Riyadh has passed now. We spoke to someone in Saudi today who told us cheerfully that the daytime temperatures are down to 44 degrees, and nights are about 34 degrees.

So the living must be pretty fantastic.

My new blog is called Howdi Saudi.

See you there!
