Tummy Bug Continues to Dog Trish (Thurs)

It is now well over a week since Trish went down with a nasty head cold followed by a persistent Tummy Bug.  The tummy bug continues to nag away at her.

She is able to get up and around a little but not at all comfortably.  One would have hoped that by now she would be getting on top of it.  The tennis from Paris is filling in most of her days.

My coughing and spluttering continues but a little less each day.  So far today (it is almost 10 am) I have had minimal coughing.  All is looking good for me.  We only wish Trish would improve a little more quickly.

We are due to fly to Dubai on Sunday and then to Brisbane on Wednesday.  By this time next week we should be home.

I caught the second half of the NRL State Of Origin on the laptop yesterday.  It came on soon after lunch here but not on TV.  I reviewed about 50 or Arj's Sports Channels on his TV but there wasn't any coverage.  But I eventually found a live stream on the internet.

James is celebrating his birthday tonight after school though his official birthday isn't for a a few days yet.  There is a party planned with around 20 or so of his friends turning up.

Trish and I did go out for a meal with Arj and Kate last night to the "Rec Club".  But Trish was limited to a soft drink and a plate of soup.  We have found photography at the Rec Club is not allowed so you will have to rely on the photos below.

Kate was saying the year 12 kids had a "Formal" the other night to celebrate the end of their school year and their graduation.  Because of Muslim law, dancing is prohibited, so the it was a "Formal" without any dancing!  An interesting concept!

Getting Trish home safely is now my major concern.  We still have the best part of a week until we fly out (Weds 10:30 am from Dubai, that's around 4:30pm Weds Brisbane time) so hopefully she will be feeling a little better by then.

We can just hope.
