Have a safe night please!

Especially if you live in and around Derby (shire.)

I've landed the night shift tonight so, for everyones sake, lets hope it's a quiet one!

Hope you've all had a good day and are continuing to do so! Schloer and Turkey, what a Combo!

So in Egypt they have this terrible habit of driving at night without their lights on and then just flashing the headlights when another vehicle is approaching. Last night I saw a local guy Ahmed who has a very old BMW750 motorbike which is black and he was driving in El Gouna at night wearing a black leather jacket and no helmet. I asked him why he hadn't switched his lights on. He said its fine he doesn't need them because he can see where he is going! I told him that others can't see him because he is all black and I could hear him as I walked along but could hardly see him and someone could pull out in front of him. He said he wasn't going very far so it doesn't matter. I asked him if accidents only happen on long journeys then. Not to mention all the sand and dust on the roads and then they water them to stop the sand blowing around which makes the roads like a skating rink.

We then talked about smoking and he said it is fine his doctor told him one packet a day is OK.

Don't you just love Egypt!

Well its very quiet in Calais as the port is shut till 0500, so we are doing very little here at the moment.

I can see the carpark outside though and there are some rather sad people sleeping in their cars waiting for the gates to open

Well, I got my wish. It's been a quiet (ish) night. No one seriously ill thank goodness, back again later on for another night shift. Somehow I can't see it being quiet tonight!!!!!!


Off to bed now!

Glad to hear it was quiet mate, although I nearly had to call you out as I was hit by flatulence by while walking the Sainted Mother home

Hope it's quiet tonight

Safe diving,
Steve

P.S. I've just opened the first of the Guinness thanks mate.

You wouldn't be the first member of the club to that would you

I'm so glad you're enjoying Guinness whilst i'm sitting here at work drinking cold coffee! (it's cold because I'd just made and got called out and can't be Arsed to warm it up)

See you soon!
