Greetings from Kuwait

[MartinSullivan]

Well thats me been in Kuwait for nearly 24 hours - not seen any MINIS yet - seen a couple of beetles though.


Managed to get laptop online in hotel so I can see what is going on on here ;)


See ya all soon

[Scottie]

Kuwait.

What do you think.

Allan was in the gulf but that was first time round.

[Wul]

Koo-eee in Kuwait Mart!:p

You're just showing off now!:cool:

[sleepyrascal]

Bring me back a giraffe!!

[Julz]

I thought you said you weren't gonna have to go!! Now mind and wear a hat, you don't want to burn your heid!!;):D

Martin,

I've just bought a set of alloy wheels from some block in Aberdeen who said he was cleaning them for a guy in Kuwait - is that you ? I though £50 quid was a lot, but he managed to squeeze another tenner out of me.

;)

I've just got a set of four spots and a couple of union jack mirror covers, bargain only £40 :p

Are you not getting mixed up with camels? :clown:

How long have you to be there for Martin? All that hotness :p when we have too much coldness :disapprove: and all that muck on the roads - poor Eck just needs to peek out the driveway and he gets his wee nose dirty though I dont suppose it's any worse than getting it all dusty.
Does this mean you'll miss the party at yoor hoos on Friday?
I think allowing your car to be stripped down with all proceedings going to Julz' charity is a magnificent gesture. You're a star!
:approve::approve::D:D:D:D

[sleepyrascal]

[Mini Me]

Hey Martin!

Looks like you just missed Ramadan - shame 4 u, would have been a cruisy working month.

I could only last 1 week due to the prohabition on alchole - mmmm....just going to crack open another coldie!! ;)

I can recommend the Ritz Beiteddin for top Arabic cuisine - or at leat it was back in '98.

Be careful and stay safe! :)Tell Cazza she should still join us on 16th for Aberdeen nigh out :)

Cheers
Nenah

[Big Gordy]

Better watch sleepy or you might end up with Big Col as he's a bit of a giraffe;) Nothing to do with his height though. No its because he splays his legs when he's drinking :p:D:approve:

[Big Col]

Yeah but only 'cos the chicks dig it. ;)

Yeah Ramadan is just finished - wouldnt have made much difference to me, as there are very few Kuwaitis on site.

I can get alcohol here if I want it - there is a "bar" on site, selling local "home brew" - two yanks have been off for 5 days so far after drinking it , think I will give it a miss :D

I will ask my indian driver about the Ritz Beiteddin - see if it is still any good. I'll bring you something nice back :D

[X30YES]

Please bring me back the lowest note you can get Martin (I collect foreign notes...sad I know but still !!)

Never got sleepy a giraffe - sorry mate.

On the last day had to fill up my thirsty 4x4 with twin 50 litre tanks, I put almost a full 100 litres in it and guess how much it cost????







£14 - couldnt believe it!

[The Dogfather]

Feck! That's cheap. Bloody UK government!
