Thoughts on Oman: Democracy in Oman?
http://thoughtsonoman.blogspot.com/2012/08/democracy-in-oman.html
Don't be fooled by the title - I think about and comment on anything! Friday, August 17, 2012. The door or dictatorship in Oman was cracked open and democracy was allowed to briefly raise its head in the form of protest and free speech. The ability to criticise anyone within the bounds of slander or libel is a fundamental right of democracy. Alas, the door has been firmly shut again .

"The UK has only 8 public holidays a year and most of those are around Chrstmas and the New Year! I hear you exclaim. You couldn't write this stuff! I feel like I'm back in Oman!

Don't be fooled by the title - I think about and comment on anything! Tuesday, August 30, 2011. I've just noticed that the lastest country on the list of my "hits" is Lybia! Nice to see you following me. Watch out for that rocket propelled grenade now, won't you! Football.well, it's just, well. Now what got me was just how inaccurate the game is. They put some statistics up on the screen which showed that only 30% of passes were successful. Good grief! Tuesday, August 9, 2011. There are many theories tha...

Thoughts on Oman: June 2011
http://thoughtsonoman.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Don't be fooled by the title - I think about and comment on anything! Tuesday, June 14, 2011. Just booked up some flights for me and my other half to visit Oman on holiday in early 2012. It'll be four long years since I was there. We'll be staying with old friends (OK, friends - they're not too old). I used up some precious air miles for the flights, so all in all it'll be a nice (and cheap) winter break full of relaxation, socialising and reminiscing! No Hyatt Hotel, no road along the beach at Qurm, no ...

http://thoughtsonoman.blogspot.com/2012/07/view-outside-my-widnow-on-lovely.html
Don't be fooled by the title - I think about and comment on anything! Tuesday, July 3, 2012. The view outside my widnow on a lovely summer's day in the UK. Since the first week in April (yes . April) it has been raining virtually every day, except for a brief respite in late May of about a week. Yesterday, and we're talking July here, the mercury reached the dizzy heights of 14 degC. midsummer and it is colder than an average november day in London! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Don't be fooled by the title - I think about and comment on anything! Wednesday, July 27, 2011. A Feline Love Story . I'm normally not one to get all teary eyed when hearing about "long lost lovers" reunited, but when it involves two city gents and a lion called Christian I have to admit I found it hard not to be moved. Check out the following link (especially the video):. Http:/ www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14284320. Anyway, I digress. The story is heartwarming and wonderfully uplifting. Sunday, July 24, 2011.
