Real old fashioned seaside! Sadly my husband only gets 20 days a yr so he can only join us for 1-2 wks. My children are so use dto it they don't talk about 'daddy' much at all in the summer. it' s just part of their summer now. <br /><br />Just to join in the genrealfray I have no idea what Coll or PTV i s but I worked in South Africa- pietermaritzburg in 1988. which I suppose just goes to show we are all about the same age! A boyfriend (in SA) & I used to play the game of 'what was the nearest geographical location we got to each other before we met!'Paradise Lost In Translationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08507703496080523959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3519883976018465014.post-56199374094965763702009-05-04T16:43:00.000+02:002009-05-04T16:43:00.000+02:00I think I probably was Coll staff when you were a ...I think I probably was Coll staff when you were a PT vol. I was there from 89-91 and might have selected/trained/debriefed you or even been your desk officer as RSA was one of my countries.

I wonder if you were on the staff at our selection and training in Coll?<br /><br />Siobhan - we have lucked out with the weather, but it is pretty cold today. Definitely no toe dipping in the sea. I'm such a wuss though, some people were swimming.<br /><br />Dotteral - we would win the moaning Olympics.

Yes, I'm a PTV, and ex-staff (I lived two years on Coll) and am now even PT rep in Hong Kong although the project here at the Outward Bound centre in Sai Kung is one of Project's oldest and really runs itself. Where were you? I was in Zimbabwe in 85/86. My mother-in-law was a colleague and used to train the English teachers and then she introduced me to her son. The rest is history but we tease her about it being an arranged marriage. It's a blog post I haven't got round to yet! Two of my great friends from uni who came to visit me on Coll have been with the FCO and his most recent overseas posting was as Ambassador to Bosnia. We visited them in Sarajevo and skied in Jahorina. What a small world it is. I enjoy reading your blog.Mutterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06720936545179612420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3519883976018465014.post-75659317262794814782009-05-04T01:44:00.000+02:002009-05-04T01:44:00.000+02:00What a lovely post.
