The 2 Muscat-eers: Nakhal Fort
http://the2muscateers.blogspot.com/2008/11/nakhal-fort.html
3 Months, 2 Brits, 1 Country. Wednesday, 12 November 2008. Something really fishy is going on along the Muscat coastline - we're being overwhelmed by the most horrendous smell of dead fish washed up on the shore due to algae.

The 2 Muscat-eers: Goodbye Mr Chips
http://the2muscateers.blogspot.com/2008/11/goodbye-mr-chips.html
3 Months, 2 Brits, 1 Country. Wednesday, 5 November 2008. And there we have it. After a seemingly eternal build-up, Barack Obama has won the US elections. Good - I could never trust someone who shares his name with a brand of oven chips to lead the world's most powerful country. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The 2 Muscat-eers: Yellow Bird Project
http://the2muscateers.blogspot.com/2008/11/yellow-bird-project.html
3 Months, 2 Brits, 1 Country. Friday, 7 November 2008. I'd just like to plug a great initiative that I've recently found - the Yellow Bird Project. It designs t-shirts with musicians and sells them online, with proceeds going to a charity of the musician's choice. Go to www.yellowbirdproject.com. To find out more.

The 2 Muscat-eers: September 2008
http://the2muscateers.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
3 Months, 2 Brits, 1 Country. Monday, 29 September 2008. Greetings from the 2 Muscat-eers! Yes, that's right. just the 2 of us. We don't need a third one. This blog will record our 3 month stay in Oman, where we'll be working at the Sultan's School in Muscat, with a few exciting adventures thrown in too hopefully! We depart for Muscat on the 10th October, so you'll hear from us again then. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Our Facebook Group - Visit to see photos. Hope and Homes for Children.

The 2 Muscat-eers: The Desert
http://the2muscateers.blogspot.com/2008/11/desert.html
3 Months, 2 Brits, 1 Country. Friday, 14 November 2008. Dinner was followed by a good chat and a roaring little camp fire; then at 1am Marcus and I decided to climb up the sand dune again. Since the moon was full, there was a surprising amount of light, and so bizarrely we could see well into the distance as we roamed further into the desert and ran like idiots up and down the dunes. I do hope nobody was watching. Not likely. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Our Facebook Group - Visit to see photos.

The 2 Muscat-eers: Kummah? No? Ok then...
http://the2muscateers.blogspot.com/2008/11/kummah-no-ok-then.html
3 Months, 2 Brits, 1 Country. Saturday, 8 November 2008. We were planning on going camping again this weekend, but for alcohol related reasons we weren't feeling too pretty on Thursday morning and instead decided to head into the city of Muscat, which is roughly a half hour drive from the school, for a poke around. Well actually we explored Muttrah, which is the in essence the port district, a short distance away from the main city itself. The "hard sell" definitely wasn't on the cards. I liked that.

The 2 Muscat-eers: Happy National Day!
http://the2muscateers.blogspot.com/2008/11/happy-national-day.html
3 Months, 2 Brits, 1 Country. Tuesday, 18 November 2008. Yes, it's the 18th November - that can mean only. um. 3 things: it's Omani National Day, which coincides with the birthday of the Sultan, and it's our 40th day in Oman! This morning had that end of term feeling; the students came in wearing often very colourful traditional Omani dress, not in the mood for work and looking forward to their afternoon off, whilst some of the western members of staff tried to pull off the dish-dasha look. No comment.

The 2 Muscat-eers: Phone Party
http://the2muscateers.blogspot.com/2008/11/phone-party.html
3 Months, 2 Brits, 1 Country. Sunday, 9 November 2008. Last night we thought we'd totally indulge ourselves in Omani culture by taking a trip to the cinema to see the new James Bond film, Quantum of Solace. If you haven't already seen it, it's definitely worth a watch, although I do get the feeling that Bond's taking himself a bit too seriously these days. On a separate note, congratulations to Arsenal on a stirling job yesterday! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Hope and Homes for Children.

The 2 Muscat-eers: Unnerving Persistence
http://the2muscateers.blogspot.com/2008/11/unnerving-persistence.html
3 Months, 2 Brits, 1 Country. Thursday, 20 November 2008. Upon glancing through our guide books a couple of weeks ago, both Marcus and I drew up a vague mental list of things we'd like to do/see whilst here. The Sultan's Armed Forces Museum deserved a visit, we agreed. That would be a nice relaxed trip on some future lazy weekend, we thought: the job's a good'un. Bob's your uncle, etc etc. It's not as if we were going to nick off with a tank or anything. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Our Facebook G...

The 2 Muscat-eers: A Close Shave
http://the2muscateers.blogspot.com/2008/11/close-shave.html
3 Months, 2 Brits, 1 Country. Monday, 3 November 2008. Those nerves enlarged somewhat when, upon entering the Barbers, I was greeted by a young Indian who had the most ridiculous greasy curtains for a hair style, who displayed a truly unnerving Sweeney Todd-esque grin, and who spoke next to no English. No turning back now, I thought, and so to the chair I went. Thankfully. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Our Facebook Group - Visit to see photos. Hope and Homes for Children.
