Are you there yet????

I thought as my first proper posting I would start with answering the questions asked of me often

·         Are you in Qatar yet?

·         Have you got a date yet?

The short answer to both questions is NO!!!!!!!!!

The explanation is the new hospital build in Qatar has fallen behind schedule and whilst a formal assessment takes place recruitment is being slowed down and stopped for some roles. I have been reassured that my role is one of eighteen lead nursing roles who continue to be for mobilisation once the assessment is complete. The recruitment has been halted for positions below me who I would be managing.

I am expecting to be informed of my mobilisation as an outcome of the assessment review, so a little longer yet but not too far away! The delay has been a blessing as we are now expecting to all go out to Qatar together which is much better and I’ve been around for Milo’s exams which means disruption for him has been reduced. 

So yes we continue to be in ‘Camp Wicklewood’ and very much enjoying our time. Our four bedded house is reduced to, caravan and awning with 30+ years of life together stored in the awning, stacked in eight plastic (64L) boxes as all ‘our stuff’ has gone. None of us miss the house or what was in it but when we chatted last week what did we miss, the response was

·         Dylan and I agreed our beds

·         Milo,  decent broad band

·         Jerry, his big telly. – No surprises!!!!

It would be nice to see you if you fancy visiting we are at Rose Cottage, NR18 9PX – just drop by.

The pics are of how we are living the occasion being Dylan’s 5^th birthday in early April, when we celebrated an all pirate theme hence hats etc. As an additional treat we took Dylan to Legoland and had a fabulous time, being the last picture taken on a log flume ride. Dylan’s face is hilarious – he is more frightened than me as I had my eyes closed and Jerry doesn’t look too great either!!!! Enjoy. X

Thanks for accepting my invitation for my blog it would be really useful to me if everyone could give me a comment to determine if this is working for everyone as some have had problems. If you are not able to give a comment then let me know by return on my email nicolajsteggles@gmail.com.
