Brands for Less

January 5th, 2009 · Mark ·

Brands for Less is a store located in Salmiya opposite Eureka and NBK. Although they’ve been open for around 2 years now yesterday was the first time I passed by. Nat wanted a kitchen scale and she had heard there was a good one at Brands for Less so we went to check it [...]

New Year = Roads

January 5th, 2009 · Bu Yousef ·


Happy New Year Mangaf.

I posted about the roads tender back in July and I’ve been following up the “progress” - very slow progress - on the government website and construction news.  If you add all the information together, it gives an answer of early 2009 for the commencement of works.

I was talking to a neighbour last week and he knows someone in the Ministry of Works.  His information suggests February 2009.  Usually, I wouldn’t have bothered to post this, but the fact that it agrees with the tender closing dates, and generally the amount of time it would take to evaluate and select, it sounds about right to me.

I will of course write once I have confrimation.  If any reader has more information, please add your comments.

Wein el bard!?

January 5th, 2009 · Chikapappi ·

I am feeling pretty “pickled” up right now because it’s warm in the company :/ - forecast people warned us that temperatures would plunge to zero degrees Celsius here in the State of Kuwait (I guess early morning it did) but I still insist it is beautiful outside and I am not comfortable with layering just to be on the safe side.

I even woke up to find an SMS from Skinny about how cold it’ll be today!

Coat

Dress like jumper

Scarf

Boots

Besides what’s underneath.. and of course, my head is covered so yup! It’s hot in here!

All this I take as an exercise for next week enshallah :D - I hope it is snowing or it starts to as I get there *jumping from excitement* !

Now I REALLY don’t want to go there… Now British Police can hack a suspect’s computer without any warrant… Ofcourse alot of people out there would disagree and go extremely nut about it… And some are going against the government with lawsuits and stuff (Liberty)… I just hope nothing like this happens in Kuwait… We’re ALREADY suffering privacy [...]
