Pleased to hear it Neil , hope the other person made it through to the other side in one piece.
thanks for your concern CM yes he was ok.
Hope you’re mailing a Humvee home piece by piece just like Radar posted his Jeep home in MASH.
Loved the pic of the container.

Neil, don’t know if you’re keeping a diary or not mate but if you are, together with your pictures, it would make a brilliant book. Looks like you’ve already got 6000 advance sales at say,tenner a copy. Not too shabby,is it?
Best of luck mate. Keep safe.
well i arrived back in kuwait safely got to apartment at 06.45 and felt like i hadent been away.
went to the drivers meeting at 18.00 and it seems that if we dont win the contract that we are tendering for we will be home 1st week of july unless we can transfer to the company that does get it.
anyway off on a mission today lumbered with being convoy supervisor.will report when i get back.
enjoy your bank holiday

Bank Holidayâ– â– ? What Bank Holidayâ– â– ? 
well i am back safely yet again report and some pics to come later.
glad to see you made it back safe and sound
things appear to be going downhill in Iraq again, or is it just that there has been a few slow news days in the UK with the elections and infighting.
Australlian hostages, suicide bombers and convoy attacks 
I reckon there have been 100 murders this week alone
