It was sat more upon a big bit of desert, really.

Sorry about the poor quality of the photo, but here is an exterior shot of that same "office"! If you look closely, you can just make out Peter's white Cressida and my old brown Mazda 323 (a great little car, that) parked next to it. You can be sure it was mine, because (as you may recall) I always like(d) to reverse in. And old habits (especially good ones) die hard!

Got it now? smile

Happy Days, yes ... but I wonder if you're sure where that is (or rather, was). Clue ... it wasn't this one! smile

Well done, Tony. I knew I could count on you!

I've still got a snap of the famous "Norwich Clones" about here somewhere (but not scanned in, unfortunately ... I've just had a look). So you'll have to make do with this one (taken at the same time as the others). That's 24 years ago now, Mate.

By the way, did I mention that I called in at Norwich a couple of years ago? It was great seeing those guys again. You will remember Colin Barber, of course. Not sure if you ever met Dave Laurence. All good mates (back in those days, at least) of your mate Kim.

More "absent friends" with a Norwich connection:- Dave Gifford (my nemesis). What has become of them all? smile

I remember Dave Gifford, Irving Clark and George ( titters ) Titterington from the Shannings Team at the Royal.

I believe Poor old Irvings in the " Great Biomed Shed in the Sky " last I heard of George he was in Jeddah at M.O.H.

I never saw Dave Gifford anymore after he " left " Oman !!

I believe Kim is working for Caroline in one of her other companies
(not ebme )

Happy Days indeed mate.

You mentioned the name Titterington Tony. Was his name by any chance George? Ex Army medical biomed I believe, who I had the great pleasure of working with for a number of years at Riyadh KKUH in the 80's. Wonder where he is now?

George Titterington. Ex-REME Electromed (or "Med & Dent", if you prefer). Last heard of (as far as I recall) at Yanbu, I believe. Would have been mid-90's. Perhaps Neil can confirm?

He came from the Isle of Man, you know! I should imagine that George must be retired by this time. But how can anyone be sure that he doesn't get on here ... under a noms de guerre? smile

Don't remenber meeting him in Yanbu, did have the dubious pleasure of meeting him in Jeddah in the late 80's though.
