As part of my potential overseas trip I have been offered a trip to Petra. The response from a former workmate of mine was ‘My goodness……if you don’t take LOTS of pictures I’ll be very cross!!’. Actually, I am now a whole lot happier about things after speaking to him. I will have to ask if he wants to swap jobs for a week… Judging from the way he was talking, he would be prepared to go into Iraq if he could visit Petra. And I was thinking of not going to Petra…
