Day 1 - 1st July 2008

Day one, well I say day one but it is in fact day eight for me! It has been quite a quiet one from my behalf. Sorted out accommodation for 250 people yesterday, but nothing ever goes to plan now does it?! There have been a few problems but nothing major. There are only so many times you can walk in and out of a barrack block and not get frustrated when people move things that shouldn’t be moved. I have had a lot of admin to sort out today so it’s been a good few hours in front of the computer for me! Had to stock up the bar again as when you have nearly 300 people you can go through a lot of beer! Been a really hot and humid day so that makes people tired including me. Watching the people on parade today I can only say I am extremely grateful I wasn’t outside on the parade square doing drill because of the heat! I was quite happy watching from the inside the office window!
