Wednesday 29th PM

I just had to share this: Ahmed (pronouced Ackmed) my Iraqi friend I talked about many posts ago who is in Site Management sends this invitation and hand delivered it to me:

"Re: China-Irak

Dear Friends,

I am inviting you all to attend the fooball (soccer, if you like) match between China & Iraq at Al-Arabi club at 7:30pm on 29 November.

I will be glad to buy you tickets in case you don't have time to buy them, assuming that you will all be supporting the Iraqi team.

You can invite all you friends if you like....including the Chinese ones.

I have a big TOYOTA Land Cruiser and I can fill it with whoever doesn't have a car (can take 8 of you).

PS: All Brits & Americans will be safe & welcomed among the Iraqi supporters. You are all under my protection. That includes you too, Aussies...LOL...just carry the Iraqi flag and a picture of...of...damn! who is our president these days?!

Will be so happy to see you all there,

Ahmed .... .....
