Today's been eventful...started like something out of a sitcom as I managed to lock myself out of my bedroom wearing only my PJs! I was rescued by a young, 6'2" ex Marine wielding a screwdriver! It's been quite some time since a chap's tried to break into my bedroom!!!

That was shortly followed by the experience of interviewing a prospective H.R Director close to an Iraqi check point wearing a flack jacket. Yet another first!

The night has ended on a high as the guys made me a fab lasagne with salad and fresh bread before ensconcing me in a villa in the Green Zone complete with en suite...pure luxury in comparison with the norm accommodation here.
