A quite day in Amsterdam

Well hello there all my dearest readers (all 3 of you) , yes you're one of them.
Got up at the usual time of 9am my alarm clock (Sister) on time as usual.
A very nice day in Amsterdam, Cold but sunny and no wind. The canal is nearly totally frozen over but not thick enough to start skating unless your a duck.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Got the croissants (Up 50 cents ) now Euro 85 and made the eggs, I Must confess I am getting a bit sick of the old scrambled eggs every day since 1987. But with nothings else to eat for breakfast I will have to continue eating them. 21 eggs a week and 14 croissants.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Busy day on the cleaning front, 11 cleaning jobs this week so I am joining the crew this week.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Had a great guest down with us today, Her name is Claire (Not her real name just in case) and she is slightly crazy (like meself). We have a great laugh, She was telling me all about how she joined the army reserve, She was in her local mall (shopping centre) and was walking past the recruitment office and on the spur of the moment joined up. Next thing she knows is she is over in Iraq. How the hell I ended up
She was telling me all about how crazy it was over there.
Things like Halley Burton employee's sitting about in an airconditioned trailer while they employ a load of lower life forms to do there job.
After a days work the terrorists / freedom fighters throw anything they can get there hands on over the walls, hand grenades, mortars etc, some explode some don't. But usually the days work is blown up so the next day the lower forms arrive for work and start to rebuilt the things which were blown up during the night and this goes on and an over and over day after day, month after month.
She says the Halley Burton people are on 5 times the salary of any solider, She was on $3000 a month but Halley Burtons are on $15.000.
She thought many times about claiming to be insane or gay or shoot her toe off just to escape but she says it's best just to keep your head down (in all ways) and get on with it because if you get dishonorably discharged it will effect your entire life,
She got enrolled for 8 years. Anytime during the 8 years you can be recalled to serve. She is now doing medicine hoping to become a doctor but at anytime she might have to give up the studies and head off to help in the latest American government (regime) change.
At least she is seeing a bit of the world I guess.

Move on to tomorrow and I'll see you there.
