I'm now in Dubai. I'm here at the invitation of the Arabian Gulf Referees for the Dubai Rugby 7's - a major event on the world rugby calendar. Expecting 20000-30000 at matches on Thursday and Friday. Will be refereeing Australia v Canada in a pre-tournament trial match tomorrow (Tuesday) afternoon).I thought it might be worth a mention on Carnarvon but not one to blow my own trumpet. Not sure if I can send photos from here but will endeavour to when I have a few more. Going to the beach shortly then a desert safari tonight (complete with belly dancer and dinner).
Hope all goes well for the family.
I fly back on Saturday evening and will have a two hour stopover in Singapore, before continuing on to Brisbane on Sunday (Brisbane). Reach Bris airport 7.30pm
