I miss my favourite paintings, bookstores, and public transit.<br /><br /><br />----Yes, what can we write of, when it is so easy to know who we are?

Are you not paid for your work? Isn't that the way the world works? Of course I've received freebies in the past, and will continue to take up some offers in the future, but the number of freebies that I take are *A LOT* lower than you might think.<br /><br />For example, I've never once been to an event organised by Axis Events that I can think of, I've not been to an Alive Events concert since they moved out to the Shang, the list goes on. The number of free meals I'm offered that I don't accept, probably on average 5 a month.<br /><br />If you'd like more content then drop me an email with some suggestions - I'm always very happy to receive constructive criticism! If I had the time I'd love to wax lyrical about a whole number of things, but with journalists being thrown in jail for 3 years and newspapers being shutdown, it's just simply not worth it to poke the bear.Sythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09864800112417099664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2368053937631641478.post-28969728218170530662016-09-28T12:48:17.457+04:002016-09-28T12:48:17.457+04:00Sale or no sale, BA and Omanair have also had plen...Sale or no sale, BA and Omanair have also had plenty of (direct) London flights in Nov for 200 rials return in the past few weeks.
