Gathering the resources

A week to go before the very partial Metro opening and they seem to have met the self-imposed deadline of 999 but only just - only ten stations will actually be operating.

In Jebel Ali yesterday they were gathering the elements together, a train on the elevated section rehearsing running through a station and a fleet of feeder buses.





And that's it for a week, we're off to the UK tomorrow morning. Three days in Leicester working and then four days relaxing up in the Peak District.

I'm not sure what we'll be able to do because the weather looks very iffy, the forecast says we'll have top temps between 12C and 17C with plenty of cloud and rain. We might have to spend a lot of time indoors, places like pubs or restaurants maybe...
