A potentially dull drinks party before Christmas was transformed by meeting with a local Bahraini, who when we discovered our daughters had similar academic interests, said you must come round for a meal. Sadly it was impossible to get our daughters together- time ran out- but we had a wonderful meal and a wonderfully open conversation both with all the young people and their parents and both Tricia and felt that this was the beginning of new friendships and the opening of new doors for us. |
