This is my desk. As you can see it’s huge and totally contradicts the importance of my status! I share my office with Montaha, lovely Saudi lady. She likes cats and has 3 children (or maybe 4). Anyway, she is one of the Arabic translators/readers of sense once stuff has been translated. It feels cheeky as we have much bigger offices than a lot of other people and esp those upstairs – a lot of the blokes are in teeny tiny cubicles, which would be ok and quite snug – apparently the reason we’re in offices is so the Saudi ladies can shut the door at lunch at take off their headscarves etc. But it seems a bit joshy from our point of view as there is only one of them in our dept at the moment who 'covers' anyway, so lucky us!!
