The normal police aren’t armed, but the intimidating looking ones who roam around the Government plaza areas, bored and looking for a one-sided discussion, are.

That particular meal wasn’t exactly cordon bleu but the food’s fine here – very similar to Polish and Ukrainian food. So you’d probably feel quite at home culinarily here!

And the feeling hopeful thing is just me falling victim to that widespread superstition about the more you desire something, the less likely it’s going to come about.

And emails getting intercepted? This is Kazakhstan, not the US Exile :)I hardly think that I’m worth going to all that effort for.

Well, you life has taken quite a turn, hasn’t it. I mean, you didn’t have guns in your last few posts. Now they’re a feature. I take it you didn’t find the food satisfying? But, were you full? Because that’s where the rubber meets the road, innit? That’s quite a bit for a few pounds.

What’s wrong with feeling hopeful? Is that not in your best interest or something? Isn’t the London office afraid your email communiques are being read?

The Dead Lake? What a surprise that a novel of that title is set in such a gleaming country, where black snow only falls once in a blue moon, like last Thursday.

Thanks though – I’ve only come out with hand luggage so it literally is just Ulysses and Gargantua and Pantagruel and everything else will have to be sent out, so I’ll add that one to my list .

That sounds like a good plan too.( I forgot your ambivalence to the countryside)
Have you heard about a book called The Dead Lake? It’s set in Kazakhstan, I haven’t read it , but it’s supposed to be good.

I doubt it really. I don’t like discomfort, and all hills and fields look the same to me. I have no interest in the surrounding mountains to be honest. I want to drink, to find a quiet bar full of dropouts, drunkards and ex-prossies, where I can sit and read Joyce and Rabelais, and get a non rip-off taxi home. I know it sounds romantic but that is actually what I want to do here.

This is much better than from our own correspondent ;)

Do you think you’ll get chance to explore a bit out of the capital, the mountains look beautiful !

Daisy –
As you probably know, in the Middle East you can clear 50K / year with nothing to spend it on but your food and your phone. I did apply for a couple of jobs over there but I’m glad they didn’t get back to me. I find that hardline Islamic “culture” backward and repellent; neither would I fancy spending my evenings paying £8 a pint getting bored stiff in the Hilton talking to Tory-voting oil engineers.

Kaz has got a good balance between salary and conditions. Like my till receipt showed, you can get a basic meal here for £2.

I applied for a couple of jobs in Italy, and some of my friends were keen for me to go there, but the salaries are poor. They pay around 1000 Euro – 850 quid – and they tend to subsidise, not provide, accommodation, so you’d be living on about 600 quid a month.

Homer –
Glad we’re 140 miles away from there. I dare say deputy heads will roll, a fine will be paid, and everything will carry on as cancerously normal as ever.
