[oman-l] Any ancient ABAers?

[Floor Ms J.]

I just received the email about the five year old about to attend ABA, and 
this wave of nostalgia hit me (rather sad for a 24-year old), so: are there 
any ABAers from the beginning on this list?  Back when it was mainly 
portocabins, Mrs Leggat as principal who I think was initially the history 
teacher at Muscat English Speaking School, and that opening day with the 
special song '190 muscat the A-B-A, the 12th of September (December?) was 
our first day' - a masterpiece.

If this sounds faintly familiar to you, let me know

Also, I am thinking of going diving around Salalah in February 99, ideally 
for a week with also scope for on land exploring.  Any suggestions what the 
best approach would be?  Apparently there is an amazing 'gate' or wall to 
look at, does this sound familiar?  What is marine life like over there, how 
different from the Bustan area?

Thanks

Jo
