Be careful what you wish for

The BBC tells me its going to be between 35-38 degrees in Dubai this week - with a crippling 60+ percent humidity.

In between doing the jobs of three people, becalming fractious journalists and trying not to go mental in the process, I'll hopefully get the opportunity to escape the air-conditioned hell of hotel-land to play fast and loose with frizzy hair.

Sometimes it's good to be me...
