How to Survive in the Desert Amid Wars of Mass Destruction & The Hell of Burning Oil Wells In a Clapped-Out Toyota Cressida: a Short Guide for the Over 50s
Do not put any faith in 4-wheel drive vehicles, sand ladders, spare this & that, extra petrol, extra water………….etc……
Put your faith where it belongs: in God.
Pay attention to nature around you. Learn from it, do not try to fight it.
Take flight where appropriate. Remember your Kung Fu or Tai Chi at all times.
Learn to bend with the wind, go with the flow. Use local knowledge when available. Learn the language for goodness sake.
Always trust the Bedouin. Make him your friend. He makes a bad enemy. As an escort to safety once, he has accepted the responsibility, he cannot be bettered.
Become that grain of sand that drifts off the dunes in the hot winds.
