Jeddah Here is an unknown quantity at this point
Smile Re: Accommodation in Jeddah

Reading the general chat this morning sounds like there is hope out there in Jeddah. Got to be better than the UK, talk about freedom...I must have been photographed over 100 times on my way to work this morning, over an hour to do 10 miles ! It really is turning into a Big Bother is watching you State... in the cities you are quite likely to be set upon by the CCTV camera with loudspeaker !...."don't run across the road, walk !"..."hey, don't gather in groups of more than 4", reminds me of the series 'The Prisoner'.

No, I have got to get out of here ! Bombings..well as someone said we have them here too, they are all over Europe, we had the IRA, so now we have other variations of terrorists, here and in Saudi, I suppose at least we're all fighting the same guy now !

On a brighter note...the weather here is great at the moment
