Al Khobar
 

Hi guys, i am a new member and would like to know if there are any members living in Al Khobar in Saudi

Re: Al Khobar
 

There's one or two that either are or have been, but most of us are Riyadh-based now.

We all make pilgrimages to Bahrain as and when though, so we pass through it - but not for long........ that causeway is just too tempting.

Hey jojo!

Lived and worked in Al Khobar for 6 years. We left in 2004 but still have a lot of good friends there. It is a brilliant place to be and we often get nostalgic for it!

Don't know if you are familiar with the middle east.....

One tip: Make sure..and I mean ABSOLUTELY sure that you are working for reputable company. Take nothing on " we'll sort that when you get there" crap. You have been warned!

And when you do get there have a sid&coke on me......

Re: Al Khobar
 

Thanks for the replies.

I have been working as a nanny for a lovely family out here for a year and am a regular at Nada and Las dunas!!

I love it here!

Re: Al Khobar
 

Sid and coke!!! You reckless little minx.........

Actually you might find that these days the real thing is easier to obtain than Sheikh Siddiqui.......

Re: Al Khobar
 

Ahhh Siddiqui...the joys of lighting it to see how pure it is....and then the fun of the seriously bad headache the next day after drinking it all night.

Hoofie2002,

I see you are in Perth WA..?
We are heading that way hopefully in Mar 2009. My wife has dual nationality and I am applying for perm residency under subclass 100.

We should keep in touch as we have quite a lot in common.
