Not sure why you picked on me...it was you who started it..."so this Jock comes to Saudi..." Sounds like "so this man walks into a bar..."

I'm sure your mate wouldn't appreciate such schadenfreude from you !

I doubt any westerners have been though as it is not illegal for westerners/non Muslims to drink if they have an alcohol licence

you mean two UAE nationals ??

i am talking about none nationals if one of them has a licence to drink why would they lash him?

He was drink-driving, which of course is stupid and potentially life-threatening to innocent people and therefore a very bad thing, however, he told me he got lashed more because he was a drunk muslim, than because he was a drunk driver.
