Recent threads........... a new trend........?
Is it my imagination, or is there a far larger proportion of Saudi-related threads lately?
A year or so ago, 'what's it like in Riyadh?' threads were as rare as one-legged can-can dancers, but nowadays, the place is full of them.
Is there something behind this? Are more people looking at Saudi as a potential place to work, having heard that Dubai is going off the boil?

They'll feel right at home here then, cos Riyadh doesn't have any sparkle . . .

Actually I think it's because people see Saudi as being safe within the current economic climate. Don't know if that's true or not, I just hope we don't get inundated with a bunch of ex-Dubai lovvies . . . .
