    You don't think there's a properly formulated plan surely :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. Couple of months hopefully :).

    GG! Thats amazing news, congratulations! :j

    I too love Mr GG's way with words :D

    It's not one of the countries where women aren't allowed to drive their own car, is it? I think not, but I'm just checking :p Actually, what the h*ll, even if it is, what an experience! The nephew who's just become a dad for the first time this year had a year teaching English in Saudi (Scouser Saudi kids _pale__pale__pale_ ) and a distantish cousin was a teacher to a royal family in the region ... absolutely brilliant to pootle about exploring the area and the cultures (and the [STRIKE]booze [/STRIKE] food).
