    You make an off-topic biatch's comment to draw me in and distract from tc ripping you a new one, then you proceed to do exactly what you're accusing me of.

    Great way to bolster an argument, fat-necked rancid hypocrite.

    As opposed to going out of your way to make an unprompted biatch's comment?

    Look its quite easy. Tom spent many years in Muslim countries and immersed himself thoroughly in carpets. Tom detests the Church and all things Christian. Tom baited the hook and cast the line and is very happy with the nibbles he's getting. Syb is as usual poking his head round another posters coat tails and taking pop shots.

    And you sticking your bewhiskered snout out of your drainpipe in short order afterwards, as per.

    I see you've just sucessfully consigned yet another thread to the sewer (unpopular opinions).

    Must be time for you to have another hen now.

    True. He, like many of the ignorant, fears anything he cannot grasp or understand.

    Good they are getting rid of flogging.. must be all part of the Vision 2030 that the Crown Prince is trying to achieve.

    Saudi Arabia Vision 2030 lays out targets for diversification and improving competitiveness. It is built around three main themes which set out specific objectives that are to be achieved by the year 2030.[8]

    1. A vibrant society: urbanism, culture and entertainment, sports, Umrah, UNESCO heritage sites, life expectancy.
    2. A thriving economy: Employment, women in the workforce, international competitiveness, Public Investment Fund, Foreign direct investment, private sector, non-oil exports.
    3. An ambitious nation: Non-oil revenues, government effectiveness, and e-government, household savings and income, non-profits and volunteering.

    better left ignored.. bb dear. I've had Cy on ignore for a dog's age yet he continues. People are strange behind a keyboard.. I agree it is not a battle and possibly why a few don't post much or at all on here.

    Get into an accident and it's your fault; not sure who got that idea first but it's much the same with farangs in Thailand.

    Oh, really... wow. I was living illegally as a tourist in Kuwait even though I worked there.
    I was working on a tourist visa because I was never given a residence visa after being promised, and when my school van got into an accident one time, I was told not to tell them where I worked. Tsk tsk.

    Well-described.
    If it actually is KW (and we only have the say-so of Ant that it is), then he has had brain damage and resultant large drop in IQ.

    Well, there are two trips - one is mandatory (if you can afford it), the haj. The other one is the 'little haj', called umrah. It's not a replacement for the haj, rather wealthier people go several times to 'cleanse' and 'connect'.

    Qatar the same - if you have an accident with a Qatari (who drive like absolute idiots - through red, park anywhere...) then it is automatically your fault and the drivers don't wait until the cops come. They take photos and bugger off

    Correct, Haj is also only available once per yer, and therefore difficult to get in as they use a lottery system for choosing who can attend.

    Umrah is offered all the other times, and while doesnt count for attending Haj, is an attractive plan b for many.
