I would try that. Never look a gift horse and all that. I've eaten at a Hindu Ashram for free in London. Bloody good it was too. Seemed to me a better religion than the one I was born into, which only ever wanted my money and to bugger me.

My missus has just been renewing her Saudi visa but she won’t be going during Ramadan, she’ll fly out on the last day and get there as it ends.

The young and the old arn’t expected to fast, but the country goes upside down during Ramadan, people sleep during the day, get up at dusk and then eat. The shops are closed , mostly , during the day and open all night.

Shes going for our grandsons birthday, it’s on the 10th, but as it’s Ramadan , they’ll wait till it’s over before having his party.

Cheers.

At the risk of repeating myself. Whilst there we met up with some marines based not far from Malaz. A Canadian guy invited us to their compound, about 90 kliks, for a Ramadan drink. When we got there everyone was in arty mood drinking G&T’s

 and having a good time. We were given a table which had  a water pitcher and glasses which we didn’t find amusing. Thing was the pitcher was full of Gordon’s gin so all ended well. Jok.

Been there, done that and, literally , got the T shirt ! LOL !

My daughter’s fiancé was Gunnery Sergeant with the Marine Detachment at the American Consulate in Jeddah and we would have a drink at their Brass Eagle bar on a Wednesday night.

Thursday night it was drinks at the British Consulate where my son worked.

Not bad for a supposedly “dry” country ! LOL !

Cheers.
