Cremation in England on 11 March. Shipping mortal remains from KSA to the Uk is a complex matter - and non-Muslims may not be buried on Saudi soil. |

Well, scot, dead body of an expatriate executed in the Magic Kingdom was/is the exception of the above law.
I think the law of non-muslim not to be burried in the Magic Kingdom has been changed after 2012.
Saudi Arabia to allow burial of non-Muslims

If you do not want to die as an expat in the Magic Kingdom, then this is the time to start packing up and leave. |

It seems in the Magic Kingdom you have to live every day with eternity in your mind! |

Zara461 seems to be the reincarnation of a popular former poster. Has 007 become 461? |

461 divided by 007 - 0065.85. Very suspicious! |
