Cheap three-piece-suits? Or cheap three-piece suites?
Oh yes, there's really a lot of use for the former in KSA!! Unless you want to join the 70s retro club, to look like a throwback to The Brothers or The Sweeney!!! Har, Har, Har.
Do I sense that Brasscat & Co are aspiring members of the exclusive 300 Riyal club, or even the dizzying heights of 30-Club membership?

| In KSA, instant coffee is relatively cheap with known brand names you can feel easy about buying. Ground coffee exists, but is more expensive. |
Yes, it does exist! but it's not expensive. Coffee here is as good as anywhere in the world, and it's very cheap. Around SR40 p/kg for top quality beans, freshly roasted. |

I want to thank all of you for your assistance!
My father died and my mom is frantic (she is 80), so I will have to go home (to USA) for a while to help take care of all the things that need taking care of. This is my farewell letter - maybe in the future I'll join you all in Kobar.
I've notified the school, but as yet have not heard anything. On 15 August was the day set for my coming to you.
See you,
Mike |

Sorry to hear of your father... accept my condolences.
Hope your mother takes care and stays well. You are a good son for leaving a job to go help her. Lots will not care if in your shoes.
Good luck for the future. |

Sorry about your father MB. I can sure relate as this is where I was in 2002 and I ended up retiring early because of it. You will be glad that you did what you could to get your mother through this.
