Uncle Scott, are you going to attend this conference in Al-Khobar?
If yes, pass my regards to Dr Al-Ansari, he is an old colleague of mine. |

I may pop over to KSA just to see their May 29th or June 12th business meetings. It looks like a worthy cause. I hope this group grows. |

"just pop over" What about the tiresome necessity of a visa ? Maybe you have Saudi nationality ? Or GCC nationality ? Everyone else needs a visa. |

He can pop over on the way to Bahrain; just get a transit visa and drive through.
Mind you, he'd be wasting good golf/drinking time at KSAALT. |

I'll be there, scot. I'll be the one dressed all in black from head to toe. You can't miss me. Will you be there? |

Well, I guess Uncle Scot will not be able to see or recognize you. Because men and women will be separated from each other and there is no way Uncle Scott can see you! l

That one is not Uncle Scot, it is the cousin of Uncle Bandar whose duty is to observe and check that Uncle Scot is behaving according to the laws of the land!  |
