Finally the apricots bloomed and I have received my e-tickets. I will be flying for Riyadh on Monday (30/11/09) and then to Hail on Saturday (05/12/09). I decided to stay few days in Riyadh at my friends as the University doesnt open till the 5th. Please feel free to let me know if you have any advice before I fly....

Thanks for all the advice and suggestions you have provided so far.

Happy Eid

I think Railway3 is a direct hire, so he won�t or should not have any problems. He is going to Hail, and that is where I was and I had my problems with M Trading. Railway3 is not being hired by M Trading, but he is in for a big surprise. The only problem I can see is the housing as they were putting the direct hires in the same hotel as we were in, and it was not very good. The good thing is the direct hires get paid on time. When I looked at the pictures of the university it was fantastic, but when I got there what a difference. All the buildings were under construction, and it is going to take many years to get it like the pictures that they had posted on the internet. Be careful.
