Are there any Book Clubs in Dhahran?
We have one here where I live in China and meet once a month after deciding what to read. We usually get a nice photocopy of the original for the members to read; this keeps down costs.(Yes,Yes I know that's totally illegal but we are a wild bunch here and love to live on the edge )
Also does anyone like astronomy or can play the ukulele????
Can you buy musical instruments? Not that I am any good at playing any!
Cheers. Mr K. Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
PS.I think you all must have figured out by now that it's my day off and it's raining. Laughing Laughing Laughing

Well, The most popular clubs in the Magic Kingdom are: 300 and 500 Clubs. These clubs have nothing to do with books, they are mainly concerned with money saving!!!!

I hope Uncle Scotty is around to give us more info about the miserables of 300 and 500 clubs! Laughing

Mr Bond, what is the accepted approach to such club members. Would you give a 300/500 er a lift to work or invite him round to a barbecue for example, bearing in mind that there is often an element of reciprocity in most social activities???

Well, I do not think there is a reciprocity with a 300/500 miserable.
If I see a 300/500 er in the bus/taxi stop I will make a U turn and change direction. And I will only invite them to a Tamis and Foul restaurant! Laughing
