Hi guys.
Andy here, I am a South African/Brit moving to Riyadh at the end of September 2010. I will be working for as an engineer for a commercial food chain, designing and building cold storage facilities and food factories.

The job is based in Riyadh, but I will be doing a lot of travelling around the GCC to sites and suppliers.

I haver already been to Saudi on 2 seperate occassions, so hopefully there will be no big suprises when I get there.

I hope to settle down quickly, meet some like minded people and set up home ready for my wife joining me in Jan 2011.
