Sorry you have to go there. I lived there for 7 months in 1990-1991 and swore I'd never go back. What a hole - and full of hypocrites.
I used to work for a British guy in HK who had been an expat in the region (he was based in Sharjah, I believe) and he told me that the Saudis would drive over the causeway to Bahrain on the weekends to get totally tanked.
