too much sand, too much sun and not enough camels to go round

conversely to the above we have the welsh, no sand, lots of rain and way too many sheep

The problem is that most of the Arab world simply cannot afford what we consider to be absolute necessities- a decent graphics card for example. I would be unhappy also if I was in their shoes.

Does this mean that I'm now an Arab?

I know I've spent almost a year of my life out that way, but I wash at least once a week, I use toilet paper, and my wife dares to go out in public with her face showing (Oi, I know what you're thinking! ), and she drives! (Ok, now you can think that!).
