    Yuk.

    You aint come across any camel spiders? Evil bastards they are.

    Mate of mine got bitten of mossies when playing golf. Got Dengue. We thought he just had flu. Plied him with loads of spirits. Next day intensive care. He pulled through like.

    When I was out in Saudi I never had temperatures like that.

    Down in the South West, in Khamis Mushayt, at over 10,000 feet altitude, it was never an issue.

    I was only ever bothered by it down on the Red Sea coast, or Riyadh. Hated that heat with a passion!

    Don't know the course at all but one over handicap is pretty good mate.
    Always tricky playing on a windy day not knowing how much to compensate, don't mind the wind or rain but hate it when you get both together :headbang:
