    Sat in my office in Saudi Arabia when I heard cheering and applause coming from the main sales area, it was most of the salespeople showing their feelings...... I'm pleased to say the company moved all ex - pats out of the kingdom within 3 weeks.

    I was in the house of my friend along with our other classmates doing our school project (we were having sleepovers for a week that time). I was sitting on the bar writing/drawing something when one of my friends switched the channel to CNN and called us showing what was happening. We all stayed glued to the TV all night watching what was unfolding.

    I had just woke up after doing a nightshift, i put the TV on the news Channel and thought i was watching the Movie Channel, i soon realised NO, it wasnt a Movie, one of those moments when you realise what a horrible place the world can be, i hope the various families have managed to move on somehow from this dreadful event.
    Another moment of my life i was just finishing the nightshift, one of the Dayshift arrived and said Princess Di was dead, no-one could believe it.
