Sahraa ingratiating herself

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

We ran into this man and his two dogs at Al Sheeh Garden, and Sahraa as usual didn’t have much interest in the dogs but was quite taken with the owner.

Amazingly enough, this is the person who was trying to break in to our property about a month ago. He was with the landlord of the house next door, who was confused as to which house he owned. The man and his wife, who came back again, trying that time to get into the garden next door to look at the irrigation system, were apprehended by the police. Some explanation cleared the whole mistake up, but they were mortified that they had caused me such a panic. What a small world it is here!

If Sahraa likes him, he must be OK. Besides, he has two dogs of his own! What a peculiar coincidence and proves once again, as you say, that it is a small world. V
