A question has been on my mind since I read the following:-

Do you think going back to UK in 2002 was a smart move keeping in view the difficulties you faced?( Regardless of how you were successful later)
Or did you already have a backup plan before deciding to go back to UK?

It was a move I had to make. As my family grew up first my son had to leave Saudi and come back to UK for his schooling as the British school in Riyadh only goes up to year 8. Than my daughter had to leave for the same reason in 1998 and along with that my wife left as well to be with our children. I spent 4 years on my own in Riyadh and that as you would know, living in Saudi on your own, can be very testing time. I was missing my family and than the prince I was working for died as well and even though his younger brother who took over the Arab News empire wanted me to continue I thought it was time to leave. I knew there were going to be difficult times ahead in UK but never realised that it was going to be that difficult. But than I love challenges, I have never shied away from them.
