Well, it seems I'm not the only Padder from the Arabian Gulf! Conroy from Abu Dhabi beat me to posting on this thread.
I too am British but have lived on the island of Bahrain in the Arabian Gulf for the past 15 years. Originally from the south east of UK but deeply rooted in the West Country through ancestral connections!
Great idea - look forward to seeing the final list.
I am from India. Born in Chennai, Lived a few years in Bombay, then back to Chennai, then went to Jamaica for 5 years, then back to Chennai, then to Bangalore, then to Pennsylvania, US to study, and then now in Gurgaon, near New Delhi in India.
Phew!!!
