This is a part of "Tent City" an area just out of Kuwait where the camel herders live. These are just a few of them there were quite a lot out there.
This sewing machine was for sale at the Friday Markets, along with plenty more interesting gems!
This guy was running late for the Camel Conference!
The Camel Conference!
Ah...This is a sheep being skinned by one of the tent guys! Notice the hygienic conditions he is working in!! (Sorry to any vegetarians!) 
I like to call this guy the real life "Colin The Camel"
Another poor sheep!
A close up of the tent in the back ground of the picture above. Just some men sitting around while a sheep is being skinned outside their window....LOVELY!!
More Camels just sitting around chilling out in the Kuwait sunshine.
One of the little streets in Bahrain, notice it doesn't have the rubbish that the streets of Kuwait have! 
Some spices for sale out the front of a shop in Bahrain. Middle East is spice heaven!
My first glass of wine! What can I say I wanted to savor the moment! 
These pipes are commonly seen around Kuwait and also Bahrain. You smoke a very strong tobacco through them. I think its called Sheesha (but don't quote me on that!) There are lots of sheesha cafes where men in White sit around smoking and getting high not to mention frightfully congested lungs from smoking the tobacco. I have wanted to take a photo of someone actually smoking them but for now a display in a shop will have to do!

Hey chickie, with a sewing machine like that you'd make some Arab a fantastic wife!! How good was that glass of wine - it did look like wee but when you're a desperate alcho I guess you can't be too choosy! Can't wait to see you . Love you Sars and Lang xoxo
