Hi,

Does anyone have any info on how to join the Caledonian Society in Riyadh, I have tried contacting them through their website without any joy. I have spoken to a couple of other Scottish expats who have also did the same but have also received no reply. Any help would be appreciated.

I have encountered the same thing with the Irish Society ..... too many non-irish people involved so genuine Irish expats cannot get in ... patiently waiting 19 months at this stage contacting them every few months!!
My pal Steven is a member of the Caledonian Society .... i can give you his details by e-mail. wgb.1957@hotmail

Did you ever her anything from them?  I emailed them awhile ago as well telling them that I was a piper and would be willing to play at some of their functions and like you, heard absolutely nothing.  Im not going to chase them around.  I got a better response from the Scottish Society of Dubai!

I'm now a member, it takes a bit of time as the committee doesn't meet too often but they do get there!

Seriously though, is there someone I can email who will actually respond back?

Hello,


Please note that Kevo posted back in 2013 and it's been 5 years since he last visited the website.


I am closing this old thread.
