I guess Jordan, and Amman in particular, is not fully representative of the middle east as a whole. The hotel itself is a very swanky and westernised Sheraton with plenty of facilities that I won't use apart from Wi-fi and a bar.
A slight lie, as this is the pool I was sitting around whilst blogging with a beer!

Jordan ! What is it you do for a living? Arms dealer???????
Near enough! Metal boxes... for Metal Box!
I dont know how i came across your post, I just want to comment on one thing "I guess Jordan, and Amman in particular, is not fully representative of the middle east as a whole", your absolutely 100% about that
Russ - I work for Crown (ex MetalBox). We make food and bev cans, but we have over 70 plants worldwide making all sorts of metal packaging. We have a plant in Amman and four others in the middle east - this was a joint meeting with all of my fellow quality managers from the other European and ME plants.
Bashar - I see you have a shared interest in Depeche Mode! I wish I had more time to see Jordan properly, sadly this really was a brief business trip. Our hosts from our plant in Amman took us to a couple of relatively traditional restaurants and to the Dead Sea (albeit the touristy hotel centre) - at least this gave the opportunity to see more of natural beauty of Jordan as a whole.
