Presumably that was Habbaniyah Plateau, not Main.
Remarkably similar to Aden, but without the Rocks.
Not even close!! Aden was truly awful, climate, accommodation, food, entertainment, facilities etc. truly ad nauseam!
Hab, on the other hand had pleasant accommodation, shopping centre, civilised Messes, even a ZOO!!! - absolutely chalk and cheese! Mind you, spent 10 days in Hab hospital recovering from food poisoning (post Aden greed!) - would have been happy to stay.
