Green obscene

Behind the trees and flowerbeds of the deceptively tranquil Green Community housing development (million dirham concrete blocks in the middle of the desert) lies a seething underworld of infidelity and depravity.

One separated wife and her new partner have even taken to lurking behind palm trees with a long range lens, trying to get a snap of her husband and his mistress, who live a few doors away. This after the spiteful hubby informed on his ex-wife and her lover to police.

"It's so far from anywhere there: you don't want to go anywhere because of the traffic, so there's little else to get up to," one Green Georgina explains sadly. "But I don't know what happened to just playing Scrabble or Monopoly of an evening."

Or Twister?

"Ah, well that's where it all starts," she confides.
