Hi guys,

I just received a job offer to come and work on a construction job in barbados for a couple of years, and was looking to find out some information about it first.

Basically the main deciding factor will be, how easy is it to watch football (soccer) over there? I know it's sad, but without football I'd go mental.

I've had a look around the forums and it seems from other threads that food is about the same cost as in England, is that correct please?

Thanks in advance
Dan

This is pretty funny! Well there is DTV and a bunch of SportsBar/Pubs where they show the games so you should be fine. If you require nothing else you will be absolutely fine here in Barbados.

Absolutely.....you can see all the Champions League and UK Premiership matches....i know that for a fact....my partner watches them all (i don't!)

That's great thanks! another thing for the positives list.

and now for a few more serious questions, do you know what kind of hours construction workers work over there? also, how many national holidays are there a year?
