Packed most of my clothes and stuff. Sold my house last year when i went to Saudi so all my stuff has been in storage for a while now...will get that shipped over once i have sorted out a villa.

The hardest thing is trying to keep the weight of the suitcase down !

how things going for your move ??

Understand about suitcase weight - I always travel with too much stuff so moving is going to be a nightmare!

All OK thanks - still have some time so will now worry until after Xmas (she says!!)

Have you sorted out your accomm or do you have to move into a hotel?

JD


Once u get yr visa the full UAE takes about an hur to get + eye test + pp form in Arabic.

You can get a tourits DL that allows u to drive a private car - quite handy if u know someone with one spare..

The company are covering a hotel for two weeks, so that will give me time to find somewhere.

I was gonna buy but TA5 has put me off the idea.. think ill rent for a while and see how the market pans out
