Default Mechanical Engineering and stuff

Were trying to come out to Dubai.

My husband is a precision engineer and does not do buildings 'so he says' and I currently run my own independent childcare business.

My questions are:

1. Does anyone know any jobs for a mechancial engineer? He can modify, fabricate etc. Has produced parts for satallites, F1 race cars and now makes and manouevers remotely via ROV type things in a fusion reactor. Problem is the stuff he has done recently has all been very specific so no-one seems interested but he can do alot of engineering disciplines. Just nothing to do with Building high rises!

2. As I currently run my own business I would have to (a) start again and build a new business in childcare from the bottom again or get another type of job. I can do anything that pertains to childcare or office work including sales? Ideas? I am sure that no-one wants to pay £600 per month for me to look after their child in my own home and also deliver the same educational benefits as a nursery. Or would they?

Thanks in anticipation

He could try Abu Dhabi Ship Building - they do some precision fab work. Also may be worth checking with the Victory Power Boat Racing team, again they do some specialist fabrication. There aren't a lot of precision workshops here, it's true.....
