Default Qatar vs Dubai

I have just joined this forum today, and already I have a strong feeling that people here are rather anti my beloved Qatar

Well, I have been living in Doha for 6 yrs now: my cats are happy, my dog is happy, even the budgie keeps chirping happily! and my tomatoes are happy too

And where in Dubai could you find a free square meter to plant tomatoes? let alone take the dog for a walk ..... the place is just one huge building site!

Dubai isn't that bad....but then I don't have a dog and I certainly don't grow tomatoes...

Hi Wendy
I am looking to move to Qatar or Dubai and would appreciate your views on Qatar.
I am hoping to get a job in the oil/gas sector.

Thanks Anne

even after all the negative posting I have seen on here regarding Qatar, I would move there if we had too. Rather like the idea of somewhere quieter than here. If not I would like to get out of dubai and go to RAK or Al Ain, but most of you know that anyway.

Somebody had to poke around the sore point
yes, AA, there is a lot of building going on in Doha too, but, at least the site is smaller

Anne / Blue Cat

If you have work you love, and a husband who loves you, Qatar is great! ..... I will however concede - without that, and without even a dog, Doha can be a desolate place for some, especially those without a certain amount of imagination
