Abu Dhabi Why?
 
On my first day moving to Abu Dhabi I spend all morning waiting for removal van to turn up but it was 3hours late!
They did not have a Salik tag...Why?
Got to Abu Dhabi and the hotel aircon was not working properly ..still isnt?
The fully equiped kitchen has loads of cupboards no stove and only two cups and a sink?
The internet was down for a week? Still no wireless?
The hotel pub wont be finished until next week although they said June?
The taxi's have seat belts but nothing for them to click into so are useless. Not sure what the rugs on the taxi dashboards are for? Anyone?
Oh and one of the waitresses in the coffee bar keeps giving me nasty looks??
And I'm bored......
Apart from that its ok....:eek:
