Last 2 weeks
Came to Dubai 14th Feb 2008 but time is up, in my last 2 weeks and just about everything sorted, flight booked, most furniture sold, Dewa informed, bank account just about emptied, last salary not going in the bank so that's easy, Etisalat sorted and just Du to do. Couple of nights in hotel prior to flight, never been on 380 and want to go on it so flying to Manchester instead of Newcastle, plus cat has to go to Manchester anyway.
Can't say have had any real problems shutting everything down, deposits are not easy to get back but that's the UAE for you.
Really enjoyed my time here, would advise anyone under the right circumstances to go for it, managed to pay my original debts off, mainly caused by divorce, that was one of the reasons for coming and also managed to put few bob in the bank.
Time now to spend some time with my grandchildren and son and daughter.
Will be hanging around on the bored a little longer but not sure how long, just to say this site is difficult for newbies but hang in there, take the abuse and its worth it, it's a mind of information.
Thanks everyone.
