Your get out plan

Just talking to a friend at lunch who has a 1 hr get out plan. Just wondering who else has an escape plan in place and what yours entails of? Do you have cash stashed in your house, no more than you can carry, no credit cards etc?

Re: Your get out plan

If you do have a second passport what good is it as it has no visas or entry stamp in it.

I ask as i have dual nationality and blithely thought i was OK until thinking it through.

We have the cash in Katias name, the lkabilities in mine just incase something happens to me. No real plan for leaving though, worst case we drive to Muscat and **** off from there since no electronic control UAE/Oman border. Not likely, but there we are.

But that's obviously breaking the law and no one would ever condone such behaviour. :sneaky:
