Re: Hows the TV in Qatar?

OSN is available in Qatar. In Dubai they have a recordable box similar to SKy Plus so I am sure you will be able to get that in Qatar too. Their customer service is pretty helpful, you can email them...

Re: Possible move to Doha

Oh I missed all the fun on here today.

Well said! I work for a b*tch so it is not always easy juggling work demands and home life. But then I know this b*tch very well and the next one could be...

Re: Possible move to Doha

See point 6 - Husband works for the same entity in DXB and Doha so that could be why as well.

Also re point 1 on there, he did not have to relinquish his UAE licence, when he got his Qatari one.

Re: Rent Renewal

So what happens if they don't accept your offer? How do they get you out of the property? Do they have to lodge a case at RERA?

This was Paul's in Doha. Are you in Doha? Love their coffee in Dubai, but the one I went to in Doha served up what tasted like treacle!

Re: Doha.... January 2013

A bit like the coffee! I went to Paul's and it was such a disappointment. The best coffee I had was at the cupcake place at Katara.
