Hello Clive,

I'm afraid I'm out of my element in the middle-east. However, Jerseygirl and Sue will be by in no time to welcome you properly, and give you helpful links and useful information ... and they always know the right forum to post in to get the answers your looking for.

But until you're better welcomed, greetings from Ontario Canada!

With every good wish,
Christian

Hello Christian,

Thanks for our reply it is good to hear from ex-pats who have already trodden your future path (if that makes sense). I'm quite looking forward to my new venture, I've been all over the world over the past 30 years but never the middle east apart from a jolly to Egypt. Anyway, thanks again.

Hello Clive...welcome to BE.

I see you have already posted in our Middle East Forum...the people who post in there will help you with your questions about moving to the ME. The main forum is for topics relating to the Middle East...the Sand Pit is for general chit chat. There is also an Introduction thread in the Sand Pit...why don't you pop over there and introduce yourself?

If you find yourself a little lost navigating the many BE forums...we have a team of concierges who will direct you around the website. The concierge for the Middle East forums is Blue Cat...please contact her if you need any help.

If you have any problems or concerns please contact a moderator. The mods for the ME forums are Bob, NorthernLad and rowell.

Please shout out if you need any help...there's usually someone around 24/7 to help out.

Hello and a big welcome to BE.

Excellent information can be found in the BE Wiki, not forgetting the Living and Moving Abroad forum that will help you, another set of great help is the permanent threads at the TOP of each forum, they are very pertinent to that particular forum and makes sensible reading.

Moderators deal with any problems that arise such as inappropriate posts, spammers etc, you will find their names at the bottom right hand side of each forum's index in bold font.

Please contact me if I can give you any further help.
