Joined the forum yesterday 19.3.11
I'm in Dubai for a few days, based in Qatar. Been there almost 2 years now. Love archaeology, astronomy, doing outdoor stuff along with the rest of the things most of us enjoy.
Hoping to stay in Doha if I can secure the new job I'm after but maybe a move to Cyprus or somewhere else in the ME.
Fave cliches, 'life's what you make it' and 'if you don't like something change it'. Haven't perfected the techniques yet but still trying.
Look forward to chatting when I get to grips with all this. xx[/COLOR][/COLOR]

Hi Lozroz and welcome to BE. I think you should find the Middle East forum easily enough but, if you need any help, just shout There's a good bunch of people in that section of the forum.

Interesting times in the Gulf at the moment - thankfully Qatar and UAE seem to be stable, don't they. Best of luck with the new job Mind you, Cyprus not a bad choice of country either.

Hi Lozroz

Welcome to BE.

As Baked bean has said, there is a Middle East forum, which you will find by clicking on the 'index forum' button on the pink bar above. Scroll down the list of countries until you see the 'Middle east' title. Double click on that and you're in. It is well worth popping in there and introducing yourself, or just jump right in and join in existing threads.
Don't forget to read any sticky threads on the forum - these are titled in red and are at the top of the first page when you enter the forum.

We also have a forum for Cyprus. Find this the same way, but look for the section entitled Europe and you will see Cyprus underneath, which you need to double click on.

The main thing is to jump in, join in and have fun.

Hi BB
Thanks for the welcome.
Malaisia might be a good choice too, except I wanted to get nearer to the UK eventually then maybe my friends could come and visit.
I lived in Jahore Bahru (Cant remember how to spelli t!) when I was a teenager for 2 years. Loved it.
I'm a sucker for monkeys and orangs.

Thanks Dread
Already been on and introduced myself. Some scary discussions going on there, but some of the people have been in the thick of it.
Hope to start chatting eventually.

Thank you too.
Think I've done all the intro bits. Love the humour going on in the ME forum.
This is a great site.
