I did warn you that I will not be getting to post that often these days.
After 6 years in Dubai I have forgotten how inconvenient it can be to actually have to go to work every day.
However the construction workers outside my villa ensure that I always get up on time but banging away at 7.00am every morning.
If you’re reading this blog Mr Construction Worker I do that you.
Two requests though.
1) Please don’t continue to do it on a Friday. That’s my rest day.
2) If you persist in using my villa wall as a public lavatory I will cut it off ok.
From pissing work men to Brits Abroad – a comprehensive guide to where Britons live around the world.
55,000 ex-pats in the United Arab Emirates make it the most popular Middle East location – 13th overall in the world.
26,000 live in Saudi Arabia – but only 142 pensioners. Most Brits are temporary oil workers.
3,400 pensioners in Yemen is the largest cluster of retired British citizens in the region.
What on earth are over three thousand British pensioners doing in Yemen for heavens sake?
Answers on a postcard please.

The 3,400 pensioners in Yemen will doubtless be British passport holders of Yemeni origin who left Yemen in the 50s, mainly to work in steelworks in the North of England. I expect they've now retired and are back home enjoying a very decent standard of living thanks to their hard earned hard currency pensions.
well you learn something new every day!
Thanks for that....
Construction workers seem to be rude in every country, lol.
