Oh Happy Days!

Posted 13-10-09 at 02:24 PM by mannipatch

Well I must be mad - but I oh so miss doing nails!!! Can't wait to get started over here and will be doing just that when I return on the 30th December.
Going to visit Dubai now on the 21st of October for a few days before I return home to Beautiful Northern Ireland on the 27th - am quite looking forward to seeing some rain, wearing make-up without it sliding off my face and running into my eyes - and sweating all the time!
Yes I know, I know!
Have done loads since I came here...

Unhappy in Saudi

Posted 27-08-09 at 12:49 PM by mannipatch

My horrible hubby and I have just had our first row since arriving here and this is where there is a major difference. I would usually take off in a hump in my car and cool off at my family or mates or go shopping (getting payback with his credit card tee, hee). But no I am confined to camp, not being able to drive or leave on my own. And my is he laying down the law to me. Do you want to go out or are you going to sit there and huff all day, I will count to 3 and then I am going for a couple of...

Happy in Saudi!

So I am here at last! And was it worth the wait - absolutely! I love it - but of course I am only here 2 weeks so all is new and exciting. Our villa is huge and lovely, our neighbours and the rest of the people on the compound are also. There is loads to do for me and it is not at all what I expected. I don't find the Abaya a problem at all. I only have to wear when outside the compounds. So when I am going shopping with my hubby or for a drive or to the beach with the other wives I just pop on...

Arrivals

Posted 14-12-08 at 01:43 AM by mannipatch

Just got a call from my husband and son to say that they have arrived in Ryadh, they are waiting on the connection to Dammam. They are tired and overwrought because they did not know if they would get through immigration because of BMI. **** they are. They are not educated in visa's and working visa's. When I pointed out to the representative this morning - the other Arabic entry in their passports - and said to her that is their working visa., the other stamp is a multiple entry and exit visa for...

Alone again 1

Posted 13-12-08 at 06:19 PM by mannipatch

So we got to the Airport early yesterday morning and the flight from Belfast to Heathrow was cancelled - as there is only one flight per day from Heathrow to Saudi they would not have made their connection flight. Was pleased that for once we knew about it before they actually got on the plane, failing that they would have had to sleep round Heathrow all night. I had not slept all night, don't know why, just couldn't get calm. Kept holding on to my hubby, not like me at all so it must be Christmas...
