7 Years

September 29, 2009

Clint and I celebrated our 7 year wedding anniversary yesterday. As well as going out to dinner I got a lovely bouquet of flowers (they are truly spectacular) complete with a tube of cream… just incase I am suffering from the 7 year itch!


Clints legal!!!

September 23, 2008

After getting the ball rolling in June, Clint is finally a resident of the U.A.E. It has been a frustrating process especially watching people arrive and get their residency after only a week or two (which is how long it is meant to take). 

Being a resident means we can now buy cars and more importantly Clint can drive again- you can drive as a visitor or as a resident but while you are in no-mans land awaiting residency (as Clint has been since June) it is illegal to drive. On the positive side, I have had to do all the driving and can now find my way around the island and surrounding area quite well- which means I can get to all the big shopping malls plus find my way home if I get lost or miss a turn (all the important things really).
