The Best Laid Plans … – Doha Doings
https://dohadoings.wordpress.com/2014/07/03/the-best-laid-plans
Adventures in Doha and beyond …. The Best Laid Plans …. July 3, 2014. July 3, 2014. Further investigation revealed wardrobes full of clothes, and food in the fridge and kitchen cupboards. This was no squatter – someone had moved in to our place! Our real estate agent, Carol, assured us it was a mistake – she spoke with the owner who confirmed we were the tenants. We checked with the concierge, who had us on record as the tenants. I was sure it was a mix-up and would soon be sorted. July 3, 2014 at 2:38 pm.

Adventures in Doha and beyond …. Have Wheels Will Travel. August 21, 2014. August 21, 2014. I can’t believe it’s been almost a month since my last blog post! I have a bit of catching up to do! This week’s big news is that we have bought a car. It’s a Volvo (no hat jokes please! S40, 2007 model, for those who like details. Here are some photos:. I only say all that so you will appreciate how incredibly brave and skilled I am in actually driving here! 5 thoughts on “ Have Wheels Will Travel. You are commen...

Settling in – Doha Doings
https://dohadoings.wordpress.com/2014/06/28/settling-in
Adventures in Doha and beyond …. June 28, 2014. I must be getting used to this place. I went outside a few days ago, it was a mere 40 C (104 F) and I actually thought “It’s not too bad today”! The true test however, will be when I can stand at the curb and automatically look in the right direction for the traffic. For now I’m at the confused stage – no longer quite sure which side of the road they drive on here, or at home! The big news of the week is that we have found an apartment! Here are some photos...

Desert Storm – Doha Doings
https://dohadoings.wordpress.com/2014/07/15/desert-storm
Adventures in Doha and beyond …. July 15, 2014. July 15, 2014. Today it started to clear and now the view is pretty much back to normal. This is the first time we have experienced such a thick blanket, but I believe it is not unusual. There is almost always a layer of dust in the atmosphere, which is a normal part of life, but this was something else, and I was very glad to be able to spend the day indoors. 3 thoughts on “ Desert Storm.

Roses in the Desert – Doha Doings
https://dohadoings.wordpress.com/2015/04/11/roses-in-the-desert
Adventures in Doha and beyond …. Roses in the Desert. April 11, 2015. April 11, 2015. Today we visited a fascinating project in the middle of the Qatar desert. It is a flower and vegetable production facility called Roza Hassad, which held an open day today. It is about 30km west of Doha, which makes it about 1/3 of the way across the country, and well and truly in the desert. We were treated to a guided tour led by the charming Jean-Pierre Moreau, the general manager of the facility. With his deligh...
