Thanks super cool. All very reassuring words. Because fo my love for the region i studied the unification of the UAE in my university degree. The plan initially was for qatar to be a partog the union wasnt it? I'm glad to hear there is mutual respect.

I've always been pleasantly surprised how my tattoo has been received in Abu dhabi, more with interest than disapproval. Good to hear i can expect the same in Doha.

I'm pretty sure the pace of change wont be a problem for me. I've always been so impressed with the way in which abu dhabi has developed itself, from the very short time i have spent in doha it seems they are trying to reach a similar objective.

When I came to doha for my interview i spent some time in souq waqif. The temperature was very pleasant so was fortunate enough to have a very enjoyable evening there...i'm looking forward to spending more time there when weather permits!

I certainly seem to have had a very warm welcome on QL so far, and for that thanks to everyone so far. If one of the 'meets' is going to happen in may i'll make sure i'm there to thank you all in person.
