Can anyone tell me what time this is on tomorrow - I have had a look at their website but it just confirms the date and not the time. Looking for all things Christmassy after spending the run up to Christmas in Saudi for the last 2 years where even the tinsel gets taken off the shelves! :-)

Thanks in advance
Ellie

In Qatar it is 'Christian Eid'...and you are allowed to go to a kaneesa or buy a Eid tree or light a candle!

Thanks for the info guys and UkEngQatar - apologies for my descriptive slip up ;-), lol - I do wonder what people must think of those 'festive' trees in the home centre windows though! :-)

Eeeeeee - It's nearly Christmas! :-)

Also the correct term is Festive Fair as Christmas is not officially celebrated here!
