Networking in Doha
By Jason Paul •
Hi all
well been here in Doha 3 weeks and everything seems to be going well although the company i work for is rather small and not many english speakers so i thought i would give this post a try
im looking to make new m8s with people here in Doha pref british, males and around my own age (30) to meet up coffee food shisha etc there is only so much tv a dude can watch
have varied interest, easy going laid back lad
if there is anyone in this similar situation please do get in touch
cheers

True, maybe arrange to meet in the pub after Ramadam and make sure you aint got no axe murderers in your midst! Its a very grey day here in UK and the leaves are falling already... a sign of whats to come me thinks! Have a good week. : )
life will be re-started after Ramadan..can't wait for the openning of Irish Pub! :)
It will be after Ramadan.
my thoughts exactly would be interested to know more about your meets though,
Not a good idea to invite anyone so soon.
We di have regular meet ups, like Shisha, coffee, Beach etc.Welcome to QL
Hey Mercia sounds a good idea although would arrange a neutral meeting place before I accept strangers to my home, yeah don't know any1 @ the base but only few weeks till I'm back in Dubai ! (I think it is only as I can't have it, I crave it more..!)
Hope your having a pleasant Friday
Thats the spirit Jason, you should organise a party and get the newbies round for a beer. It is unfortunate there is no pork shop in Doha, so unless you know anyone at the base... girls I used to work with hooked up with some amercians and had bacon anytime they wanted! So I guess you will be waiting for your trip to Dubai. It will be so worth it.

Thanks. I arrive end of August so I believe I miss most of Ramadan. Thanks for the tips :-)
Yhm.
yes mercia well stocked up for ramadan and have a busy work load mainly from the house with a few evening shifts in the office so im hoping it will be ok,Nikki it is hot hear compared to the UK but is bearable thanks to air con, in terms of things to do the malls and the malls are great the museum of islamic art is also very much worth a visit, so your coming in August then? please read up on Ramadan as this is a significant time in the muslim calender and thus must be treated with respect, I have been here a month now, and I felt what you would be feeling now, the people here are great to get on with and im sure you will enjoy your time here, good luck with the transition and with your new job
Hey! I'm moving to Doha alone next month so will be looking to meet people if you want to meet up for a drink or something? Any advice for somebody just moving? Nikki
Get yourself down to the Sheraton this evening, the Harp and you will meet plently of Brits. Hope you have stocked up your booze before Ramadan!! There is the rugby club as well were you will meet like minded males.
