Cheers,

Peter

Hi Peter,

You can also have a look at the housing in Doha section and post an advert there.

Saw your blog. Atkins consulting engineers at this stage but still considering PSTech, Parsons Brinkerhoff and QPM.
How about you? I should mobilise in about two to three weeks.

Tell me about it. Did you have telephonic/Skype interviews? Lived in the Middle East before?

yes - 2 skype interviews......haven't been in the middle east since '94, used to live in Sharjah. Never worked there but certainly looking forward to it. Watching lots of youtube vids about Doha in the meantime.
