Lovely Novita is to Leave Qatar..:(

Happy Happy
By Happy Happy

Our novita77 is leaving Qatar, maybe will quit QL too. Needless to say, she's one of the earliest QL members, she's been an enormous help to many people on QL, and surely outside, she's managed to draw a large number of QLers, through successfully maintaining her QL Group "Mums in Doha". She's been updating us with lots of news and useful information on Qatar happenings, but.....who's going to report road accidents after you're gone??!

Let's all greet her and wish her all the best wherever she goes with her family..:)

You'll be missed!

and the reason is not our business...

Novita,I never had the good fortune to meet you in person. But judging by your posts I think U are a gr8 person. You must have been a moudir of MMM. This one time I remember I really vexed you by posting a bad picture of some "Egyptian mummies over a cup of coffee" which also happened to be the name of your thread. So Sorry if I have spoiled your thread and offended some real Egyptian mummies! I didn't really mean to offend anybody! You know I never think too much about what I say or what I do. Sometimes things I do or say turns out to be in bad taste/humor. But I hope you have forgotten that and do not hold any grudge against edifis.

-Regards

@Flanostu & tcom : Cant afford to keep you ...and I have to do my own houseworks :(

@UKeng : No return hopefully, except for hols. Or you and your clans can visit us in north east of England.

@Mandi : See you on the 20th.

@Smoke : Never see such as vain cat like you with the photos.

Will have a peek on QL now and again to say hello to everyone. Some of you become good friends outside QL so we still can keep in touch through facebook, email and other things :)
