i have often thought about packing up and leaving qatar at times, but then every country i have lived in i have thought about packing up and leaving! We all complain about where we live- i mean dont get me started on england where i come from! People are entitled to there own opinion! The whole pork thing, yes i admit i have giggled over it, but i get your point it is a bit strong to keep going on and on about it like has been done! In reference to the dogs and cats too, we all come from different cultures here and are all use to things in different ways!! if people learnt to not take offence quickly here, that would be good!
i have never heard of making fun of the way arabs dress thou? where did that come from? The weatern attitude mmmm im sorry but i do agree with that one! Not all the western people out here, but i have picked up on this one too, its not the way people dress its the way people carry themselves and sadly out here the westerns do sometimes carry themselves that way- but then it tends to be the ones covered in diamonds! But then the arabs do carry themselves that way too, how many of us have been pushed in front of in queues by other people? Come on were all the same on here human with our own faults, no one is perfect lets just all learn to live together! lets not point fingers as thats where hate and discrminiation breeds from! and why is everyone here...for money thats why everyone works so we can live! yes i complain but then would have to go back to the uk and pay 40% tax-does that make me greedy! Yes! but then thats life and how else are we to survive? I dont pay tax here so that makes it worth it! I can handel the bad points here and there are many good points too. Lets just accept the differences we have were all human and unique in our own quirky ways!

Remember this motto to live by:
"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving
safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in
sideways, chocolate in one hand martini in the other screaming oh what a ride"
