Thanks guys,
I must admit I have been looking at Bahrain.
I'm tempted to have a flying visit and spend maybe three days in Qatar and three in Bahrain.
We thought that with two incomes we could maybe afford a nicely furnished high-end appartment/flat. Especially if we can rent our flat in the UK.
We need to look in to and think seriously about the marriage issue and possibly seek advice out there.

Thanks again, you are all a great help.
