Hi Elphaba,
Thanks for your help. It is much appreciated.
Could I trouble you again for some more advice?
I was offered 13k per month by motivate publishing, which I have been told by yourself and serveral others, is a low wage.
I'm due to talk with my employer next week about possibly increasing this figure.
What would be a good total package to aim for? 15k-20k?
I don't want to appear greedy, but I would like to be able to enjoy living in Dubai and all it has to offer.

Thanks for your help in advance.
