hey sorry about that
Elphaba I meant no offence, crossmyhearthopetodie.
I was trying to interject humour in the middle of the seriousness - it's a bad habit
if I were to add something:
1) I guess a separate thread for consulate locations of the major represented demographics
2) One for food - I understand tastes are varied, but a brief price range & choice spots for the usual culinary suspects would be useful for those reading
3) Something covering telecom / internet costs - everytime I have guests coming in they ask me about what & how fast it takes to get connected (I promise not to post my gripes about Etisalat's price gouging vis a vis Al Shamil

)
hope that helps
