Thank you so much to everyone who has managed to help with my questions! Really grateful! Last few to go...
The british school provide some private music tuition but not in flute which my eldest daughter is learning at school, are there any flautists out there who teach privately? Also piano too?
Off the cuff... is there an underground Christmas tree trade lol?!
Lastly, and this one is worrying me, we have a family dog that we just cannot leave behind, I have looked into it thoroughly and though she does have health problems she is "disease free" but has anyone got their dog here and things gone wrong at the airport? Its really worrying me.
I think that might actually be it! Hubby is going to be looking round some compounds over the next few days so will keep you updated as to where we will be moving to, looks like it could well be Riyadh village, hope it's nice lol x

I'm sure someone will be able to help you out with lessons - perhaps even send a message to other schools as well.

You can get EVERYTHING here you will those kinds of things out once you get out here and start asking around face to face.

I haven't heard of any problems with pets. Only that it takes a while. I only know of pets coming in from South Africa and they had a long quarantine wait on both sides. I do remember a friend taking her dogs UK to Singapore and they had no qaurantine UK side so maybe is the same here and you will only get it KSA. But I would say so long as there are no contageous diseases you should be good to go

Also I had heard Eid was busy being emptied with people going home etc. Perhaps you might find a place there.

Hi abigaililu, you may also try to post an advert in the classes section of Riyadh classifieds. It may help.
