Highly Qualified Curtain Hangers

John and myself have been busy getting apartments sorted for new members of the company working in this country. We have cleaned apartments and villas and have now started hanging curtains. This has involved hanging rails, driving to Abu Dhabi to get the curtains to find that the Ikea people haven't ordered the curtains in the quantities we need. So we raided the stock on the shelves. we have 46 pairs so far and will need at least that again to get them all hung. I made a simple error writing dollars rather dirhams on the company cheque. A bit fuss with them not willing to accept the change so the credit card now has more on it than expected. SO finally have the stock we drive the 140 kms home to start hanging curtains. So we iron them , measure up, hem and hang.... crikey its lucky we are highly qualified educationalists or we would struggle with this.
