Since the thread is here a response.
6,000 Dirhams is approx £1,000 at today's rate of around 6 to the GPB. In the past year it has been as high as 7 but as low as 5. At present the AED is fixed to the US$ so as the dollar fluctuates the Pound and the Euro appear to fluctuate locally.
Now if you have free accommodation and not too high expectations of saving or a riotous lifestyle, you could probably get by. But it's not a great amount. I'm a boring old f**t of a consultant - not CC. Let's see what they say over there.....
Cheers
