re Schools
Pumpkin, a Kent College will open in September 2015 at Meydan City, but as for the rest, we could not approach schools until we knew where our housing was to be located. As this only became clear last month, and as DCS99 says, this is a tad on the late side.
My better half intends to work while out here, so the "need to know" was paramount, and then the Meydan ultimatum was issued. Hmmm, I smell a film title. Perhaps with my wife playing the part of the Hanging Judge......
