Well, well it took mere 168 hours to get a fridge. And that is not counting Friday - the day of rest. I guess we can be happy that it was an appliance which requires only pluging in and not actual installation, because that would surely further affect the speed of the process...
In all fairness, the fridge was delivered yesterday. Safe lifting practices were not followed, but that is not much of a surprise. Our mold infested fridge was taken away, hopefully never to be seen again. I do hope they throw it away and not resell it to some poor sucker.
So, now we are back to normal food! ;)
Until the electricity bill is NOT paid again...

Glad you enjoyed it!
Hiya, just wondering if you can point me in the right direction; i've been living in Tripoli now over 2 years and have never meet other expats. so any help is highly valued.
Just found your blog and have found it very interesting and highly amusing x
Hi NellyNoo,
The safest bet is your company or your husbands company, thats how the contact are initially made. There are various clubs and gathering points as well. You could approach your embassy, they usually organize parties as well. If that doesnt work out, you can always meet expats in shops etc. Which business are you in?
Hiya, my husband's Libyan so not out here for work, so through a companies' not an option. Never thought about trying an embassy.
Oh and if you thought Tripoli's bad for stareing don't go to Benghazi they stare holes through you lmao
Hahaha!!! I must be very lucky then to live in Tripoli!
Just remembered, there are several language schools where expats go as well, such as Italian institute. But then you have to learn Italian...
Hiya i live in Tripoli, Ras Hasan i think it's called?!
My in-laws are from Benghazi so have to visit there more often than i'd like lol I'm known as the 'English' woman to the majority of his family.
My Arabic is terrible so i'm sure the majority of them talk to me to prove their (lack of) English skills lmao
