We are just about to move into a villa in Jumeirah 2 and have bought a gas cooker which we will need a gas cylinder for – how do I get one delivered?

Either ask a neighbour for a number or go outside to where the gas cylinder is connected (usually on the outside wall to the kitchen or garage) as many times there are stickers with telephone numbers of gas delivery companies or if they have all been cleaned off and you can’t get a number from a neighbour then stand outside or drive around the area near your villa and hail a gas delivery van down as they are always doing the rounds.
