Hey All,

Happy New Year.

I went away for New Year, and I have to say whenever I go out of the UAE, I'm starting to dread coming back everytime. Everywhere else feels like normality compared to Dubai, the shine is definately coming off. Just getting into the airport, people here can act like animals, there's zero consideration for anyone else. Plus you really notice that the place smells, of people and smoke, it really is foul.

Maybe the time is right to start looking for new places to live and work.

Just venting.

Can I have your job and villa?


Welcome back. It'll be better in a few days

Nothing worth than coming back anyplace from holidays.

Sure if you want to live with my folks and the dog and kitty.

Actually the job is one thing I'm considering changing. I miss being freelance and being my own boss.

Welcome back chocs and Happy New Year

Cheer up too

hey chocs ,
happy new year, and welcome to the club.
the starting to dislike dubai club

welcome back, and good luck for your new place

just before you go, make sure you join us for paintball

Maybe your just feeling a bit low? Perhaps missing the peeps you left behind? Whatever it is, for sure it will pass. Anyway try looking at the little brighter side, its still feels safe here somehow, tax free, the never ending sale?

Hehe, the brighter side of women feeling unsafe in taxis, indirect taxes and the never-ending fake sales with prices higher than in the same stores in the West?

Sorry Im might be missing out something, dunno anyone who feels unsafe in taxi around here, are we talking about Dubai Transport taxi? And I really beg to disagree about your claim on the fake sale prices, it still quite far from western prices! Have you checked out the sale in MOE lately?

You keep the folks, job and kitty. Dog and villa ok.

I dunno how long you been here, but it is a place that you get bored from quick!! For several reasons & one thing Dubai is just copying other countries and it's not that OrIGinaL!!!!! The same stuff goin over & over again bores ya even more! We are humans & we love the change!

I have been here for 15 years and I am not bored, always found plenty to do.

yeah i agree with sage and onion dude

there is plenty to do like the beach, football, basetball, joining a club of some sort, going to the desert......loads

Oh really

Xibit, Southwark?! PLease darling I come from a posher place than that!

Been here three and a half years now. Think my main issue is I feel chanined to work at the moment, so no time for a life whatsoever. I work to live, not live to work.

well i just moved here..3 weeks back...so i cant complain.........yet

chocs....looking for a job?....i need to hire a tele-sales person ....anyone interested?

i have to be honest...its probably..boring...but it pays....good too...but i have yet to come across someone who has always...as a child...aspired to be a telemarketer!

Hehehe, Thanks dude, but no. Afraid I have my sights on something a little higher.
