On the inside however they are majestic.

When they're finished they will have racing stripes of different colours put on them.

I dont believe they will revalue the Dirham just because the dollar is weak against other currencies at the moment. That has been the main impetus to date for discussions regarding the revaluation of the dirham. It's in Gulf News once a week. Currently with a weak dollar, exchange againt other curr...

Has anyone seen my liver today? I think I left it at the Marriot.

Hi Kash,

You're going to be waiting a long time or find yourself back in London very quickly, as extra-marital relationships are illegal in Sharjah.

My advice would be to work on the style. 10 points for being direct though!

The people working here as labourers should feel lucky. In the US, they'd be whipped off to Guantanimo and never get a hint of freedom again.

for all the advice.. how is it done here then? The same way it's done everywhere. The women here aren't another species to the one's everywhere else, and they don't throw themselves at a guy who says "Hi I'm from England, who wants to do me?" especially one living in Sharjah. (No offence ...

What offer?

Anyway, if you're getting desperate, there's Sharjah guy at the top of this page.

Should have taken Scarlet up on her offer last night! Hahaha!! :shock: What offer? Anyway, if you're getting desperate, there's Sharjah guy at the top of this page. Nice bumping into u guys the other night by the way :wink: Yeah you too. Coincidence we were only talking about your joint the other n...

Wow, you know what I hate to say it, but some of you guys are unbelievable! I'm not sure why you would say that. It's one thing to lobby in support of migrant workers in another country, it's another if there is an ulterior motive. It's no secret that DP World have launched their bid to buy some US...

Call me strange, but I will always try and see the good in people first. Call me strange, but I think people should get their own house in order first before criticising others. Thanks for labelling me a conspiracy theorist too. I did go out of my way to point out specific real-world actual example...

I forget who above made mention of Walmart and other stores. I wonder whether this person knows this from independent facts but from the propest by those horrible Americans. I have been to many factories in China and Mexico that produce items for Walmart and many other US countries. 100% US owned c...

How do I get to 1000 posts?

US Dollars or Fleuros?

I have to ask because it makes a big difference to the answer.

Also what field of work are you in?

Your wife might have a good chance of finding work depending on how skilled she is.

Guys, time to finalise. Date - This Thursday Venue - DK to pm his 'plan' Attire - Tuxedos were discussed, we need to look flash. Add your name to the list > Ian > Wafaey the Lobster Gobbler > Constantine > Dubai Knight ... I was too hungover on saturday to remember who else was in. Don't forget the ...

Ian, did you just happen to stop by? Was it on a tour guide? Where you investigating something? Confirming something? or just decided out of the blue to visit these countries and their factories? I was assessing suitable manufacturers in China for the production of consumer electronics devices and ...

I think these protests are great. It's good to see people taking an interest in what's happening across the globe and raising awareness. I certainly have no objection to people protesting in something they believe in or want to take a strong stance on. Bad things happen because people don't take a ...

Edit: I need to read. Um... odd problem. You could try tabbing to the button and then pressing the space bar.

Anyway I like blind-dates if anyone wishes to know. (probably get booted now for saying the "d" word).

Dates are pretty popular, they're a staple of the Arab diet.

u are a one jealous *censored*. I'm a bit confused as to what I am supposed to be jealous of. The people here who aren't from Dubai do keep it mostly to Dubai. Apart from your posts bashing Dubai you haven't contributed anything. This is NOT a dating forum or a problem solving forum. The Romance se...

Yes but you made up the whole story, so of course you were going to get the replies you did. As said previously, you can't even hack criticism let al...

Spring Chicken? Hardly.

Life begins at 50 they say.

33 and life is pretty much over :lol: :lol: There was a whole thread on ages and how old everyone is but did a quick search and couldn't find it. It was deleted so as not to constitute a breach of national security. Or something. [Hijack] Are you going to the BNO this thursday? if so please respond...

No, I think we meet up the next day to discuss our shenanigans over brunch if people are interested.

have done the reseach on the stretch caddillac limo...for one hour it will cost us 500 dirhams for 3 hours 1000 dirhams...need to see if you guys are ok with this idea...DK and me were talking yesterday...and seemed to find it an interesting way to travel...perhaps for an hour...any thoughts? Ouch!...

For those of you "lurkers" bothering our Scarlet, BEWARE, she is an innocent child, and I (being the old woman of the group), will WHOP SOME MAJOR A$S if you bother her, or any of the other ladies!!! Be very, very afraid!!! :twisted: I PM her all the time but she never responds.... :oops:...

Crap, can't make it. No permisson and besides, not old enough to drink (on the odd chance there might be drinking involved). Next time... Are you serious? There won't be any debates about vicarious liability! Also Dale, people need to respond on their own behalf, not roped into it by anyone else. T...

I wish there was an easy answer to your question. In Dubai, salaries for the same position can fluctuate by as much as (and more) than 10,000 dh a month. It depends on a lot of factors (not all I agree with, but that's the way it is). (1) Experience (2) Nationality (3) What passport you hold (4) Whe...
