what is the seating capacity of the C1, C2, X25 bus? what about the other buses? 50 or possibly more right? so why the heck does rta allow only 12 women to board each bus?!!! why not make it equal?!! then women like me wouldn't end up waiting for 2 freakin hours to get on a bus when we can spend it...

Last I checked it was 120. But that was last year. If you have the Entertainment book, its one for one.

Eating crabs in restaurants can be messy. Unless its fine dining style. I prefer to eat them at home. But I dont enjoy cooking.

Is that a crime too??? doll are u british by any chance ;) You dont need to be a British (or any national for this matter)...

I am not an environmentalist and this is not my birth country. But Dubai is a clean city. You dont see rubbish by the road side - yet! Its frustrating to see inconsiderate people (who drives an expensive car) throwing rubbish out of their car. Why doesnt she throw rubbish in her own car, in her own ...

Happy New Year everyone - Peace

Try simmering the crabs in some cooking wine, handful of herbs (whatever you prefer. I like sage), some salt and pepper and some chopped garlic. Sort of like cooking cray, but don't ...

Why?

Getting sick.
Nursing the hangover the next day.
Abusing the body / health.

Why do it? Why is moderation not good enough?

I blasted a co-worker in Saudi who was always throwing his litter out of the window. He explained it in true Saudi style: "By doing this, I am creating a job for the man who has to come and pick it up! If I did not throw out my rubbish, he would starve!" It is still an eyesore although it...

Great! So I have just taken extra leave with the possibility of not coinciding with the public holiday !!

Urgh !!

Sorry I missed the fine print at the bottom that says: Note Muslim festivals are timed according to local sightings of various phases of the moon and the dates given above are approximations. During the lunar month of Ramadan that precedes Eid al-Fitr, Muslims fast during the day and feast at night ...

Touche

Where can I find a good English scone in this city?

Last year (2007) analysts already forecasted 130-ish mark. It should come down to sub 100. So they said.

Remember when it hit 40 and we think it was dead expensive? !!!!

She looked Arabic, fair skinned, doesnt wear an abaya, totally at ease driving the turbo car - one would assume she has driven the car more than once. You mean that is arnie's girlfriend/wife??

I am officially hopeless (as Concord described) in quoting - or rather teaching others how to quote

OPEC will intervine

A good case to fight as I am sure there were precedents like this.
