what do you thing are the most things that new expats needs do know ones they land in ? what are the country obligations in "term of awareness" toward expats ? I don't behave any differently in Dubai than I do in any other country I visit. If you are respectable then you shouldn't have a ...

BM has had a couple of glasses of wine tonight and is in a reflective mood :drunken: Alcohol does not depress me at all but I've been talking to a friend tonight about a lucky escape. It got me thinking. :idea: If you had forewarning that you were going to die, and you were guaranteed to be told the...

How about if I just asked :"How did I do?" Depending on who I asked, the answers should be interesting Yes indeed Zonker! You had BM's head spinning with that lot! Or was it last night's Chardonnay? I think if I was with you, Zonker, and my time was up, I'd ask if I could have a pint of w...

No it was pea and ham soup.

Must try harder next time. (and remember to use 'quotes' and references.)

What an arrogrant piece of work you are shafique.

With cheaper flights and packages, you're bound to get 'undesirables' or the bucket and spade brigade, who would be better suited to Spain or somewhere like that. I mean 7 or 8 years ago, you really didn't have the problems that you see reported virtually every week. The flights are shootimg up lat...

He had to go back to 2002 to find it LOL!

Netanyahu is a strong leader. he has my utmost respect. he is doing what he thinks is best for his country.
Big up the Israelis.

They probably learnt to drive on their private estates EH. Beth can drive and she's only 15, we have 100 acres that she can practice on. She wouldn't be allowed on the public highway though! It's a daft law, even the citizens of Saudi would like it changed. I can't imagine not being able to jump in ...

Observation Shaf, not criticism.

Nah, it was definitely criticism from me.

My last question wouldn't be what goes on in elavators Zonker, but I'd still like to know and I'd like to know how you know too! So many questions, so little time! Anyways, Beth had a maths exam yesterday and came home with a question. Hopefully it won't be her last one. Her question to me was, 'wha...

TV: tunnel vision
Narrowness of viewpoint resulting from concentration on a single idea, opinion, etc., to the exclusion of others.

at least one kitten had an elastic band tied around its tail so that it would eventually fall off That doesn't hurt. That's the way to remove animals tails. It cuts the circulation off and the tail withers and falls off. That's what farmers do to lambs tails all the time. I have a hand held device ...

Netanyahu is a strong leader. he has my utmost respect. he is doing what he thinks is best for his country. . agree :D , yesterday I was in a chat with old uncles 70+ and some others, was talking about everything in the region, and when Israel name came over, told them if I am Israeli what a better...

Well I suppose this is an improvement on you two trauling the internet looking for pictures of white women.
It seems the flavour of the week is trauling the internet looking for stories about Israelis.

What can we expect next week? Pictures of blonde Jewish women?

How very sad.

There's your infatuation with cucumbers again munchkin!

You muslim men should get out more!

Zonker! That's the second time this week I've read on this forum that they don't/didn't know, they just saw it at the movies LOL Hollywood has a lot to answer for. Silly Old Shafique claims only to know a dodgy expression as he heard it on a movie and now I read that you have only heard about dodgy ...

Tourettes! Boys are three to four times more likely to have it than girls Symptoms include grunting hitting or biting yourself making obscene gestures (copropraxia) swearing or saying obscene words (coprolalia) repeating words/phrases Some people also have trouble sleeping and feel anxious or depres...

Antisemitism...is so obscene

desertdudeshj wrote:Yes linking an article published in an Israeli newpaper written by Israelis is so antisemitic



Like I said, same old rethoric equals to lame.

Funny how silly old Shafique comes out with the same shite all the time isn't it munchkin....soooo predictable....yawn!

I think he's having a poor day munchkin

Don't worry! You've always got Aunty BM

Sorry I don't care much for fugly. Munchkin! I see you have been learning a new word! Isn't that a bit shallow? Disregarding BM because she is cosmetically challenged :cry: Sorry to disappoint munchkin, but at the last time of telling BM was a very attractive woman :D Or so the Pakistani taxi drive...

When Netty addressed the US Congress I had said that he was painting Israel into a corner and this article confirms that

Well the US Congress seemed to like him Bora! Remind me again, who many standing ovations did Netty get?

Hell's bells Zonker That's all a bit much for a simpleton like BM.

Someone pour me a drink

Please don't speak about locals as a whole as if you're our God (a3uthubilla) or something - been trying really hard to stay out of this conversation; but you're just making us look worse and worse and worse... Don't worry Burshra, Kid only makes himself look stupid - on virtually every occasion. W...

At least the muttley got away.

Wake up Chocs! it's a non story! The only reason DDS posted it was as another dig at the Israelis. There's a theme going on.

I saw there are 8 pages of comments but based on the title and some of the posters...why bother reading it. I "know" what it says :P In a nutshell, Ambassador, we're all horrid, and getting more horrid by the day, except for Shafique who diverts his eyes from all things horrid and Kanelli...
