eeeeek, kenny rodgers is CRAP here. well it was when i went. they make you stand up and order your food at the window, then they put it together, and make you sit down before they serve it- how does that make any sense?!

and the music..

BobbieMasoner

definately a bonus in any public relations, sales or creative field.

I think knowing Hindi/Urdu is much more beneficial in the construction buisness than Arabic... In the Medical field Arabic is probably helpful if your going to be dealing with Arab patients, but i dont see it as essential as in the fields that Bobbie mentioned although not ESSENTIAL (which i didn't...

AUS apparently has a kick ASS fine-arts course- you can get your BA in painting, printing or sculpture - something very hard to find in the gulf. AUS does seem to have higher standards. Maybe AUD's are too low? AUD is central though, and there seems to be a good blend of people- this is all an outsi...

Hell, maybe most people are just scared of coming to a new unfamiliar place and need some comfort in the familiar. Although i'm not local, i was born here, and lived here almost all my life and have known p...

if you'd like i'll give you my highschool arabic teachers number- Mozna is amazing and such a funny wee thing. She's originally palestinian but grew up in Egypt- very familiar with 'proper' arabic as well as the local slang.

let me know if you're interested- she'll be back from her vacation soon

BobbieMasoner

sly, i'm pretty sure you can just go to the police, tell them that you've been taking lessons from a private teacher,then take your test? may have to sit through a lecture, eye test and stuff, then the roads. give it a try, good luck

PS. don't go to belhasa for any reason- they're a rip off.

BobbieMasoner

i have no idea waht phone you're talking about, or how much it usually is- but Axiom usually has the best deals

BobbieMasoner

wow HP. think you might need to tame your views, or you won't be too highly regarded around these parts.

You are on a Dubai forum- maybe a little respect for Dubai?

BobbieMasoner

hope everyone else is ok.

BobbieMasoner

BobbieMasoner

BobbieMasoner
