Kid, if all your teenagers were forced to work flipping burgers part time whilst they study or straight out of school, then they'd have more of an appreciation for money, hard work and what is required to get a decent job. Cripes I had a part time job when I was 14 at the weekends and worked 2 jobs ...

I won't bore anybody with reposting what you've told us about you. But they do include: Your dad being a valued employee of Emirates Airline. You get free flights. You are the voice of Emirates Airline. Your parents live in Australia. They have a boat. You have a bike. You have a maid. You have a G...

Also BM and BB need to learn to tell the difference between bragging and imparting information in a discussion. I have never bragged about anything, more given info are part of ongoing discussions on various topics to reinforce a point. BM, brags about her BMW, her farm, her animals, all the gory de...

You know the sad thing is that I can't blame Kid for his attitude, it's his governments fault. This country is only just under 4 decades old and they have gone from zero to 100 in that space of time, whereas the countries we come from have centuries of experience and an extremely long learning curve...

So the Private sector get 3 days and the Public sector get NINE!!!

No wonder Emiratis won't work in the Private sector.

be on the cover of people magazine Done that :D I think you should live everyday as if it's your bucket list personally. So much to do, so little time. I think it might take a few lifetimes. Well then I have to correct myself and say that I only read the thing briefly. No covers, plenty of features...

Just wanted to say Happy Diwali (the festival of lights) to all our Indian members. I hope you have wonderful celebrations and a joyous time

Seriously not caring. Back to the foe list you go.

Is anyone here into the F1 at all? I've never really seen the appeal myself, but I have to say the concerts that go with it here are what I'm looking forward to. I don't care what anyone says, I reckon we're lucky to have so many varied and wonderful acts coming to the UAE on a regular basis. Britne...

Not reading your crap BB. Go write something constructive in one of the other threads. Ignoring from now on. Talk to the hand.

So be constructive them BB, who would you/have you seen that you've liked?

I'd really like to go and see Paul McCartney, but am not buying F1 tickets for that. Shame really.

just FYI :) they weren't actually looking to fish sharks :S they were just fishing and sharks came to them... in general I love most of creatures, I know some are harmful, but grr that is life.. if u look around ( and I mean around ;) ) u can see more harmful humans... Oh that's good to hear :D I t...

I wasn't counting the weekends. But hey ho. How does this place expect to keep business running when there are so many holidays?

That's 'bragging' luv NOT 'dragging' . LOL doesn't surprise me. BM too up herself to take a lowly cab.

I went to the F1 in Bahrain one year, never been so bored in my entire life.

Hi Ribena, I think there are very few lawyers who work like that here. Plus because the court order is in the UK, it would have to be done in the UK, I'm not sure the courts here would even touch it. In all honesty you'll find better answers to your questions by heading to http://www.expatwoman.com ...

If it is pronounced Divali,

then why is it spelt Diwali?

Don't know, but same as all German's pronounce W's as V's I guess.

well my 2 cents, getting a job these days in UAE sucks big time. been trying for 2 months now but still no luck. :shock: must be my wasta job experience kicking in, since a simple google search in my name shows it. but what bugs me the most is the fact that i really worked hard in my previous job, ...

Hi Rinena, Your friend had received misleading information. 1. She would NOT have a very strong case against he husband in the Dubai courts. Dubai courts could in fact award custody of the children to him (They will argue that a father with a job and a nanny is a better prospect than a mother on we...

Ah

Well I don't really know much about those things. It was big and boxie (not a limo) and chauffeur driven (uniform, gloves, the whole bit)...

LOOOL probably a Hummer by the sounds of it. Big and Boxy they definitely are. Pants off road though.

It's a tough one. Men who don't take care of their responsibilities are gutless wonders.

People are pretty irresponsible when it comes to sun exposure, hence the reason why skin cancer is dramatically on the rise. In the UAE BM, there is a massive problem with vitamin D deficiency, because of course many people avoid the sun, so doctors are dishing out Vit D supplements left, right and ...

Zonker the same has been reported in many media sources the world over. I was reading something the other day, where many Indian people had no clue what F1 even was or why it was coming to their country. It's in such bad taste to spend a fortune on such events, when so many of your people live impov...

But you can still use it also.
The red hair explains a few things though.

I do use the 'childrens' factor 50. I just spent 2 weeks in Oz, never saw any and trust me I looked!

I know what Kanelli is talking about, some of you haven't 'got it' - but let me say whoever has done that, it is way way way below the belt. You simply do not do that and it's bang out of order.

No, I'm not ginger. I said I have lots of red in my hair, more auburn. That does not = ginger.

Anyway, sitting baking in the sun isn't healthy, it's one of the things that will age you fastest so why bother.

Who cares about your flippin' meet up BM - apart from those who went - no one.

It has to do because someone is imparting info which hasn't been expressed on the forum, so it's someone that either knows kanelli or knows off deets about her. So to then go and put them on the forum is bang out of order!

No she stated somewhere she was an Arab living in Canada. I think the issue is there's a difference in people feeling superior in their own country and those who would deliberately get others into trouble. As someone already stated the legal system here isn't fair by any stretch of the imagination. ...
