Well I just wonder what sort of 'men' these are? If they behave this way in front of their children in public, attacking complete strangers, what on earth do they do at home when someone ticks them off? Makes you wonder. I have no doubt that one day they'll pick on the wrong person, people like that...

Bethsmum , Yes it does. Quite simply if a person is being honest, then they have no issues leaving phones about or laptops open, giving over passwords etc. If someone has something to hide, they never let their phone out their sight.

Not a bad area, just bear in mind these areas are building sites and will be for a good while yet, that's the only problem. But within easy reach of all the main facilities that you might need.

You can render someone unconscious with a blow to the side of the neck if you hit the cartoid artery disrupting the blood flow to the brain. There are indeed ways to knock someone out with a blow to the back of the head/neck, which is why these moves are illegal in boxing matches and martial arts. H...

What am I? Bleedin' Scotch mist? I bet Charles is seething and hoping she'll resign soon. Personally I hope it skips him and they move to Prince William instead.

LOL it makes perfect sense to my weird brain. You know what I mean.

The also call it vertical flex - it's amazing and what the girls do in competition is stunning, true athletes.

I think they're getting confused with passport expiry. However, will you be back before your visa expires? If so, you'll be ok.

Chocoholic

I didn't say that. I'm just saying that it is possible. It was someone else that said he was a military guy. I really don't care, whet they did was awful and they deserve to be punished.

I moved to the UAE to escape the cold, it's flippin' freezing at the moment - come on heat, please come back. I went wakeboarding last week, had to break out the wetsuit and still froze to death, first time in nearly 9 years - what's going on?

Chocoholic

I'm at work and they've got all the ac's going! I've got 2 jumpers on and am still shivering. The ac unit is locked outside

Taffymanc , Just be aware that the kind of job your wife is looking for is taken up pretty much by filipinos and other asian nationalities here and they work for peanuts - so she might have a tough time finding something in that sector. I have a friend who works in a similar industry and he's been ...

Yup yup, the Queen of pop is finally coming to the UAE, Sunday June 3rd at Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.

Tickets releasing soon at www.thinkflash.ae

It's all the same, one God, just by different names - everyone (unless you're an ejit) know that! Muslims do not accept Jesus Christ as the son of God, but he is still acknowledged as a Prophet. Personally it's all hokum if you ask me. All a fairy tale invented by man and nothing more.

Chocoholic

I think it'll be aweomse. But 45,000 people in JUNE! Sweat city!

Chocoholic

Taffymanc , Haha I'll say you got it wrong! In that case, maybe should could apply to some security companies or even the military and polcie forces here, they do employ expats.

Chocoholic

That's some even then!

So housing and car have to be taken out of that? Rents are variable and it depends where you want to live, apartment or villa, what kind of car etc.

Chocoholic

Whether you are Christian, Jew, Muslim, Budhist etc etc it's all the same 'God' I've never come across anyone that has disputed that.

Chocoholic

Well apparently the locals sent some of their children to sit at the other end of the table, so that's why they consider it 'reserved'. For goodness sake it ws a table for TWELVE people! What they couldn't share? Just another example of some thinking they're better and more entitled than others. BM,...

Chocoholic

benwj , Why? They were there first, they'd nearly finished their meal, why should they have moved? He was merely standing up for himself and refusing to be 'bullied', which is all these men were. A bunch of bullies who think they can push others around. So put yourself in their shoes. You've got yo...

Chocoholic

I totally agree. No matter who was there first, there is no justification for beating ANYBODY! Never mind a 7 months pregnant woman. To those of you who seem to think that's ok, as yourself what kind of 'civilised' person does that?

Chocoholic

don't know which stories you're reading BM, but the injuries sustained by the couple have been well documented in the press here, not to mention the other two people who got assaulted. You seem intent on belittling the situation and haven't once condemed the actions of these thugs. Take a look at th...

All sounds a bit messy really. If the employer had given her permission to carry on running the beauty salon, they'd have issued an NOC. Lots of holes and inconsistancies with this one.

To get a taxi from Sharjah to Dubai, you can only take a Sharjah taxi and they put a 20 dhs extra on when they cross the border as it were, and vise versa for Dubai taxis going to Sharjah. From sharjah to Knowledge Village is going to cost you at least 150 Dhs in taxi fares - one way!

Chocoholic

Agreed, it's a nasty tactic used by some companies to get out of paying people what they're due. No of course she didn't deserve to be locked up. Sounds like a very dodgy company to work for.

Chocoholic

So what? Even if they were there forst it's a table for TWELVE people!!!!! As I've said before, some people need to learn to share! Plus you cannot send kids to 'reserve' a table, it's not allowed in busy palces like that. None of it excuses the beating of a pregnant woman and her husband, regardles...

The Music Room caters for the rock sect here. Google them they have a website.

Chocoholic

Flying Dutchman , It's Ikea - you cannot 'reserve' tables. It's go and get your meal, then find somewhere to sit. I've shared tables with people in there on plenty of occassions as it's always rammed. --- Thu Feb 09, 2012 5:29 pm --- As Bora says, it doesn't matter the ifs and whys, beating someone...

Oh they should absolutely go against the Human rights nut jobs in Europe and send him packing back to Jordan and all his sponging family as well!
