Yeah that's the stuff.
They do climbing at Wafi.

HHHHmmmmm interesting, but probably true, it's a bit sad really, although my girlfriends just like a guy for the night most of the time, but that's getting a bit boring now and trying to find a decent bloke is finding difficult.

It's OK dude I have a Greek God!

ON: Strong arms, firm hug, stubble, nipple ring.

OFF: whoosy blokes, can't stand limp, weak hand shakes ewwww gives me the creeps.

I thought the Davinci Code was genius, I found it enthralling and couldn't put the book down until I'd finished it. Fact or not it's a good book. Thousands of people are now following the Davinci trail, going to all the places in the book, and a film is slated to go into production late this year st...

HHmmmm interesting, there have been a few cases where a foetus has grown on the intestine, I remember there was much research into this as if it's possible for a baby to grwo in this respect then it would be perfectly possible for men to carry babies. With regard to not having to use speerm, isn't t...

Hello,

Firstly what kind of journalism? Print? Radio? TV?

There are various outlets and there are plans for several more Tabloid type newspapers to be launched in the region.

Through Media City you can set yourself up as a freelancer and there are lots of local bods working in Media here.

Hi, AME Info is a big online news and business site http://www.ameinfo.com It's very well known across the UAE and is very useful. As dxbsoul says all correspondence normally takes place via email/letter/phone. But any company who would seriously offer you a job should pay for your flight out. Also ...

Urgh! Mortgages, my advice to you is don't get one with a company in Dubai! It's all still very new for them here and there's so much red tape it's not true. The amount you have to pay as a deposit is ridiculous you might as well just buy the thing outright from the start, only 25 years tenure and b...

I applied for my ADSL connection online and it did say on the website that it could take upto 2 weeks to be sorted. A few days later an engineer turn up to connect the line and then another couple of days later 2 more chaps turned up to connect up the wireless box. The service was fine the national ...

Ok I think this thread needs to be deleted before it turns nasty. I totally agree with Nik. Abs stop your rants and insightdubai dude whatever your name is you make yourself no better by ranting in return - you're all saddos! The only thing that rings totally true is we all belong to the human race....

Chocoholic

Liban, you're just as bad as abs for denouncing other people's beliefs. Not everyone believes in Islam, not everyone believes in Christinanity what gives you the right to chastise people for not believing what you do? As far as I'm concerned people are free to believe what ever they want, I have no ...

Chocoholic

Exactly so to my previous point - don't bother! In a market which is aspiring to be as upto date as the rest of the world, it's falling well short of the mark so far.

Dubai is just not upto this yet.

Or do you mean liberal?

HI, I was thinking of moving from the US to Dubai and have some general questions. If you have a US green card, how is that affected if you live over seas for 2-5 years? Ask your immigration department. Will your credit suffer if they find out you are living overseas ? (US credit rating) Ask your b...

So how easily a belief can turn dangerous? This is what drives me away from organized religion of every sort. I think what Pumpkin means by this is that people belive so strongly about their religion that it blinds them and stops them being open or tolerant of anything else. i.e. Muslim fanatics wh...

Chocoholic

Liban, don't get me wrong, it was an example!

It's a shame that a small gorup of people tarnish an entire religion, but you don't see any others taking part in such atrocious acts around the globe 'In the name of God' it's pathetic.

Chocoholic

Wasn't sure which forum to post this in. Man this is going to cause a lot of re-writing of things, where everything before has been based on our solar system having 9 planets. ---------------------------------------- ASTRONOMERS have named the solar system's 10th planet Xena - like the warrior princ...

A pint of beer - hhhmmmm jusrt watch it doesn't turn into a pitcher that'll give you beer googles!

muezzin (the person that conducts the call to prayer that you hear 5 times a day in Muslim countries). So in Islam it is illegal and was banned during the Caliphate, Ummayed, Ottoman and other Islamic periods when all Muslim people, Arabs, Persions, Indians, Central Caucases, Moores and others wher...

Who told you to apply personally for work in Dubai?

Where are you from?

The visit visa is just the stamp in your passport you get on a arivval which means you can stay in the country for 30 days, unless you're of a nationality where you must apply for a visa in advance from the embassy.

Chocoholic

You rude arsehole!

And is it really necessary to include all the quotes in your replies.

Why don't you tell us where you DJ, so we can come and laugh at your pathetic lack of skills!

Have a face for radio do you? i.e too minging to do anything else.

Chocoholic

Abs, are we so insecure that we can't you the word - sex?! and I actually think that MTV are being VERY responsible with their adverts. Teenagers will always be having sex not matter how much you preach and complain about it and I'd rather that if they're going to do it, they do it safely! Using con...

Hey as I suggested before if we had a news section I'd have somewhere to put this! The Space Shuttle Discovery landed safely at Edwards Airforce Base in California at dawn yesterday. I watch the live footage of the shuttle de-orbiting - wow how cool was that! It was nerve wracking stuff after the Co...

Chocoholic

Ah you see! Well apparently they want to return to the old capsule idea, which is launch on top of a rocket, forget what they called it, something vehicle. Only thing is the shuttle has been so useful because of its size and the amount of payload it can carry. But an update is seriously needed, I th...

Did you ever see the movie Capricorn 1? They did exactly that!

Chocoholic

Hey, The movie is actually about a faked mission to Mars, but I guess the theories are the same. The movie was made in 1978, log onto http://www.imdb.com It's THE info website for movies, just type in the movie name and the complete cast list, synopsis etc is there for you, I love this website, it's...

Chocoholic

8 years! I'd be asking the question why it took you so long to ask? From a girls point of view, after 8 years together my view point would be if it ain't broke why fix it! Maybe she feels that after so long, what difference is that piece of paper going to make to the two of you. Some people just are...

No it's definately Tom Hanks, directed by the awsome Ron Howard - still can't believe he used to be Ritchie in Happy Days. Cast so far: Tom Hanks .... Robert Langdon Audrey Tautou .... Sophie Neveu Ian McKellen .... Sir Leigh Teabing Alfred Molina .... Bishop Aringarosa Jean Reno .... Bezu Fache res...

Plus have you seen the recent articles in the papers about the drivers paying into health insurance schemes and then Dubai Transport refusing to pay for their treatment! One guy lost his job because he needed a heart operation, they refused to pay for it and when he asked to go home to pay for the t...

And some of us get the pelasure of the oh so annoying 1 and a half days off, you work half day Thrusday and then get Friday off.

I wish there was a generic weekend it's a pain if you have one set and your mates or other half has the other set then you're stuck.
