Yep, there's a fog light button of the dash board but it only turns on high intensity lights on the front, they just aren't there on the back, I've looked and looked, no sign of the little blighters, no Pajeros have them.

Considering the UAE is a multi-cultural country and does not enforce women to cover themselves like in Saudi, I think it's an irrelevant question.

Chocoholic

Depends what you belive really now doesn't it Zam.

I think she means the Coffeebean and Tea Leaf, it's a coffee house chain.

Lime Tree Triple chocolate brownies are the best.

Just use your head, obviously don't go wandering aound in public places wearing a vest top and short shorts. Both men and women should dress more modestly during Ramadan.

I dont' care if I get flamed for this, I'm going to say it anyway! It was not the Pope's opinion, he was quoting from another text, rightly or wrongly. However the reaction from the Islamic world is once angain nothing more than ridiculous, with threats to kill the Pope, down with the Vatican etc et...

Nope all the clubs have their licences taken away from the 20th, they can open on the 21st if they want, but they have to pay extra for the permissions, so many won't bother.

Chocoholic

Well much of the media is to blame for this fiasco, as they did not quote the whole of his speech, or the rest of the quote which the Pope was refering to, which puts the 1 sentence or so into context, which says that religion should be taught through peaceful methods and not through violence. I am ...

Chocoholic

Ok, a couple of things, reacting violently to an accusation of violent behaviour isn't necessarily very intelligent if you're disputing the claims. Secondly, the Pope represents the Catholic Church, not the Islamic faith, what do you expect? I personally think Muslims should attempt to at least pro...

Chocoholic

No it's not communism at all Sniper, communism is a totally radical and horrid way to run things, clearly you don't know the difference. Just because you don't have religion doesn't make you a communist. And there are far more important things to get angry and upset about than a few silly words, for...

Dude, log onto http://www.dubailook.com/forums and talk to the guys from Pepermint yourself. I went to the Ferry Corsten event, it was great, but the crowd sucked, as soon as he started dropping the progressive trance, most of them stood there like total morons not knowing what to do, they can't cop...

PAranoid you were having an astral projection but an incomplete one, it mustve felt weird, but sounds like an involuntary astral projection. in astral projection you learn abt the depths of ur mind. ive been trying voluntary but never been successful. Wrong! That's not astral projection. Paranoid w...

The dreams/nightmare as you call it if its really happening to you, is no longer normal. Seek professional help. :oops: There's no need to get help for this stuff, it's just that some people are more aware and able to have deeper sleep and dream experiences than others. Plus medication can do some ...

Just because someone is pretty, doesn't necessarily mean they have high self-esteem, it can actually be a big cause of a lack of self-confidence.

Chocoholic

Yep, here we go, as expected the typical fanatical reaction! - From Sky News: Gunmen shot dead an Italian nun at a children's hospital in Mogadishu in an attack that was linked to the Muslim backlash provoked by a speech by the Pope. The Catholic nun was blasted three times in the back. She was rush...

Chocoholic

Well this thread got well and truly hijacked didn't it

Chocoholic

As usual in me jeans and jumper as the AC is bloody freezing.

I'm always careful of what I wear in certain places, you have to be.

Chocoholic

Sadly K, people like you and me would get dragged into it anyway, as we would automatically be branded 'infidels'.

Chocoholic

Well after reading the entire article it all sounds a little bit convenient to be honest. Egyptian fiance, who probably said he wouldn't marry her unless she converted, destitute and turned down by several organisations and only the people at the mosque would help out with cash and food - hmmmm good...

Chocoholic

Man, it takes me forever to get into town from Mirdiff these days, the traffic is heavy 24/7.

Chocoholic

Depends how the Tabooleh is done! In Europe you use more Cous cous and less Parsley, which is how I like it personally.

Chocoholic

Nearly time for this. It's going to be a great event.

Chocoholic

Hello All, Please note that topics posted in the Events section, should be relevant to events happening in the UAE. The topic should have a header giving brief information as to what the event is about. They should have date, location, time, cost and information about the event if possible. Web addr...

This is not a dating forum.

First of all, the pope did not apologize. He said he is sorry that his statement was misunderstood. That's not an apology. MaaaD, the speech disrespects 1.5 billion Muslims on this earth. The pope's quote was: "Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new, and there you will find things onl...

Chocoholic

Once again Sniper there you go with your judgmental attitude. Personally it doesn't bother me if the story was true or not, the point is, what is the point of the post? Whoopdidoo so someone converted to another religion - people do it everyday, it's hardly breaking news is it.

Chocoholic

Sadly all this stuff just goes to reinforce my opinion that any and all religions are more problematic than they're worth.

Chocoholic

It's guys that drive us vrackers Maaad, don't forget the saying, behind every man there's a good woman.

I hate shopping too, bores the hell out of me.

Chocoholic

No! You can discuss about a particular event in the thread for that event. But it'll only turn messy if people start posting up random stuff. 'General' questions, should be kept in the 'General' area, once an specific event comes up, then I think it should be moved/a new thread created in events.

Chocoholic

Yes I'm there all during the event, I'm heavily involved with it. It should be very interesting with lots of different things to see.
