Well there are other people who should be banned for the same thing then.

Chocoholic

Great reply dude.

Chocoholic

Zoots, very sorry to hear that. Take care of yourself. You will be missed.

Chocoholic

For the life of me I will never understand people having healthy, young animals put to sleep just because they can't care for them. That's very sad indeed, I hope someone can give them a home.

Chocoholic

And where on earth did you get that assumption from? Can't stand the BNP or anything they stand for! IF they ever got into power at any stage then god help that country.

The 28th will apparently be a dry night for the beginning of Eid.

I for one don't believe in the 'eye for an eye' punishments. Plus the way the media televised and published footage of the hanging is

Once again a thread goes off on a tangent. I for one take great offence at the suggestion that non-believers are narrow minded. Purely because many of them will have looked and researched all the options, and come to an educated decision to not believe in God or religion. Is this not more open minde...

Chocoholic

Well it is a pretty offensive term, as it effectively implies that as a person who doesn't believe in God or religion, you're seen as a lesser person.

You wouldn't call a Christian a 'Bible Basher' or a Muslim a 'head banger', so why should derogatory terms be used for others.

Hey All, Happy New Year. I went away for New Year, and I have to say whenever I go out of the UAE, I'm starting to dread coming back everytime. Everywhere else feels like normality compared to Dubai, the shine is definately coming off. Just getting into the airport, people here can act like animals,...

Chocoholic

Sure if you want to live with my folks and the dog and kitty.

Actually the job is one thing I'm considering changing. I miss being freelance and being my own boss.

Chocoholic

Regardless, I still the term is unpleasant.

Chocoholic

Personally I think it's ridiculous, however the sheer expense of living here very often dictates that both parents have to work. However my mother took years out of work to raise me and my brother, but it's virtually impossible to do that now, unless you're very well off. Another issue is that you h...

Hi Mez, I brought my dog and cat over from the UK and it was a relatively easy process. You need to make sure your pooch has all the relevent vaccinations, plus you'll need export and import documentation from the country you're leaving and from the Dubai municipality. Emirates were fantastic with m...

Xibit, Southwark?! PLease darling I come from a posher place than that!

Been here three and a half years now. Think my main issue is I feel chanined to work at the moment, so no time for a life whatsoever. I work to live, not live to work.

Chocoholic

Also another issue which we've just run into. The lease ran out on the 31st December, so of course all the contracts were resigned and everything before that date, with the 15% increase. I doubt very much that any landlord will go back and redo the contract according to the new rates.

Chocoholic

Hey Mez,

Alot of landlords and various places don't allow pets, but people just tend to have them and not tell anyone.

Chocoholic

The point is, did the world really need to see it? On Greek tv, they showed the entire thing, it was horrific.

Chocoholic

It's an intersting debate. Paranoid, you're probably right in that not all athiests have looked at all the options, but many have. I tend to agree with Scot on many of his points. Plus people can also have faith, without being religious. It's one of those discussions which can go round and round. Ev...

Chocoholic

Yeah, if you've got a spare 7,000Dhs to take your case to them. Not worth it.

Chocoholic

Hehehe, Thanks dude, but no. Afraid I have my sights on something a little higher.

Chocoholic

Yeah, we're going to do that. Our landlord has always been quite reasonable, particularly if you make the effort to go and talk to him in person.

Chocoholic

I love Outlandish. They're from Denmark though.

This is not a dating/marriage forum.

Thta's top! The guy is such a loser, what a pathetic excuse.

Chocoholic

Actually animals aren't required to be microchipped. HOwever they have to be if they're part of the pet passsport scheme. THe discs also are a nightmare to get hold of. My furbabies still have their municipality discs from a year ago, as they simply haven't given enough to the vets to give out this ...
