Why get bored? They have one of the best stage shows of any rock act.

Shaggy never really want away you know. He's still doing this and that, you can say the same about any act when they haven't released something for a while. Look at Shakira, she played here and yet hadn't produced an album in 2 years! I'd love to go to Faithless, but it's just too expensive to be ho...

Virtually every club in Dubai plays House music, you can't get away from it - BORING AS HELL!

I have a friend, who's got an amzing 3 bed villa off the back of Al Wasl road for 70K. It's gorgeous, so it is possible to find decent accomodation at decent rental prices.

Chocoholic

For how many people is that budget?

You can eat really cheaply in Dubai, you just have to know where to go and sometimes it's cheaper to eat out than buy food - I find anyway, when you can get a meal for two for 25 Dhs, Karama of course, but hey it's good and I like it.

Chocoholic

Never go to the UK, don't know about that. But in Egypt, Lebanon, Bahrain etc you can't text, only call.

Chocoholic

You could try the GMC on Beach Road. They have some very good people in there. Not sure about IVF though.

Chocoholic

With your quals, you should not accept less than 250,000dhs per year to work in dubai and keep in mind that you are an american. It just takes time Darren, he's not American at all - he's a Saudi. But as others have said, I would have thought that your experience of different cultures would be an a...

Are you serious? Go back and make a complete fuss, that they've sold you defect goods and it's their duty to replace the item or refund your money.

Chocoholic

Well Du still have to use all of Etisalat's lines, they're still governmentally owned by the same people that own Etisalat. So no they're not a true competitor.

They're not allowed to compete on price, only on services.

It's all crap really.

Chocoholic

Why worry about what's to come. Live in the now people.

Chocoholic

Lebanon really needs to sort itself out. This country has been through so much, it's appalling. And the only people that suffer are innocents at the end of the day.

Chocoholic

That doesn't help with how you pronounce 'Aussie'!

Phonetically you pronounce it 'Ozzie'.

Chocoholic

But are you any good?

Chocoholic

I hate the gym - I mean hate with a passion, but I do it, because it's the only way to get in shape.

Any suggestions (serious) on ways to liven up a workout?

Chocoholic

Weel for someone who doesn't know how to pronounce it from the spelling Aussie, you just say you pronounce it as you would Ozzie. Same, same, just different spelling.

Otherwise it could be pronounced with a soft 's' and 'au' as in Austria.

Chocoholic

Yeah I like to swim, I used to compete in that.

See it sucks, when you used to be super fit from running and swimming etc, to feel crappy now.

Chocoholic

St L, your funny. But careful what you say, or people might think of you as a peeping Tom, watching your neightbours. Are you a curtain twitcher?

Chocoholic

Oh come on, that was funny. And he's probably right, nocturnal activites are certainly one way to stay in shape.

Chocoholic

No dude.

Chocoholic

ASC, I don't think getting fit is vanity at all. When I'm fit and toned, I feel so much better, I'm more in tune with what my body can and can't do, plus when the body it fit, the mind works better as well. I've never been fat, so if I do have a couple of extra kilos, I notice the difference straigh...

Chocoholic

Yeah now that's what I'm talking about!

Chocoholic

Under Wasl you can call whilst roaming now, which is great. But it would be better if I could SMS, but it's not possible.

Chocoholic

Limited appeal.

Chocoholic

Yeah I thought about that.

Also the classes I really like are:

Body Pump
Body Combat
Body Jam

All really help to ping you into shape.

Wh gives a crap, each to their own.

A bad cough? If you have a sore throat, drink hot honey and lemon, with a little ginger in it - works wonders.

or

Warm milk with some honey in it.

If you have a cold, go get the hottest curry you can stand, it'll whizz that cold out your system in no time.

Chocoholic

Now you see that's the thing. When you see a guy dressed as a woman and he looks better than most women.

Chocoholic

Plus Concorde is a very old plane now, first flew in the late 60's.

The aircraft was also only allowed to fly certain routes and only go supersonic over water because of the noise issues - the supersonic 'bang', can be deafening.
