But of course you have to pay a special subscription for it!

Unfortunately depends 'where' you come from as an expat. What nationality were the people of the certificates he threw on the floor?

Chocoholic

I would say that's pretty much impossible. No they can't work on a visit visa, they have to be sponsored by the company, have a labour card and health insurance.

Even students living here can't find summer work because of those issues.

In case you didn't notice I was voted Miss Dubaiforums 2005. Hence the crown. It was given to me by the mods.

Chances are slim. However the only way to find out is to have an HIV test. Let that be a lesson to your friend.

Without 6 months bank statements showing your 'salary' going into your account, plus a salary certificate, you will find it pretty much impossible to get a mortgage here unfortunately.

Who really cares, it's all a load of boohockey anyway.

In a word NO they can't. Under the new tenant/landlord regulations, on the signing of a new contract that rental rate is valid for 2 years, they cannot put up the rent until then, and they must PROVE that they care going to live in the apartment.

You can take this up with the rental committee.

Chocoholic

Contact the rental committee as they can't do that.

Guns are the worst invention ever, they should all be banned, everywhere period.

I feel safer here than I do in the UK, that's for sure. These threats are being made all the time. The powers that be will just throw some more money at the guys making the threats to make them shut up again for a while.

You felt you needed to write 3 seperate posts whih make no sense whatsoever? - pfff

Chocoholic

Instead of looknig for a 'pedigree' dog, why don't you go to K9 Friends and give a home to a poor homeless dog?

Chocoholic

It's unfair to keep a dog in an apartment anyway, whatever the size.

All I hear is 'blah blah blah'

Chocoholic

Well exactly. You know what if it's going to happen, it'll happen, you can't keep running scared of these morons.

Chocoholic

Make sure you have your prescriptions with you!!!

Yes things like Codeine is a 'controlled' substance, therefore you cannot bring it into the country, however if it has been prescribed to you and you have the script you should be ok.

I've had Codeine prescribed to me in the UAE by doctors.

Chocoholic

Well for the most part it is good!

Although I managed to go through security at the airport last week with a load of liquids in my hand luggage, no-one bothered to check.

Chocoholic

Hahahaha that'll put a big old spanner in the works won't it!

Human Rights? In the UAE? Tosh no such thing!

Chocoholic

Are you promoting the National or something? 7 Days had that story aaagggeeesssss ago!

Chocoholic

Human Rights rules are the worst thing - ever!

That's why we can't jail or deport half the losers in our country as it's going against their 'human rights'. As far as I'm concerned if you've committed a crime against another person you've given up your rights - end of!

Pfff typical yanky attitude towards firearms. If you took guns away at least people would have one less thing to kill others with! er hello, you can't exactly shoot from distance with a knife or a club or whatever are you. And don't give me the police crap either, our officers in the UK aren't armed...

Can I beat the sh*t out of that guy, to see how he likes it?

Chocoholic

Why should he keep his comment to himself? That's putting your head in the sand and ignoring the situation and hoping it will go away. Sure there are incidents of violence against women and men in other countries, we all know that. However, women are not viewed as 'property' for the husband to do wi...

Chocoholic

They do not give licences for tattoo's anymore, they did for a time. So for now it's illegal.

Chocoholic

Unless there's a phone number or they're being couriered, I'd say you're pretty screwed, there's no street postal deliveries here.
