Re: EID MUBARAK

Well it wasn't so much Happy flippin' Eid this morning, as all the lanes were blocked to where I needed to go by people just getting out and leaving them all over the place to go and pray. Another excuse to be void of all common sense and consideration for others I'm afraid! Chocs, you went toally ...

Re: Royal Wedding...

Well I think it will be nice and the fact that William gave Kate, Diana's engagement ring means a lot. Now if only Charles would get out of the way so William would be the next monarch, that would be wonderful. Also I think you forget how many tourists would flock to the UK to witness this, just lik...

Ah yes so it did.

Re: Royal Wedding...

Well there was lots of speculatimon a couple of years ago that Kate was beneath Wills and that they didn't approve. So I think he IS marrying the person he wants to.

With regards to Diana's ring, Diana picked it out herself, so it's a nice gesture.

Re: Arranged Marriages

Mel, it's not about not wanting to learn about different cultures, but the way many of us have been brought up, marrying another member of your family is just wrong, scientifically it's wrong, morally it's wrong. Bearing in mind that for us, our cousins are as close to us as a brother or sister - so...

Re: Threatening PM's

If you're referring to the one I sent you BM - there was nothing 'threatening' in it! Stop throwing your toys out the pram because people are ticked off with the way you're treating them on the forum. Plus I know for a fact you've also been sent PM's from other members because of your actions. If YO...

Well you see British people aren't being asked what they want! It's all being decided by government. In recent years there has been a massive shift in large city demographics, as the white, middle class move out into the more rural areas or are leaving the country completely. That's another shock th...

Hi dani, I'll be brutally honest and say the help you'll get on this forum for this topic is limited at best. Have a look at expatwoman.com there's a 'babies and bumps' section as well with all the info you need.

Re: Dubai Public Beaches

It was utterly disgraceful that the tanker drivers were dumping their sewage into drains, that flowed straight out into the sea and onto the public beaches.

The tankers were always queued back for miles around International City, some sitting there for 12 hours or so - horrific.
