I hear voices all the time 'sshhhh no, hmmm I won't do that, oh ok then maybe I will, hahahahahaha mmmmmmmmmmmmmm' I'll believe in the forces of nature and the universe instead and that what you put out you get back. Simple laws of attraction, that's all. Chocs - are you a follower of the Secret or...

Sadly K, the DEMANDED and got it! Because in the UK, the looney PC brigade bow down to the minorities and don't give a hoot about everyone else.

Some children are wonderful. As I said before my little niece is ace, but her parents have worked really hard to bring her up as a respectful, polite little girl who isn't spoilt or pandered to.

Chocoholic

Its not like brits trying to demand stuff here, like boinking on the beach, or getting sloshed in public or flouning around in panties. And then getting really cross and throw a hissy fit when they get called on it ! That's not demanding anything DDS, that's just rubbish behaviour - don't compare i...

herve, you never say you don't have a religion here - that goes without saying, if you're white and western you ALWAYS put Christian - you can't put Jewish obviously. Although try telling them Jedi - that raises a few eyebrows lol But in employment terms, it's one rule for all and that's that. Altho...

Chocoholic

Yeah but most expats want to come here and live the Jumeriah jane and joe lifestyle here and couldn't be arsed about rasing kids. Do and get things they could never ream of back home. So they get the "nannies" to do it while they go out and paint the town red. Correction, they hire a MAID...

Chocoholic

I get sick and tired of people using their religion as an excuse for things - er hello, it's YOUR choice, it shouldn't affect others.

Chocoholic

Sorry guys Herve is right in his story! Plus there was an incident in Saudi I think a couple of years ago when a fire broke out at a girls school, and the MEN locked them all in to burn to death because tyhey didn't have time to put their head coverings on. It was well documented. http://news.bbc.co...

Are you all going to stand around in anoraks eating cucumber sandwiches with flasks of tea?

What a fruit loop! Yeah can I sue her for radiation exposure?

UAE, Saudi, etc., ...third world, 3rd class people, have a long way to go before they reach civilization. We all know what to expect there. You still choose to be amongst them, though. Here is a story from a friend of mine whose car was smashed head on by a white guy, in the UK, and my friend (who ...

Whats the name for that? Hypocritical??, I'd say so.

Well you knw there is a saying in this place 'what's the difference between a racist and an expat?' - '3 weeks!'

Chocoholic

Agreed that there needs to be an established set of rules that EVERYONE needs to stick to.

Chocoholic

Well the BBC's Panorama basically killed the England votes with their program on FIFA corruption being aired just days beforehand.

Hey at least in Qatar they'll be no drunk hooligans running riot!

The whole thing is a fix, everyone knows it and it's a real shame.

Chocoholic

DK, a good post, but sadly some of the mods themselves are the biggest culprits! You yourself are a prime suspect for taking many threads off topic, albeit with humour, but still you derail many many threads. DDS and Bora are constantly at each others throats, so what kind of example does that set w...

Chocoholic

It was the same with DSF and DSS, if you didn't know they were going on, there was hardly anything advertising it.

Chocoholic

I actually have to disagree. The price of the Sevens tickets have stayed the same for the last 3 years! If you wait and don't buy them, there are always people trying to off load them for half the price a few days before, or you can rock up and buy it from people wandering round outside trying to se...

LOL I agree. Plus who has the time for all that - eish people have lives you know and don't LIVE on the forum.

Chocoholic

Back ON topic!

Considering how popular the Sevens is I don't think anything will change anytime soon. Basically if you like it go, if you don't then don't. Many people go for the atmosphere as well as the games.

Chocoholic

Well I asked for the sig change ages ago, it's horrible.

Chocoholic

Is your friend in the UAE flutterbye? You know Codeine is a controlled drug here, if she gets caught with it, without a valid prescription she could face four years in jail plus deportation.

Chocoholic

Well at least someone has finally come out and basically said that locals are wiping themselves out of the roads: http://www.7days.ae/storydetails.php?id=100532&page=localnews&title=Safety must start at home And many of the idiots didn't get away with it: http://www.7days.ae/storydetails.php...

Oh and now another new one, residency will not be renewed for people who have a case against them for financial obligations - er so how are they expected to work pay back the money. Didn't really think that one through.

Chocoholic

Well before they go about a price hike, why don't they educate people about being more energy efficient. Like not having malls/eateries etc Arctic, if they knocked the ac's all down a bit, that in itself would save a tonne of cash. Telling people not to water their driveways - use a broom! Also perh...

Chocoholic

It's also not surprising given the fact that most people were asked to pay rent up front, borrow cash for cars etc etc.

The UAE really really has to change its laws and help people get out of the situation it/they are in. I don't see it getting better anytime soon.

Chocoholic

Normal for this time of year. I've had an evil case of sinusitis for the last month - only just shifting it now.

Chocoholic

Through education on how to use utilities more efficiently - as I previously said!

Chocoholic

I'm so tired of all these increases, new rules etc and all to make money. Why don't they just be upfront about it ad make a tax. Everyone knows it's all BS.

Chocoholic

And this post is relevant to Dubai how?

Chocoholic

Eish don't look very hard do you. All of the above available at most run of the mill supermarkets.
