I have not heard of any upper age limit on property ownership particularly one not requiring financing.

Without sounding morbid and depending on your age, your main concern should be inheritance laws, etc. in case you truly mean retirement until...

If I find otherwise I'll let you know.

Well, it's just that you and he.................or you and you..............managed to post at exactly the same time yesterday. So either you have the transporter from the Enterprise or............... I spend far too much time on this forum. Beam me up, Scotty. Being a Trekkie can't be good for you...

Been around any bird sanctuaries lately?

Hi, I just arrived in Dubai this morning. I'm travelling solo so I'm looking for any other solo travellers out there. I'm male, 31 from Canada. If you're looking to go out for a few drinks or whatever PM me. No one likes Canadians. But in case I am wrong; check out the "Events" forum (Pai...

I don't mind there is no day light savings in Dubai since I've save lots over the years and should have days left by the time I leave Dubai.

As I read it what matters is the country that issued you the license not your country of citizenship but I imagine that since you hold an indian passport they'll give you a hard time :) You should have no problem converting your UK license - which is strange since they drive on the wrong side of the...

Hi all, I am new in Dubai and am desperately searching for a home for my family. We dont want to buy since the prices are ridiculous - well, the rents are not better but at least we are more flexible. I have a genereal question for all the ones that have rented recently a villa/apt - is it normal t...

I just came from the central post office in Karama (took forever to find) to pick-up a package. It was something that I bought when I was home but the seller screwed-up and did not deliver it to me before I flew back. So they shipped it to Dubai "free of charge". Well, in order to get the ...

Hi everyone, Something I want to get a clarification on. I've joined a small company in the Internet city freezone but now realize that it is not at all what I initially thot I was getting into and now I want to get out. I've heard that you can complete a years service and leave the company if you ...

You forgot to include me in the handsomest, smartest, funniest, most modest category. Otherwise good post. Hey, we all get at least one of those eventually.

On the third attempt according to him i made no mistakes, but i had :) but still i passed. On the same day there was an egyptian with us for the test first time, he spoke to the police in arabic and got his license in first go even after breaking the most important of the rules. What :shock: :shock...

This is my 3rd time trying for the road test with Emirates Driving School. I know I have given my best shots so far..but I failed once more again. In my opinion, the examiner shouldn't judge the student within 5 minutes of drive. One mistake then you are failed. In this 5 minutes, you have to be pe...

Tell me about it

and why should you be?

The main question is if housing is truly being paid or whether you are getting an allowance. A 3 bedroom villa will cost you a pretty penny. So make sure that they are actually paying for the housing. With an allowance you would have to pay the difference. With housing paid and the rest of it works ...

K9 Friends is delighted to announce that the Dubai Government has offered the dog rescue organisation a life line by providing them with sufficient land within the Dubai area to build a purpose built dog welfare shelter. The government have intimated a very real concern to develop animal welfare in ...

Excellent news - I know there was a lot of concern about the fate of K9. I hear that about 400k Dhs have been raised already. Cheers, Shafique Now the hard part starts. That is collecting the funds. But will send the DFM (Dubai Forum Mafia for noobies) after then if anyone is thinking of reneging o...

The plot for where the new place will be is quite nice, and I know certain people had to push hard to make sure it wasn't halfway to Oman.

Thansk man

We'll call one of the new kennels "Ian".

It should make no difference except in one respect (your gratuity is calcualted on the salary amount - excluding allowances). However you should get the salary and allowance in hand for you to do whatever with it! Your allowance will many times have no relationship to what you will actually spend in...

That's interesting. How does a team carry points from the pool - group winner or...?

So the Windies could be loved!

Wait, if I recall they are not - they shoudl also have 2 points. Right?
