Dubai Forums

oops.

Ok, I intend to stay in Dubai for at least 3 more years, maybe more. If I renew my rental it effectively costs me 7500 per month. I figure that I can buy something for about 700000 (1 bed in discovery gardens or similar) and finance it over 5 years (in UAE) for about 12000 per month. Obviously over...

I'm moving over to Dubai in mid May and want to send a couple of boxes of stuff over from Perth, Australia (nothing major, just clothes, photos, books etc). I dont have my accomodation in dubai sorted yet as the company i am working for will put me up in a hotel for a week or so and give me time of...

long f*****g day and I see this. Actually tomorrow already. Here are my 2 fils. They will have to catch the bastards and make an "example" of them. Think about it: there is a lot more to be lost if the perception becomes that Dubai is not safe and/or an easy target. I just hope they catch ...

Where did you get the maid from?

Maybe they advertise for their services in the newspaper check them gulfnews, etc.

Maybe they advetise at the loal supermaket check there.

Maybe change the locks.

I posted about my inability to find jobs in Dubai since I don't have professional experience or perhaps because I need to be patient and give it a little more time. At any rate, I have a lot of time on my hand, so I'd like to do some volunteer work to occupy my time, and more importantly build my r...

Thats $130,000.00 per year with no kids, and the posibility of the other person working.

Consider this: taxi drivers make, on average, $6,500 per year working 12 hours a day 7 days a week. Your salary would be 20 times more than that. Developers are still being generous...

Two medical students were walking along the street when they saw an old man walking with his legs spread apart. One of the students said to his friend, "I'm sure he has Petry Syndrome. Those people walk just like that." The other student says, "No, I don't think so..The old man surely...

Man oh man, That was a lot of fun. I never knew I was so talended until the signing started. Once you start you can't stop. Good to meet all those new faces. For those who missed it :bootyshake: PS. If you think you can't sing, no worries, director Constantinovsky will be there to tell you when to s...

P.S. I had typed a name there but thought it would be better to leave it out since the name is already known to those who have been here a little while anyway

did it again. must be all that singing last night. But while I am on this topic. Kage: shut the fcuk up will ya. No lol. I take that to mean you don't want to pick a fight with me. My recommendation: don't - if you are as "smart" as you think that is. By the way, Freza & Mac are smart...

The other king of blue jellyfish, and by far the most common here in the UAE, is normally available in the local Indian grocery...you get your vegetables in it! There is a plague of these thin blue plastic bags drifting offshore. There is no such thing as recycling. There is no such thing as a cons...

I am holder of a french passport. I am in dubai and decide to go to oman for a few days. Will it be possible to re-enter dubai with the same visa when back from oman? Or I will be granted another visa?

answer: another visa.

I've enjoyed many discussions on this forum - however of late I've found myself posting less and less, and finding less being posted that holds my attention. I shall still look into the forum on the odd occasion - but for now I will become a more infrequent visitor. Take care and God Bless. Wasalaa...

I got to discuss sports "associations" with some folks. That is: what country you mostly associate when you hear of a team sport: Here is the "consensus" (without too many thrown punches). Cricket = India Rugby = Australia Sailing = New Zeland Basketball = USA Baseball = USA Hock...

Critic on how people handle grief in the light of how the media operates is quite a sweeping generalization on the individual.

Well said man.

Also it amazes me that no-one has said anything thing about how this could have been avoided. Cho, from South Korea originally, had been taken out of college two years previously, due to mental health issues. He was in councelling and being given phsychiatric treatment. For some bizarre reason all ...
