Dubai Forums

Thanks so much for all your help. My company is the one's moving there and Husband is going to be working with us as well. So our jobs are set. We did not have to look for our jobs. They said if we stay in Dubai for 1 year we do not have to pay taxes here in the USA. That we will see. As for the go...

Oh, and one more thing: You will run into morons in dubai (real and virtual) you only need to look back -not too far - in this thread and it will take you a nano second to spot the culprit.

But of course, you must have loads of relatives.

Wow it took less than a nano second!

Hello. I am a new member here. And to be honest the reason I registered is to ask you guys for help. You see, four months ago I borrowed some money from a person. Now that person is demanding the money back and is threatening me. I am really in a bind here and I do not know what to do. I have colle...

Have a good flight. Because I am a nice guy I called your airline to make sure they serve you Biryani on the plane. They ran out of Biryani, apparently lots of Pakistanis flying these days. But they will offer you all the Shawarmas you can eat. http://img91.imageshack.us/img91/79/syrianairlinesjt21k...

Ian, good show of restraint.

You must be getting mellow now! Lucky him!

Ian, you on aussie time today?

I don't believe the story because a person able to log-on to this forum, post, etc. surely knows that you call the police...

How does he know it is illegal? Did he read it on the clouds or read somewhere that the "police" will put you in jail, etc...

It depends

I pressume you mean this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tailgating

If so = illegal

If you mean this

http://www.tailgating.com/

Then, not illegal but no one does it here (except kinda at the beach)!

I try to scan the gulfnews (hard copy) daily and it seems to me that everyday there is a story about catching someone coming into Dxb with drugs. I may be true but I suspect it has to do more with giving people a "warning" about bringing drugs and comitting crimes. It is almost like they h...

My radius is just small, but what I experienced was just untolerable! These guys would bump you, hit you on the head with their hands, step on your foot as if you weren't there! I experienced these even when I was just quietly sitting on a bench waiting for a bus! Where can I buy a jacket with need...

I went to recycle stuff today at the Spinney's in Umm al Queim this morning and behind me was this "I am better than you because I recycle" woman "with the attitude of two moderators".... She had no more than 5 items in her bag (2 cans, 1 bottle and a few newspapers) but perhaps ...

Do you guys know what it takes for an American Citizen to open a shop up in Dubai? I'm starting at ground zero and can use all the information I can get. Thanks, Bobby Unless you have lots and lots of cash which you are willing to part at your business, offer lots of discounts (and lose money) just...

In addition:

a. Don't suggest a draddle party.
b. They don't celebrate Hanukkah here. By the way, Happy Hanukkah.
c. You won't miss pork anyway.
d. You'll be ok even if you are Jewish!

Good luck.

Absolutely brilliant question!!!

Easy answer. Same for all: hot and humid.

What do the Astronomers in DF have to say?


Anyone know when it will be? (I know some guy has to give the go ahead - but science being what it is in the 21st century someon ought to have a pretty good idea).


There is such a thing as "planning" - well, not in Dubai but..

The venue was great. Too bad they didnt serve wine. But the winner of the night was the menu. It said, 1) Sharwama - chicken or meat 2) Big Bird 3) Small Bird :D I heard they also had Shawarmas :P Food looked good. I forgot why we were meeting... Oh Yeah, HP... I was right about him... A few were m...

Well, since you're all going to find out about it eventually, there's a new road opened up connecting Knowledge Village with Umm Suqeim which will make it even easier to dodge the MOE Salik gate. The problem is now all the traffic will come down directly through knowledge village, which is only hel...
