Dubai Forums

none of the Bacon in Spinneys or Choithrams is any good. It's all crappy english bacon... I want proper Aussie bacon with the rind and everything. The spinneys on al Wasl road (well the one before Al Safa park coming from the Marina direction) has a good selection of bacon and other infidel foods.

We recently saw in french television a report about Latvia, Riga. Seems to be the new " Ibiza" for british. They told they organized some kinda prostitute tours or something, it was shocking... I was shocked by British guys attitude when I went to Ibiza in 2004...even saw at the Airport a...

Fine by me.

Bleakus is right, Yemen is wonderful... Nobody talked about South America ? I won't visit Colombia, Israel-Palestine too...and my third will beeeeeeee...Italia, because Italians are very very noisy^^ Just kidding for Italy, but each time I met Italians they talked to me noisily So 1-Colombia 2-Isra...

I left Tbilisi, Georgia last evening and was faced with a language barrier situation. After checking in and clearing immigration I wanted something to drink but had only Dirhams and Dollars and 2 Lari (their currency). I saw this bar and asked whether they accepted dollars. The waitress said: "...

Sheikmo, I think you need to pick-up some "HP speak" (they'll still wont figure it out)!

What are you looking for when you are traveling? shopping? nature? nightlife? cultures? Not shopping (can do at home - and people travel to my hometown to do just that) Nightlife (not in the "club", "drink till you drop" sort of way - midnight is the limit while on vacation). No...

Hardly. I don't think he ever performed (other than alone)!

There are other interesting cats in this forum (and some dawgs)!

I would be glad if you could read them and come back to it.

Thanks a lot.

re-read the thread!

I think that would be "HU"

It might all be just fish and chips!

You reckon Concs? I don't know, I can russle up a mean Chilli, curry, roast, pretty much have a go at anything. Well its kind of culanary stereotyping but kind of true. Anyways, at a friend of mine's dauther's school they had "international food day" and there were some interesting dishes...

I would say get at least as much as you would get in the UK as the tax-free status would mean an automatic raise. They are no longer (if ever) throwing money away in Dubia for those sort of jobs. The UK expats here will be better to advise you on the tax-free status (how long you have to be out of t...

I don't have an account and shouldn't - too busy (as my almost 4K posts will tell you).

Seems like Sheikmo (the poster) is not liked. I've read his posts and they don't bother me. Maybe I've been away or there were posts that he/she made that were deleted.

What did I miss?

I love beans on toast, scrambled egg on toast, cheese on toast, cheese, bean and ham toasties - mmmm toast! You could always head down to Yahala in Karama and get Brains on toast with French 'Fairies'! Beans on toast has got to be the grossest thing on earth. Although I never tried them (nor will I...

If I had wife I would not let her post on internet. Now everyone knows you mumble. Good luck getting job in Dubai. Oh tsk tsk, you poor fellow. You are a bit slow aren't you my dear? Perhaps that's why you don't have a wife :cry: Don't worry, I'm sure one day you'll find a nice girl who doesn't min...

the thought of baked beans in the mornign is repulsive!

As i thought no big deal.

I kind of like this Sheikmo character and Ian would probably like him. Sage & Onion and Arniegang would hate him (more of a reason to like him).

Wait, is Sheikmo a boy or girl anyway?

I am not married so position vacant but please do not apply. Who can apply? I'm guessing from previous responses of Mr. Mo's you need to be able to cook. Can you cook? How did we go from "Sheikmo" to "Mr. Mo" I thoughtt "Dr. D" was plenty :roll: Mr. "Clueless - ak...

I saw point break too. Wouldn't they have censored out such ourageously offensive comments before you saw it? I got Point Break from DVD man who comes to my door. He had uncensored version. In fact he had many videos that make my eyes pop out of my head. 15 AED each. He's charging you way above the...

Your friend should be given a medal for punching that *******!

I was wondering about any recent contribution by the brits (forget colonialism - obviously the americans kid their a$$ and more recently they have lost all their "empire" in the last 60 years). Frankly, I came up empty. But since Dubai is such a large British Expat post I figure I would be...

Been a while since you posted that much in a day?

If HP were around he woudl surmise you broke up with yoru boyfriend...

In case anyone is interested, I am fine. It only lasted for about 30 min. Thinking back its not bad. At least it forced me to get off my chair and went downstairs for some air. Taking appropriate break from work / or forum is also a good policy :lol: Read the post but did not comment in cased you d...
