Dubai Forums

must be a "conspiracy" just check the philosophy/politics forum and you may get an idea of who may be behind it - the usual suspects!

It is a good thing you guy are charitable. I am glad I joined the forum and found you. I noticed the beneficiaries have been dogs and children (with parents). So it is now my turn. My lovely, amible, friendly and consideret landlord has increase my rent So what about it? Note: I have less legs than ...

Everyone thinks it will be November but someone must be taking the lead. It ain't me as I just made the suggestion.

I've got to see that! I though fetching a dirty/slobery tennis ball was good enough to qualify!

Don't know if a wooden kennel would work - sharp teeths and nails.

"Missing out" if I don't get a rent increase?

arniegang wrote:i pledge 5 dirhams

Thanks Arnie, could you please send the 5 dirhams via FedEx, it should only cost about 180 dirhams to send it (make sure to tick the "super dooper priority" box - before 6 a.m delivery).

Thanks again.

You don't need money in Dubai almost everything is free. Like arnie said, "cash" in large amounts may not be ok. With internet banking you rarely even need to go to the bank (other than to open your account). If you need room to store the cash send it to me (I'll even give you a receipt).

sniper420 wrote:seriously concord how much did it increase cos my @ss is gonna b there soon around Jumeirah?

Not too much just 217,000 dirhams more than the current rent - but its a nice sice flat (with parking for one car).

So how much are you sending?

Wow, you know what I hate to say it, but some of you guys are unbelievable! Yes, of course there is immigrant workers in most countries, getting less than the minimum wage, however I doubt to such a scale that there is in the UAE. I am really, really surprised that after other threads where everyon...

As far as I am concerned there is not "real" post/mail in Dubai. I get mail every couple of months. So much so that I have had my electricy/water/ shut-off for not paying the bill and just this Friday they shut off my cabl/phone/etc. for the same reason. The problem is that I can't pay a b...

Was happily on the way to Madinat for a beer with a mate today early afternoon. Was on a two lane road with my mate in his car. There was a blacked out new lexus in front of us. He was going like 40-50 km/hr max. My mate waited a bit, then gave him a flash to move over. Nothing. Then my mate honked...

Ok folks, I’ve managed to reach 1000 posts and did so: 1) Without a single smiley or emoticon 2) Without a single post in fight club I think that translates into at least 3520 “Arnie posts” based on the smiley part alone. So I belong to a club of "one". So from know on it will be just smil...

Just tell the person not to bother you anymore or you will contact the authorities. If the person persists because he does not think you will call the police then set up a "date". But before you do that you contact DIC (police) and have the police meet the creep instead of you!

Arnie,

Thats OneTrillion-One Hundred Billion-Ten Million and One Thousand posts, quite a ways to go

I am grateful that some people are willing to protest in order to bring certain issues up for discussion (regarless of the intial motive). These people serve a purpose and a public service to those less able to do it (slave labor, around the world, etc.). They can protest without a fear of retributi...

talking about hangovers how did you feel saturday morning Concord ?!!
I'm still tired until now

If I am not mistaken I posted at 5:45 a.m. afterall I only had 127 drinks! Sorry I couldn't keep up to any of you (including the toddler)!

I wrote the following about a story concerning keeping dogs caged and tied to make them aggressive for dog figthing contests: I'm just waiting (or rather hoping) that a few of those dogs get loose and maul some of those as$holes (not to death put permanently disfigured). That'll teach them a lesson ...

And this was a protest about killing mainly muslims. I suppose if the protest was againt slave labor the protesters would get life in prison!

They have us climbing the walls on a daily basis!!

Ian, did you just happen to stop by? Was it on a tour guide? Where you investigating something? Confirming something? or just decided out of the blue to visit these countries and their factories?

Hi reberg, First of all good luck. Every situation is different. Your salary of $4,300 per month translates to 15,600 dirhams per month or $56,000 per year. Strictly as a salary that is not a terrible salary and a lot of people live on less. However it depends of your life style and purpose for comi...

Congrats Concord. I would say you definately have to be the first person to get to 1000 posts without ever having access to fight club!! Will you now be joining?? 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) Only if you pick a fight with me and only so I can kick your a$s :wink: Where you been it must be at least 23 minutes ...

I just noted that there were 455 users on line on DF forums on 7 Feb 2005 anyone know why so many people would be on this forum on that date (anything happened then - can't think of anything).
