oh man....you get one female every so often that just makes the rest of us look bad!

I didn't think chicks really thought like this - just thought it was a bad stereotype!

Sheesh!

I think the best gifts/flowers etc to get are the ones that are unexpected!

nope...just normal...prefer not to be typecast "female"....or anything for that matter. I'm just...me

ooh that sounds good - are they selling the PAL versions? and do you think they would ship out here?

Coops

I have one of those aramax shop and ship accounts so i think if i get it in the UK i can have it sent that way - dunno the shipping cost though. All the major stores here are selling them for AED2500! I doubt anywhere here will be selling them for any cheaper in the near future. Would rather not hav...

- Lemongrass (the restaurant or food stall at Ibn Battuta mall). Tasty Thai foods, even better than what I had when living in Bangkok. mmm i agree i looove lemongrass I love Chinese food. But Chinese food in Dubai are all suck, so I can't recommend one. Have you tried the place behind (sorta) lemon...

I like vegemite, i dont eat it all the time though and back home a small jar could last over a year sometimes. Now i havent felt like it all since i got to Dubai, but in the last month or so i have been having serious cravings. I have checked the trade centre spinneys, DCC Carrefour and the Choitram...

Don't forget the Chinese place behind Lemongrass - Lam(?) Kwai Fong , not like food court chinese at all! Next door to this place is the Fish Basket (opp ENOC Building) - a great lebanese seafood place, you pick the type of seafood you want and then ask them to cook it how you like. Oh i also like n...

it's a spread that you can put on bread/toast - good quick breakie and even better late night snack!

i've not had much of a chance to get out and about in Dubai - so interested to see what places people recommend......

So......where's good?

Coops: Sorry - I'm of little help to you. :( no problem, worst case senario i have friends coming over in a few months they will have to bring some for me. YUUUUUUUUUUUK! Nasty, smelly stuff. :pukeright: I have decided the reason most people dont like the stuff is because the first time they try it...

I voted Vegemite!.....to be honest, i haven't tried marmite - but everyone i have spoken to who likes Vegemite, thinks marmite is rubbish!

Coops

it would feel like betrayal!

....have a jar of V coming my way in a couple of weeks....going to try and hold out!

i miss blueberry jam right now

Nah, nutella is a whole different story - thats more like a dessert, need to be seriously craving chocolate.

Can't do Jam very often - quite like a good fig jam though.

Coops

i don't know...as it stands i dont think enough people have been polled to sway my decision. Now if i didnt have someone promise to bring me back some vegemite in 2 wks, then i may be giving marmite a chance - but as it stands after nearly a year with no vegemite i am prepared to wait another few we...

Steve If you havent had any local experience this is a good salary to get your foot in the door - and if you think you can get by the first year then probably worthwhile if you are keen to get out here. Your market worth will increase after your first 12months - and so if your employer are looking t...

I am SUPERGIRL 75%....huh is there even a supergirl??, or am i just not a superhero and they didnt want me to feel bad?!

Coops

perhaps google around to find out what specific book you need then go into one of the big stores, borders maybe, and ask them if they can order it in for you - maybe check out the borders online store in the US. I would think if the US store stocks the book you are looking for, the local store could...

The best really is peasent vision, showtime, orbit, evision all aren't worth it imho and fricken expensive, with free to air, you get BBC world, Al Jazeera English, One TV, MBC 4,2 and their new action channell.

mmmm i've got to stop reading this thread as it is increasing my vegemite cravings! I have a jar winging its way back to me in a week - so i am going to hold out till then The choitrams besides union co-op near safa park might have it. If not, then park n' shop further down al wasel road should. Not...

hahahaha, surprisingly my DVD collection has grown since moving here as well ;) Do you live in an apartment or a villa? assuming you're in an apartment then chances are there is a satellite on the roof of the building, at least one of those will be your free to air ones. We did exactly that in our ...

I'd leave off the photo to start with, as Dubai can be quite judgemental but have one handy as alot of employers out here like to see what you look like. Oh and... recruitment agencies (well the good ones dont anyway) dont change details - they just take off your contact details and put there own on...
