They tried that with Crouch.

But I agree with you and I hate to say it, but United is quality.

First of all there's no such thing as a British accent, faked or not, since that's the original language. Technically all other non British people will have some sort of accent. Another thing: If I am not a native speaker I will have the accent according to whom I learned English from. The more you...

"In 2009, we will hand over the majority of our properties. That is when we will start recognising the profit." Basically, they've already sold the apartments off-plan and have that cash from years ago. When they finally hand over, they will announce that they made XX million from selling...

I'll wait until they give you a free apartment every time you fill your car with Super at Emarat.

Your a funny guy, Del.

There is a whole generation of Americans who grew up on easy credit and living beyond their means. It will be a lesson and change of living standards for sure. I must agree. I don't know about whole Americans but easy credit was defenetelly not the best thing for most Afro-Americans and Eastern Eur...

If you are married to a good looking woman then someone came on to you so strongly, someone who is a better looking than your wife. Would you cheat? Is there still honest man around? Sadly, I heard this is common here in Dubai but I wanted to know how common it is. Are you married, a good-looking w...

I'm not questioning her right to adopt a fake British accent...

Well said. They're FAKE.



She slept with my (British) boss and claims to have an Indian boyfriend. Who is she faking it with?

Now that the Russians, Chinese and Africans have taken the fun out of meeting women, I am sure there are plenty of women who look like this in Dubai, longing for a portion.

Post an attractive older woman here.

So basically you're saying; She doesn't shower often...

No. She doesn't photoshop her head onto the body of a woman with large breasts often.

So you meet an Asian with a British accent. You assume by yourself that's a fake accent How can it be anything but when the closest she's ever been to the UK is Dubai? And she didn't grow up with Brits here. An educated Indian who has never been to the UK will speak EXCELLENT, PERFECT English (I kn...

I don't eat pork.
