Of beauty and brains I discourse !!
To Speedy they're par for the course !!
A fine silhouette !!
How divine can one get??
I speak of the CAMEL.....of course !!!

RedKite

I see that Speedy's getting the hump!! You ARE sounding snobbish. However, Dubai will NEVER come down to attracting the types you mention, Speedy, because Dubai is too far to fly, making it dearer. Spain, Portugal and the Canaries will always be favourite for those who want a cheapy holiday in the s...

Politicians expenses are "back",
But they've published many in black ,
Hey diddle-diddle!!
They're hiding a fiddle,
The answer is GIVE THEM THE SACK !!!

Spend ! Spend ! Spend ! was a long ago said,
By a Football Pools winner .......I read,
The truth... she spoke,
So she ended up BROKE !!
Are those words for Dubai now .........instead ??

Sulaiman al Fahim and Hydra ....plus his football interest in Manchester City are mentioned on visit-dubai.co.uk . What is the latest news regarding the Hydra developments? Are they ALL on stop with him in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi ?? If so, Hydra is going to get a very BAD reputation abroad. Investo...

I sometimes get communications from Dubai companies by email . They invariably have .ae domain endings. When will these people realise that if they want to rank highly on Google UK , that .co.uk are their best chance? .com are excellent internationally, but .co.uk are even better on Google UK. .ae d...

I am really busy trying to run 3 businesses at peak time of year in the UK. Is the Mail on Sunday available in Dubai ....or is such a report CENSORED?? Millions saw it in the UK. Now this last Sunday, 21/6/09, the Sunday Times Business Section had a really damaging report on Dubai called "Bye B...

Are you saying that Emaar is giving credit notes, instead of paying people properly? That sounds very bad !!

Nayome, do mind explaining what you did for Emaar.......and when....to earn that AED 350,000 credit note?

How much is that in Sterling at the moment?

Dr Strangelove, Good grief ! You could not be FURTHER from the truth!! The Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday are the MOST popular newspapers for "Middle class Britain" . The Daily Mail seels about 2 MILLION copies a day......without checking!! You amaze me with your last statement . Mail reade...

Well I think I will add to this thread,
Before finally going to bed ,
It's now two fifteen,
And midnight has been !!
There's nothing more to be said !!

Gamercowboy and Desert Dudesh, Why the hell are you so PAROCHIAL ?? I will repeat......If you want to market to the UK ...then USE .CO.UK and .COM domains !! .AE WILL GET NOWHERE.........THERE ARE 60 MILLION POTENTAIL CUSTOMERS IN THE UK!! IF YOU WANT TO MARKET TO FRANCE....use .FR and .COM DOMAIN E...

The 100 Euro Note It is the month of August, on the shores of the Black Sea. It is raining and the little town looks totally deserted. It is tough times, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit. Suddenly, a rich tourist comes to town. He enters the only hotel, lays a 100 Euro note on the...

Gamercowboy, You ask "why would Du get a UK domain name" !!!?? I don't know what you mean. Who is DU ? Dubai is trying it MARKET TO THE WORLD . If it does not....IT DIES!! By all means get your domain with an ".ae" ending.....but get the other endings too !! How many domains with...

RedKite

Gamercowboy, Look, you are being too defensive about .ae domains. WHY? No-one is KNOCKING them!! They have their place, but that is mainly marketing around the Gulf region. Dubai is TRYING TO BE AN INTERNATIONAL TRADING, HOLIDAY AND FINANCIAL CENTRE!! YOU ARE SUPPOSEDLY MARKETING TO THE WORLD!! So w...

No responses then ?

Was it moved cos of something I said ?
It depends on what meaning Sage "read" !
Was it the T*TS ?
[ That rhymes with FITS ],
Sod it ! I'm off to my bed !!

Scarlet, This is an important discussion point. Dubai is going down the tubes partly because it is not MARKETING itself more effectively and GLOBALLY on the internet. I have pointed out here that even though .ae domains may be great in selling Dubai around the Gulf...and to other Arabs......business...

As Sage says, some people not familiar with the piracy problem off Somalia might take this nonsense seriously. I tell you what though, have a look at Cruising the Arabian Gulf on visit-dubai.co.uk . We had an interesting and enjoyable cruise from the cruise Terminal at Port Rashid on the Costa Roman...

RedKite

Scarlet, Total nonsense!! You cannot put the Daily Mail in the same league as the Sun or any of the other "Red-tops" . Content and reportage are completely different. I buy the Daily Mail and Western Mail every day. I vary from Mail on Sunday to Sunday Times to Sunday Telegraph on Sundays,...

RedKite

Why the sudden lack of information on this?
Is it a sensitive issue which Emaar want to quash?

RedKite

Scarlet , Not from Llanelli by any chance, are you Scarlet ? Or were you once in "Gone with the wind?" [ We don't want that to be Dubai's epitaph !!] If you have not participated for quite a while, the last time you wrote, Dubai may well have been booming!! Well, the bubble has well and tr...

Now I'm leaving on a jet plane,
Don't know if I'll be back again !
Soon I'll have to leave Dubai ,
As , away from you I fly !
You will know I've got to go,
But I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU......MO !!!

I am surprised that expats living in Dubai are not discussing this important issue of .ae domain names. I get the impression , from living in the UK that expats living in Dubai are afraid to discuss this, because it will be taken as a criticism of their Arab UAE employers and/or rulers. All I can sa...

I see a tiger play with a bird,
I must take care with each word,
Cos "bird plays with tiger"
Will decide who is fussy,
On DF does beauty get the bird ?

Who's that bird playing with her tiger?

RedKite

On DF p*ss is fine with a Y,
So tiger 's OK ...Tell me why!
If p*ss is banned,
What if your hand,
Excudes beauty from a wound wrapped in band ?

RedKite

tiger has clear double-meaning,
It always depends on your leaning,
But p*ss is a CAT,
It can ONLY mean that !
Or the stuff from a wound that needs cleaning!

[1] Who COUNTS when they are drinking? [2] Besides 12 vodkas [ if they were UK single measures ] is only equivalent to 6 pints of lager ! Not much at all !

That's a bit pathetic, if grown men cannot cope with reading capital letters. Check out one of the most intelligent , informative web-sites on the internet, iceagenow.com. It is full of messages and reports in capitals . There again it is a serious web-site for grown-ups who can cope with reading bo...

This is funny ! Whilst many of you have dodged out of Britain for the Middle East.......the Qataris have slipped into your former country and bought its most famous store !!
