I write this knowing some very unoriginal replies may follow but I guess it comes with the stereotype of the subject I raise (unfortunately). I have been teaching myself Russian using CD's and phrasebooks for 6 months and now I feel I'm at the stage where I want to converse as it's one thing learnin...

You mean the ...Crowne Plaza??? I'm all for the fun of it but I've noticed these kinda threads get more lost in the sideshow of amateur stand up than the substance so apologies for trying to stop the fire before the flames are fanned and the smoke hides the original post. I learned 'Skol' ka' a long...

I'm yet to try the delightfully sounding borscht but with beetroot figuring pretty heavily I'm not so sure but thanks for the offer of cullinary tutoring and hospitality. Do you have any friends who also look Russian and speak the Motherlands native tongue? Even as I write this I just can just imagi...

By the way ! How does anyone learn a difficult language like Russian........whilst thinking that "Russian's " is the plural of Russian ? There are no apostrophes in plural words!! The web thread title is WRONG!! If I can't even master my own language then what chance do I have of learning...

Ruggedblond

The first site was all in Russian (which I have a problem understanding) and the second was linked to buying the domain name. Thanks for the thought but I'm looking at something more one to one tutoring or meeting Russian's here who might want to learn their grasp of English by meeting friends who s...

Unfortunately it's the main language that the members of Russian community speak. :D I definitely didn't see any forum where Russians speak in English. There is one Russian University in Dubai where you can find some tutor. I could ask if you want. I don't what to insult but why do you think that y...

Thanks, I'll look into this along with input from others who have been helpful on here regarding contacting tutors.

I'm not a Russian but I learned that language in school for 6 years, if you find me suitable, send a message. Thanks GEM. I clicked on your details but a pop up said I had to post 10 topics to send PM's??? Maybe the mod's can assist with this please?! If not then I'm at d a m i e n s @ e m a i l . ...

As I fly in and out of Dubai every few days at different hours I'm not sure a course would be suitable . I'll look into it though and see if it could work with my rosters. I was more looking for a tutor who I could meet up with a few times a week and I have had some people post on here and we'll see...

You put your transfer in, pull your transfer out, IN, OUT, IN OUT and mess your club about. You do the Christiano and get your mate sent off, the money's what it's all about.

What god gave in talent has been wasted on such a selfish self serving premadonna.

From what I observe and I work within an industry with 95% women the first thing is sheer attraction. If a guy is very aesthetically attractive then you should see them falling over themselves to get his attention. For mere mortals who don't look like a GQ model then I guess whatever the guy lacks i...

I seem to attract the attention of Arab women especially Lebanese, Syrian and Egyptian maybe because I look very different to the Arab men they are accustomed to who have dark hair and eye colourings.

Ruggedblond

It's your last line that really caught my attention. Ultimately it's all about self worth. Unfortunately most men only realize their real self worth late , late in life. Good looking people tend to act a little high maintenance. I think it's nice...I like the confidence. I think every man atleast o...

Agreed with the attraction/ attention. No Honey without Money ... How low principles have stooped.

to be honest with you, you wont find your non-player guy on a chat room or on a forum or maybe :P. you are more likely to find him out there in the real world. in your office or probably at a car park or you might bump into him in the lift. so keep on looking you will find him. I totally agree. Whe...

I've just clicked on the 'The crazy drivers in Dubai' thread and was directed to a page which said special access had to be granted. Is this a public forum or a front for the information ministry of Iran?

I return my faulty sunglasses and am told the warranty doesn't cover the hinge. Ok, please show me the warranty. We don't have one. What do you mean? The warranty only covers the lens. Show me where it says that. We don't have it. Confers with colleague. It'll take 3 months. 3 months? So now it has ...

And what constitutes magic words? Do you mean someone has replied to my thread and has said something controversial and now it's been moved?

Ruggedblond

For starters ur thread itself was pretty controversial. It was inevitable that some one would take a dig at locals and their famous driving skills. You mean Like light the match and watch the fire grow kinda thing haha?! Damn, It must have taken all of 3 weeks to get CIA classified status! So seein...

We can edit individual posts, but it takes time so in most cases it's just easier to move/delete the entire thread. Mods have lives too you know. Moving threads from a public forum where lots of people contribute to a part only available to a few defeats the object of my post and the forum as a who...

Ordered to glasses of lemonade today at a resort. Was given two bottles of 7 UP. Asked again for lemonade and was told that what he was serving me was lemonade. I pointed out that it said "7 UP" and was told that when customers asked for lemonade they really meant 7 UP. Ordered 2 glasses ...

Hi All, Perhaps the French Open and Wimbledon has given me the bug but I miss playing tennis and apart from an hour's session at the driving range I've not played Golf since arriving here a few months ago.

I am afraid this will go under the heading"You can't please all of the people all of the time" You might want to take a look at exactly how many threads are locked away before saying such a thing. 17 Threads on the first page of general discussion alone?! Hardly catering to the majority. ...
