Imagine if we ate the winner of Miss World!

Believe me, that's not hard for me to imagine.

Then you are eating the wrong bits.

I have been living here for almost a year with my girlfriend with no problems. The biggest pain is that every two months "Mrs Scratcher" has to leave for a visa run. "Mrs Scratcher" also does a very good job as acting as a wife....nagging incesently and generally making my life m...

Miss Lolly, when you post on forums you will always get some unwanted, if humourous, replies. If you are feeling lonely and unhappy then only you can change that. Spend time with friends or go and do something you enjoy. If you like horses go and ride, if you like solitude go to the desert, if you w...

Mrs Scratcher was also okay with her vias run. My 30 days of freedom has just disappeared.

Alternatively, you get a bunch of friends together who have 4x4's, and there are lots of those here, and you do all of the above at a fraction of the cost and in your own time... 8) 8) 8) Knight That's exactly how I spent my Friday. A few friends, a day out bashing the dunes and good BBQ. .....a gr...

Yes, in construction, civil engineering.

Mrs Scratcher's 30 day Dubai entry stamp was confirmed as valid for 60 days at the DNRD office. After nearly 60 days we went to Oman for the weekend via the Hatta border and had no problems exiting UAE. 2 days later we returned to Dubai and Mrs Scratcher recieved a new stamp, this time valid for 60 ...

Wonderful

@ DK

A good and informative reply.....I would have just told him to grow up and take his head out of his arse

I was very surprised how low the percentage was for European / Australian / North american (~3%) and how high the Indian / Pakistani / Bangladeshi (~60%).

Just an observation.

Try the Irish Village. It has an Aussie Day today. Runs all day and only over 21's after sunset.

Are the RTA issueing temporary licences again? I tried to get one for Mrs Scratcher last April but the RTA had stopped issueing them. Mrs Scratcher is from one of the 34(?) favoured nationalities with both domestic and international licences. Anyone here recently obtained a temporary licence? Scratc...

Opps!!! I am glad that you knew that before turning up. Sorry about that.

You can also try the Aussie Legends pub in the Ridges Plaza hotel. When you head from the World Trade Centre area, it's on the roundabout in Satwa.

Civilization 3 had me hooked for years.

Visit visas for the 33 visa on arrival countries are 60 days. Other sorts of visit visas are 30, 60, or 90 days depending on what the visit is for. Tourist visas are 30 days. Mrs Scratcher recently only received a 30 day stamp and she is from one of the 33 countries. Last week we went to the DNRD o...

That was the case in the past, I would go to the DNRD office and they would confirm that the stamp was indeed valid for 60 days......but this time at the DNRD offices it was confirmed to me that only 30 day visit visas are now being used. The options were to pay for a 30 day extension or leave the c...

Ashjgb, Did you go to the Iron Maiden concert last week in Media City? It was really good. The last time I saw Iron Maiden live was back in 1988, which was also good.

I have heard Motorhead are playing this years Desert Rock festival. Should be wortha listen.

Scratcher

Yeah, it's definitely changed. Mrs Scratcher is from one of the 30+ countries and only received a 30day visit visa when she arrived through the airport in late December. The DNRD office confirmed that it was only valid for the 30 days and not 60 days as before. (It can be extended to 60 days at the ...

Yeah, we kew that. Last year Mrs Scratcher had a few 60 day stamps and a one 30 day stamp which was confirmed at the DNRD office as being valid for 60 days. But the 30 day stamps from the end of December are only valid for 30 days.....

...if that makes any sense!!!

How can they "confiscate" the booze if you are stopped buying the stuff by the shop assistant?

Gezza,

How many players have left?

Scratcher

Gezza, I heard that Ade had gone to Suadi, and about Micky's impeding doom. :D I can't really be bothered with that facebook lark. I hope Mrs Gezza and kids are fine and are still liking the new location. Anyway, if there's anyone looking for a freindly kick about, and a few beers after, these are t...

If it was the 6'2" gobby Swede often found in Barasti's parading around in his tennis club attire then it would be calculated easily. He's already 99% braindead.
