Chocco, afraid to say, but quite a fair few of the 'real men' you refer to are cart tarts but that's not to say Aussie Legends is fagsville everynight. When they have the good sports events on, the atmo is pretty good.

Pubs don't provide housing and transport but the beer sounds good though!

Agreed, definitely not all. Some come down to Satwa/Safa park to play bball and of the ones I've met there, at crew towers and the like I'd say you'd still have a chance with 30-40% of them - if they're not already taken.

If you want a 99% fag ratio cabin crew try Qantas - the spirit of Australia.

Most Car financing is 0% now adays (well a year ago) for new cars so I'm not sure i agree with XRW on cheaper financing here, here if you shop around it is 3.75% and NOT on a reducing balance, Check the loan structure. It might not be called interest but as with everything else in this world, nothi...

Fuddruckers.

Liban, you're saying exactly what I am implying. 0% interest often means based fees are built into the price - whether at point of purchase or through agreement. Amounts paid from the retailer to creditors have in fact already been passed onto the consumers - yourself excluded, as you know how the g...

Add to Kanelli and Fayz, theres people here that buy cars just to see what they are like and after a month or so they flog it off and get something else. My friend's been through a fair whack of cars in the past 7 months I've known him including Carrera turbo (which he still has), Range Rover sports...

Fayz, habibi, no worries - 4.95%. I end up paying very little interest over the life of this loan as compared to 3% of initial principal over life of loan.

Use the search function buddy, this was covered plenty of times. But in short you'll need a copy of your residence visa and a salary letter when applying for credit here. They don't go so far as to contact your home country to verify credit ratings etc.

fitting extra gears, double clutchs, fittin cams & turbos and heather installation & designs..they do it for low estimates I got a laugh out of this eh... How exactly do you fit an extra gear/s? Or when for that matter did a 'double clutch' transform from a driving manuevoir into a physical...

[quote="hosrom_951"]the only thing i did notice is that it shoots black smoke from the tail pipe like a diesel truck once you hit full boost, indicating an extremely rich mixture.quote] Umm... it is the norm to provide a rich mixture on load, especially in this sort of weather condition an...

Whether your company will fork out for the transport depends on your company's policies and flexibility. Part of my relocation involved a 20ft container - basically what ever I could fit in there. However, deciding to keep my house back in Oz meant I only had about 13 boxes shipped here - about 5% o...

The company I work for is currently looking to hire junior PR officers - Emiratis preferred, as part of our localization strategy. Its not as cushy as a bank job (means u have to work for your keep) but its a start and gets you recognized experience from an O&G MNC. PM me with your contact detai...

btw i used to go to an australian pub in washington that would make burgers with an egg and pinneaple on them. i know it sounds weird and gross but it was really yummy !!! anyone know of any place in dubai i can get that ? Sounds like an Aussie Burger (with beetroot) from Hungry Jacks (Burger King)...

richmc: so you're saying u're not gay maite?

In anycase, doesn't sound like you're speaking from experience with Emirates aircrew though.

Too right cobba!

Strewth, when did us blokes become sheilas?

Better grade petrol?

You mean snow...

Ever since MOE opened up that's very true. Although its handy when you don't fancy lining up for hours to buy groceries.

Maaad, you make it urself!

forget a crosswalk, i've never seen a person stop at a stop sign, local or expat, white or brown. Fayz, I tried giving pedestrians way at zebra crossings, as its the done thing anywhere else in the world, and you get beeped the fark out of from ppl behind when you do that here. Nowadays I only do i...

Some things are - detergent and some imported items. But 'fresh' produce are on par - bread, milk, fruits and veggies. I live between the two of them so depending on which day I feel like doing my shopping I'll alternate between the two. But as a matter of convenience going down to Geant to get some...

I'd like to see you tackle a ski slope made of ice

Same dude, I live in Dubai Marina 2nd Development. So near that little slip road between the main interchange being refurbished and the Battuta interchange.

That'll be a lot funnier if you start reading his posts in the politics and culture forums

Now I'm struggling whether you're making a pro or con argument here Fayz.

Things like this says a lot (or very little) of a business when they need to spam a forum about their services.

Haha... Small world eh.

You might be lucky, but I doubt it.
