gezza the reason why ibuprofen is hard to get is because for colds and painkillers it is often combined with codine and this is a banned substance in Dubai although perfectly legal in UK If you are desperate for them, i can bring you over a bundle (without the codine obviously) next time i am over

arniegang

I believe your bags will be searched no matter what drugs you bring in bulk. My relatives had drugs thrown away by customs in front of them. There is no restrictions on analgesics as long as they dont contain banned substances like codine. So asprin, paracetemol and ibuprofen are fine in any quantity

I know of a new hole in the wall within Dubai Emirate found by another Forumer here and a dead easy 40min drive and no traffic. If anyone wants details please pm me.

I just wish you could get decent aspirin in Dubai... not the kind that really fizzes... not the crap they pass off here. No probs, i'll bring some over for you :wink: Yeah I meant I want the kind that really does fizz. not the non-fizzy crap you find here. The best aspirin I ever got was in Paris.....

Hi, I am looking to find out if it would be possible to get an apartment for my family of 3 (a small baby included) close to Dubai Internet City for about 7000AED per month for 3 months? The best case scenario would be furnished and within walking distance. One more question - when it is listed 1 B...

2 weeks ago when we flew into AD, the english guy in front of me at passport control was told to wait. In queue for at least 5 mins when i said "whats goin on?", he said "dunno but this is my 4th visa run this year". When the chap came back he told the english guy to "go to ...

arniegang

I had no idea who he was or what he does, but the important bit was that he was pulled i assume for 4 visa runs

mmmmmmmmm remind me was there not someone called Sadam Hussain who one day thought, "who can i beat the crap out of today? , we did not obliterate Iran so i am bored" long pause for thought..................................... "Eureka" thought Sadam "I know, we will beat the...

try posting a poll in Kuwait or poll the Kurds or maybe ask the Iranians Shaf.

Also everything happening there is being reported now, whereas previously, under Saddams regime, many 000's went missing and never heard of again (compliments of the Republican Guard)

arniegang

during Sadams regin there were no sucide bombings there were no sunis vs shias clashes. at that time there was control in Iraq and he could have only controlled Iraq with an Iron Fist which he did. Translates: Iron Fist = just gas tens of 000's Control = Off you go to the torture chamber my guards ...

mmmmmmmmm in UK we also use flashing orange, this allows us to proceed or turn as long as there is no obstruction, in effect proceed only with caution or stop/give way.

Could this be a similar scenareo?

all these discussions have left me slightly confused... ;) Lemme ask a simple question I'm a non muslim resident expat in dubai. I do not have liquor permit. If i buy 4 ltrs of alcohol at the airport duty free, am i legally allowed to keep & consume the liquor at my home in dubai? wooof!! cheer...

If you drive into any Emarat station with an express wash just drive up and ask, they will put in the concentrate and fill your washer bottle with water. The service is free all you pay is for the sachet of concentrate.

Happy New Year

As you are 4 hours in front of us, you should all be talking to the pixies by the time we hit midnight

Have a good one

arniegang

It is situations/post like this that make's DF a worthwhile place despite all the bickering.

Thank you all especially you Concs, for helping this man.

And a prosperous new year to you Stoned P.

Ian's suggestion to beat the traffic is spot on. Far better his way than use the Soufah Road.

arniegang

Jeez its getting as bad as UK, last year a female driver got prosecuted for eating a Snickers whilst stoped at a red light. Here its called "undue care and attention" and the basis of the prosecution was she did not have both her hands on the steering wheel and was therefore not deemed to ...

You are not being simplistic Shaf, i think flawed and biased is a better description. For example. The trade embargo on Iraq was exactly that. Medical supplies and other "essentials" were allowed in. But how you put your point made it seem that it was the fault of the west. All Saddam had ...

arniegang

Totally agree Ian. After my text from Salik telling me i was down to 16 Dhs, i immediately recharged at Emarat. It took 4 days to process and credit my account. They havent even got an efficient payment "on line" system at gas stations. A form in duplicate is filled in and only cash is acc...

It is funny. Even I didnt know that I know..... Let me finish with this note that americans & Brits have to apologise to the rest of the world for all this terror, for all the lies which came from them and for making this world an unbreathable stinking place for humans If they want to stand tal...
