I have to say i admire your idea and wish you every sucess with it. All i can help you with is a little bit of knowledge i have picked up. I am no expert so please dont take my comments or observations as "gospel". Firstly i happen to know well the man and company that is currently negotiating the c...

I can see the logic in the ball/fun room Gabs, for height being of a health and safety issue, in very tall older kids mixing with small 2/3 year olds. My point is about at what price does it constitute being a child. Put this way for example, Airlines charge child prices up to age 11. The height or ...

It's really working great for us. For the price of having 3 indians sitting there doing nothing all day, we have just one emirati - that's efficiency. wut r u sayin? 1 emirati is much more expensive than 3 indians! well... it do saves space, electricity, water, sugar and tea though so I guess its e...

Thats a very good question Lou, which i infact tried for the answer a few weeks ago without much sucess :shock: :shock: I am in a similar position with my wife ie she can't drive my car. However i am going to get her a "temp" DL and then i am going to see wot the insurance issue is, i will let you k...

Any idea as too dog and hampster car insurance position Fayz?

I agree Maaad looks a good site and as you say some interesting stuff

eeeeeeekkkkkkkkk i got 12

i admit i guessed a few and didnt think i would score that well.

What a bunch of crappy questions - especially the one about the ration of brits to scotts and welsh. I mean what relevance that got to anything.

Shaf I hate to challenge your thoughts and opinions. When you quote things like the Geneva Convention, you or anyone else should try to put this in context, and created a balanced discussion. Yes i think it is disgraceful that people are treated like that, but when you bring in things like the GC in...

Choc - war is ugly, no doubt. However, we have the Geneva conventions (which the US flouts with Guantanamo Bay). What makes this conflict a little different is that many think it was illegal and unnecessary and that the US and allied forces went in under a banner of 'liberation' and freedom. Some l...

The WHO said that sanctions against Iraq before the invasion killed over 500,000 Iraqi children under 5.

Shaf i consider this sort of example/comment to be a bit of a cheap shot with the greastest of respect.

£40 k is roughly equiv to 20,000'ish Dhms a month. Without knowing what sort of package is available, it would be difficult for those in the know to comment really. The issue of accomodation and benefits is critical in the equation. If you take tax and NI out of the equation then the salary like for...

Sorry Arnie, cant say I got too much out of your previous message.... altho not sure if it was exactly the same quesiton.... maybe it was... :? Well, how do you go about getting a temp driving licence then?? Do you have to have a residents visa to get one? Does the cat's photo for the driving licen...

No Liban you are wrong, i dont dispute Shafs' comment or dispute the figures. I merely think it was a cheap shot because of its one sided implication. The statement seeks to aportion blame purely on the basis of the "blockade" authorised by the UN. I think its unfair within a discussion to slip in s...

Shaf i havent addressed all you point for which i apologise. "My other opinion and thought is that these pictures portray to the world the similarities between the 'liberators' and those who they over-threw. Are you challenging this thought?" Yes i woulld like to challenge this point if i may. Again...

By open frank discussion, we should seek to be empowered and reach a level of understanding that benefits us all.

One line quips and threatening abusive language does nothing to achieve this.

is there a prize?

Fair point choco

So what we need to suggest is any child under say under 12, who is above 1.1m they go in on their knees

And all dwarfs get child rates obviously.

Congrats 175

Go for it

Lou Just make sure you apply for the correct type of Temp DL for your friend. There is a 6 month work related DL and a 6 month DL for those on visit visa's. All the info is on here for you Lou http://www.dubaipolice.gov.ae/dp/english/e_services.jsp?Page=contents.jsp&Id=2053&num2=INF&main...

Arnie- you promished no more teashing!

The majority of your facts are indisputable Shaf and would be unreasonable for anyone to challenge them. However, i feel you use other examples to give clarity and underpin those facts, when the issues are at best unrelated, and have a tendancy to portray a slight bias. Shaf, have you ever run for P...

Agreed K

Intimacy = Liban

mmmmmmmmmmm i wonder ?
