Things are surely looking up if df is anything to go by.
Shafique is revealing his interest in money (and considerable knowledge I might add... are you sure that you are not Jewish Shafique:)).
Arnie, the prodigal son, has returned from financial crisis exile with renewed vigor (and humor).

That's 10 'meaningful' posts. Don't know why. My guess is something to do with egos.

you can be eligible for UAE citizenship after 10 years because some women were marrying UAE locals just to get the citizenship rightaway, when you submitt UR passport , u can get another one from ur embassy if ur country law allow dual nationalties, i have seen it with some Americans Thats fair.

Anyone else think that the Rugby 7s has become an overpriced money making venture. I'm fed up with being fed bullshit by the organisers trying to tell me that they have kept prices down... and it is going to be so great etc etc. Tickets are twice what they were a few years back before it started sel...

Relatively speaking yes you are right.

Nice sales pitch. Thursday is free meaning 300 Dhs for 2 days (not 3), although most people can only manage one day, of which Saturday is the preferred choice and costs 230 Dhs for a single day. The organizers will feed you with crap about all of the supplementary entertainment etc etc but no one go...

Megadeath and Maiden have been here already. Slayer may have even been here from memory. Desert Rock organised by the dubai country club was the best regular event for metal bands but I'm not sure what has happened to this now that the country club has died. Metallica, now that would be something.

Sorry my tits are not big eoungh and don't have much swing.

Thats not the only think that will make you go crossed eyed. Choueifat was implicated in bullying accusations which involved sodomy of the victims. Yes, if you want a rigorous academic preparation for university, Choueifat is one to consider. But the workload can be tough and make you go cross-eyed ...

It aint going to be sold out. Unless you believe everything the organisers tell you.

And you are clearly brainwashed by your own hype. I don't care how you got your tickets. But try doing it this year without the booze and see how great it is. This will at least give you an unbiased opinion. It reminds me of a seedy nightclub that was great when you were blind drunk, but other than ...

Depending where you are renting is ALOT lower than that! I have a huge 3 bed, 3 storey villa and pay 96,000 Dhs! I went on the high side of average not to get his hopes up of finding something dirt cheap. Thats a good price. Can I rent a room? Victory Heights cheapest is about 135k, average 200+. I...

I know its crap but the delivery guys is honest and they are always nice on the phone so they can have my money.

Is it just me or has anyone else had a barrage of calls lately from banks offering personal loans with no salary transfer required; and credit cards with everything from Valet parking to wild wadi and ski dubai passes?

I think that generally speaking the skill level of drivers in Dubai is quite high. The main problems lies with the fact that they don't give two hoots about anyone else on the road. Speeding, flashing high beam, not using indicators, keeping to the left instead of the right hand lanes... All of thes...

What about a Canon 500D with 18-200 lens?

Well now here's an update, my mate said the police didn't want to know, refused to believe it had been stolen and refused to take a statement from him for 24 hours, saying he probably left it somewhere or lent it to a friend - WTF!!!! Anyway the Jeep has been spotted in Dubai driving along Al Khail...

Why do locals take great satsifaction from seeing someone going to jail for insulting them instead of just dealing with it themselves? And forcing someone to beg and grovel via an offical apology is not exactly noble either. I would find it much more gratifying to fire back a better insult and leave...

benwj

Yes its presumptious, just as is taking away all blame from the ozzy and making him look like a totally innocent bystander in this whole affair. Some people may have made excuses for the ozzy but no one has said that what he did was OK. He did wrong and only has himself to blame for this. But the r...

Pearl Jam would certainly have many die hard fans in Dubai, but I don't think that they would draw a huge crowd and would probably struggle to fill Media City. However they would be a major drawcard as headliners of a festival such as Desert Rock, which might suit them better. She loved him, She don...

I will let you think about what other options are available, and which is the most honourable, but having the person arrested is the most cowardly. Yeah and like sage said what "honourable" option a duel ? If your an plain clothes police man at an airport and someone messes with you, what...

OK, OK, this is Dubai forums, not Robby G forums.

But since Robby doesn't live here, it is my duty to keep him updated with any propaganda:

Dubai Metro achieved 99% reliability.
House prices went up 2%

I never in my wildest dreams expected this concert to go off the way it did. One of the best concerts I have been to... and I don't even like Rod Stewart. Fantastic night out. The crowd was great and everyone, young and old, were getting into it. Spandau Ballet got everyone fired up, and after a bri...

thats wrong.
they should provide hookers to the gardeners instead to easy the tension.

in iran they close the parks on religious holidays to stop people having fun when they are supposed to be mourning.

Radio 2 has been going downhill since Shroder? left and has hit rock bottom with the idiot's on the morning show these days.
I switched to The Coast also.
Don't know about radio 4. Is it any good?

Maybe when I hit my mid life crisis I might try something like this.
But I'll probably just go out ans buy an Audi TT instead.

benwj

Thanks, It all makes sense now.

Yeah, Tania and Schroder were brilliant. Is Suzie the one that went back to NZ to have a baby? By the looks of it she has decided not to return.
