Re: Who Ever Thought?

Brilliant VW! I always wondered where Emirates got the money to buy more than a hundred planes in a few years. I would also add that they pay their crews a fraction to what Air France, Luftansa and all other Companies pay theirs. Have you ever seen an Emirati in the Emirates Cabin Crews. Flight cre...

Re: Designer Clothes!

on-line is a different ballgame, and you would expect to pay a lot less for something that you buy blind. 250dhs is the top end on ebay. A factory outlet can charge a little bit more than this but should be at least 30% discount.

Re: DIFFICULT TO PASS THE DRIVING ROAD TEST

Yeah but let's face it, the driving test is not up to standard. The driving test, doesn't test for anything, other than being able to move a car from a-to-b without spilling the policeman's coffee.

Re: DIFFICULT TO PASS THE DRIVING ROAD TEST

In the UAE, are you restricted from overtaking the vehicle in front by overtaking on one side of the vehicle only, or can you overtake the vehicle in front of you on either side? In europe they get very irrate about this. If the UAE police feel it is wrong, I suppose you can be booked for it. But s...

Then it occurs to me: they take out a lot of the butter content to keep the chocolate more solid in the warm climate.

Re: Rise In The Number Of Local Spinsters

It a very pessimistic view but I agree with kanelli. Typically, women can survive without s.e.x, but crave intimacy (love). Men can survive without intimacy, but think of s.e.x. very often. Trying to deny/subdue this is futile. Stephen Fry alluded to this also but managed to get the feminists quite ...

Re: Why ARE So Many British Career Women Converting To Islam

So perhaps one could conclude in general that well-educated middle to upper class white women are searching for many types of meaning in their lives... Can we also conclude that they are single well-educated middle to upper class white women?, which would explain why they are searching for something.
