maybe some of the old guard are sick of reading the crap being posted in here. And hey even we used to post the same crap too, its just a case of been there, done it got the t-shirt. And life moves on you know, and for the record, most of the old guard actually are "real friends" having m...

You are so Brit! FYI...I just emailed in sick in case you are wondering why I am up this late! Not like Sagey, up before the birds.

Trust me, no jury needed! Chatting to an "old guard" on MSN actually is why I am still here!

Wow, both Fayz and Keithl on the same day. As I am up for BIZ overseas, could not resist posting. Keith, Concs is good saw him a few weeks ago. Fayz, I think we need a new squash club. But on topic, Chocs is right. Mirdif is a goldmine as far as value. I moved here in June and reduced my cost of liv...

HA! You owe me an email dude.

and last time I looked, running up a credit card was more a national sport (hopefully in the Olympics 2020 Dubai yeeeah) than a criminal offence. Love IT! Anyhoozles...not to pick on Chocs, but I think the folks here have it pretty much bang-on. Let us not forget those of us that come from "fr...

Thta's all very well and good DD, but still not one of you has given me a reasonable and logical explaination as to why someone I know has received travel bans! Hey Chocs. Not pooping on you. But I am guessing: 1. They are lying 2. They are actually charged with another crime and not telling you 3....

I've not heard it from the person themselves, but I heard it from their sponsor because he is a good friend of mine, and that is what the loan company said they were going to seek. So essentially a 3-4 combo as per my previous post. I would not sweat it, seriously. If the person is out of the count...

I agree Chocs that it needs to be sorted. I was astounded when I got here and essentially had people coming to my office to sell me credit cards, loans, you name it. As a new arrival in a country, this was crazy to me. I had borrowed my year's rent in advance via personal loan (with additional flash...

This very true. However, take for example the UK, the take out a car loan/mortgage/credit cards etc then every month you also pay a small insurance policy, so that if you become unemployed, the bank covers the payments for you, until you can start the repayments again. that's what i said, not only ...

I think we are going to pull the pin in the coming year. I'd go sooner, but the Mrs. has obligations for a few months. I am employed, but just had enough. None of my friends have left, but all my family will be gone in a couple of months. Dubai has been an experience, and perhaps the fastest years o...

Hey all. This is just an FYI. As some of you here know, I have been through H in an H cart the past year here. XTY knows the drill, as do a few others. Anyhoo, I have been in a legal battle to get the money owed to me from my previous jagoff employer. The battle has been long and has sucked hard but...

Well HELLLLLLLOOOOOOOO! I haven't posted here in ages, but happened to peruse the forum and see the hot debates of late! If I can pipe up for a second.....yes, Ian and I are excellent friends, and I can assure you that neither he nor I have anything to do with this XPT character. As far as Concord, ...

dubaidog

I haven't figured out the quote function yet. Just wanted to say that, Arnie, as far as the Ballbraker thing goes, I have no clue. I'm not sure how I would have confirmed that to you seeing as I never knew what Conc's other personalities are. I DO recall a post I did somewhere in the past saying to ...

Life is pretty much the same as it was a year ago. Still battling CSI if you can believe that. I am still around, just don't post due to the last witch hunt.

I'm liking the smokedoggy and the desertdouche^^^^ Gave me a chuckle for the tell-me-what's-on-your-mind...no, REALLY! post

I, too, have paid this fee since arriving. At the height of the market it was quite a chunk of change, still is actually. In reality, it is a council tax, so no biggie. Where I live there are no sidewalks or streetlights, etc. but the rubbish skips get emptied daily (a year living here and I have ne...

Been cruising the forum of late. Seems there is only about 8-10 frequent posters. Back in "the day" this place was a bevvy of activity. Now that I have an AWESOME vpn I can actually log in and read pm's and post. I blame/love the posters of olde that advised me moving here. Thought I would...

Hey DD, No change in the stocking status of the bar, always welcome m8, I will be back from China on the 11th, PM me. Cool. It has been waaaay too long. We're living under the flight path still, but a catch-up would be great. I'm always out at that end of town still. Well I nicked the song from you...

I skimmed, but not not read the whole thread "question to MCL", but I think this is somewhat related. I know there are many Dubai lovers on the forum and in the country in general, but the following are my observations. Expats are ANYONE that is a resident here, but not a National. After t...

So that means that I am the original DD still? Yesssssssss. Finally win one in Dubai. DD2....was always a bit bent outta shape that my abbreviation was assigned to you, may I suggest DDS in the future?

1 problem is people in service industries are either too stupid or too intimidated or both. A guy at a service station calls the cleaner "animal" for asking him if he could move his car a bit, the cleaner just doesnt react. That's my point: the service industry people are used to taking c...

see they way i see it, if everybody just stops falling preying to the clever marketing tactics of various corps, you really can live without useless things, for example some people have a strange habit of changing their phones every month, or cars every few months , WHY ? its most probably just SHO...

dubaidog

Zubs, I know the people you are talking about. I just figured it was directed at me seeing as the comment was on a thread I started about my particular situation. I am also of the belief that if you can afford it, why not? You can't take it with you when you go!

dubaidog

Sorry you got ripped, Benwj. I have never been to the sevens for the reasons you describe. Question for you guys: I don't follow Rugby and Cricket is just way too boring to watch. Am I white or not? People tell me I am a honkey, but I don't see colour, so I just believe them. I am pretty sure the Sa...

Waitaminute....I'm French! Is that all it takes? You don't even want to know my last name! I'd put it up here, but fear it might get BM all hot 'n bothered!
