No can do, ironically just sold a friends Jeep last week. New law buyer and seller have to be physically present The Bill of sale or Mubaya as it is know is the only other way as DK said it and there are a few authorised car dealers located in the aweer used car complex that do this. They charge a ...

Well, it ain't sold till the cash is in hand. Some pics

Doesn't look like there was much offroad on the offroad jeep :D Anyways JK's not my thing, a TJ maybe even a YJ but not a JK. Thanks anyway mate. Year, spec, milage, asking. I'll see if anyone from our offroading community is looking for one. Just a rough estimate gauge though friend sold a 07 with...

Have not seen it. Used use the iPhone app daily whilst on the throne, but that has stopped working as well!

The throne or the iPhone???

Haha. The throne works no problem.

Al Khail gate is like International City, "Midtown". I stumbled in there a few weeks back. It is actually advertised as a bachelor/worker accommodation. It is cheap because it is a total dump with bad access. Yes, it is new, but full of abandoned cars and mud puddles(?) Don't even bother p...

With all due respect, maybe you just need more practice? Driving is a contact sport here as you know. When I drive, I am not concerned about my skill, but of others around me. Things are better on the roads here, but the last thing I (or anyone else) needs on the roads is an unskilled driver with no...

Geez, Bora. Drew WAS referring to an underage person. Guess he is a kiddie-fiddler judging by his post?

HAHA.

Bang-on Herve. They were driving the Rolls in the race whilst wearing national dress in some attempt to improve Arab relations. All I could think about was Jamie Farr and Ricardo Montalban in Cannonball Run. Now I have to see that movie again.

Damn, a guy steps out for the afternoon to check on the new flat and all heck breaks loose!

Damn, a guy steps out for the afternoon to check on the new flat and all heck breaks loose! A few minutes reading can catch you up. How did it go with the flat? Went good, actually, thanks for asking. Just popped by to have a look that all was good and grab the key card thingy. Too busy today to ge...

I think TJ is on to something with regards to body "acids". The Mrs. and I have rings from the same establishment here. Her ring yellows after a few months, mine never has. Both of these rings are originally yellow gold, but then electro-plated with white gold. Essentially, I would guess t...

AGAIN! A dude steps out for five frickin minutes to email the landlord about a small kitchen fire, and the place goes to p00p. I really must log in more often. I'm lost now. BM and DD2 (I am DD, c'mon peeps) are in a flame war now? All the ladies are friends now? Last I saw it was all "good mor...

srsly?

DF, solving the world's random problems in the blink of an eye!

DD (i think I have made the difference between you and our resident taxi driver LOL) you need to follow the advice of the other famous Canadian 'I don't want to fall asleep, I don't want to miss a thing' or words to that effect. Never mind emailing your LL, he will be used to you setting the place ...

So Mrs. DD and I were all ready to move to our "ghetto in the sky" over in JBR this weekend when we found out the hard way that there are rules that are beyond the laws of the land, rules the Supreme Court of the UAE cannot touch. I am guessing even the UN is powerless against the power th...

@motion...they are computers and controllers for multiple clients, and are very small form-factor units @ BM...you are right about the cops. These guys were tops though, good English and had a bit of a snigger at the security guys. My only other cop experience was when I was stopped in Satwa for doi...

You sure, Champ? Got a link? I would do this at every meal and give it to the server.

As I mentioned in another thread, I, too had a couple of positive experiences in the past year. I had a run-in with little brats driving their quads down the paths in Arabian Ranches, but took no action other than to discuss with the dad. I never saw those quads again. I see the 'tards driving their...

Anyone know what the rules are for being a prince? This dude's Grandfather is/was the King's brother. I know there are a butt load (pun intended) of Saudi Princes, but what are the rules? Any loose relation to the big man counts? In the UK, that would your title be if your Grandpa was Queen Liz's bro?

Any chance we can have your old signature back? I like that one. Your current one brings back painful memories of a childhood incident. Thanks man!

No I went to Catholic school at the dawn of the computer age. One of the nuns beat me with the keyboard from a Commodore Vic 20 then whipped me with a MIDI cable. PLeeeeeease, I beg of you. I still have the scars.

WoW two sentences in a row and no mention of the Mrs? Has to be a new record for the Dawgg. :D :D I mention her when it is relative. As some on this forum know, she works way harder than she should. Way harder than me I might add. We do most things as a partnership, so I think she deserves a mentio...

I just noticed, I've been a member of DF for 3 years longer than BM, yet she has waaaaay more posts than me. Other than my 2 year absence, I've been a regular poster here. Shizza. Guess I better step up my game and pick up a flamethrower with someone. Most of my flames have been via PM over the year...

What would you do if you had 83K AED in cash that was stashed in, say one of those "wine-in-box...boxes" and your wife decided to clean the house for the first time in her life? You just might have emptied the wine out of said "box-wine" but left it on the counter and your lovely...

DD2, as I understand it, you are a desert tour guide? Do you have access to a plot and a shovel?

Well now I suppose those of us that know Mrs DD are sowrn to secrecy and hope it doesn't come out at a drunken soiree one night. Somethings DD my dear you really do need to keep to yourself. I wouldn't tell Mrs DD, she'll only beat herself up over it. Lessons learned - the hard way, and don't keep ...

Probably good advice, TJ.
