Same quality are the telephone lines, doesn't matter if landline or mobile. During calls to Germany I sometimes hear lots of other people talking in my line and mobile connections are often disconnected without any reason. Is that standard? Cheers, Ben I'm lucky enough that my internet connection i...

Oh, before I forget, thats a hell of a precise salary you are getting! HAHAHAHAHA i was thinking the same thing i think you should be able to negotiate it up to 4673 lol. Seriously though are you getting paid in a different currency? if you are and it isn't US you may have to factor in future excha...

the topic was moved to the fight club, i'm not sure if it is still on or not but if you request access to fight club you can see the current status.

hahahhaha thanks for keeping an eye out for me.

Congrats man, good on yeh

I'm at the office and MSN seems to be working fine for me here but if it isn't working for you may wish to try this site: http://www.e-messenger.net/ This allows you an alternative way to access MSN when companies block it, I've used it before at companies that don't allow MSN, works well although i...

I heard about this a couple weeks back when I was out with some local friends, they told me who it is.

I ain't gonna tell yah though, nah nah nah nah, i know something choco doesn't

3. I will spend a lot of time in Riyadh. I've read several posts claiming security issues ... how true is this? Should this be a major issue for me? I don't think it's an issue for Canadians. As far as I know, they are well respected well received world wide :-) I know a Canadian working in Riyadh ...

I like the Patrol as well but I would add the Toyota Fortuner to your list, Apparently new someone told me they are mid '80s so if you can find one second hand it should be within your budget. I like the look of 'em

Outside? Haha... now that's gotta be a first... Talk about cutting corners! Tint can fade on the inside too - mostly cheap Taiwanese stuff. Most 'cheap' American tinting will still be metal based so shouldn't turn even after a few years. Still a nice price there Fayz. Thanks, I should add one cavea...

check this site out, www.autodealer.ae you can do an advanced search to identify your budget,

You're welcome

Not my bag but to each their own...
Dating agencies are illegal here but there is something called Table for Six in Dubai, i'm pretty sure that is as close as you're going to get.

I loved watching that, thanks for the post.

Vegamite you can keep but tim tams ROCK!!! I've become addicted.

Yes i would like to know where the Dubai Male's shelter is.

My 2 fils, I was kinda in the same boat, I had a new car in Canada, unlike Liban I did not end up shipping it, for me it was reasoning, like my car does not exist here so parts would be difficult to source and for the ~4k CDN to ship (from Calgary) i felt i could just buy a cheap/disposable car here...

6. you'll pay a duty tax of ~4% on the value As for the value. You pretty much tell them what you would think it to be worth... Lets just say that I asked they make mine worth 25% of what the market value is.... I paid nearly nothing in duty... 8) it is a rebadged Daewoo, it depreciated by 75% duri...

kanelli wrote:The car we bought here would cost at least 10,000 CAD more if we bought it in Canada - so for those of you who didn't already buy a car just before moving to Dubai - buy your car here.

No GST, No PST, alot of pluses to buying a car here

Liban, you're saying exactly what I am implying. 0% interest often means based fees are built into the price - whether at point of purchase or through agreement. Amounts paid from the retailer to creditors have in fact already been passed onto the consumers - yourself excluded, as you know how the ...

"Terry Fox run to be held in AD on feb 17. The run will start from Shereton AD resort and towers.."

Kewl, thanks, i'll have to check that out.

also to add to what Kanelli said, there is big business in importing fixed high end write offs here, there are lots of good opportunities but also lots of sh1t, you need to be careful.

M5's are great, good choice.

Well it looks like the other event attempts seem to be at a standstill so I’m going to try to organize one. (if this is not the case I apologize for stepping on any toes) First I’d like to ask that this topic remain focused on meeting up. This means NO attacks on people, their ideas or social/religi...

Wow that is a great rate, Mabrook. Yes you are way better of at 4.95/reducing balance then with 3 non-reducing.

Maaad, I agree but what can I say I guess I’m gluten for punishment.
