I don't think there is any filter that will stop the stuff in the water AND maintain the full force of the shower.

Also, the title of your post means a whole bunch of sad single guys will send you messages now.

And buy a car. The taxi service is crap.

That may be wherever you're from, but the situation here is different.

So, did the Hatta run this week. Got a driver, whom has done it many times before. 400AED per trip. Maximum of 3 passengers. Left Dubai at 6pm got to Hatta about 7.30pm. Got exit stamp from UAE - porter cabin that be easily missed, I feel. Then to Oman border filled in entry form, easy.... paid 60A...

with a car, you have to deal with the stress of dodging all the bad, inexperienced drivers on Dubai's roads and struggle to find parking at times.
whereas, with a taxi..once you find one..its somewhat stressfree

The taxi service is crap.

Once a G always a G no matter where the hood be. True dat, brotha. Bashing a head in the UK ...

Sharjah is just now getting ready to start public buses. Expect it to suck. Taxis are expensive and refuse to go to traffic areas, so they probably won'r go to Dubai. Buy a car. Thanx gtmash for this tip :D What is the procedure to buying a car in the UAE? Do I need to put a downpayment? Do u sugge...

The real estate market in Dubai is currently HOT. Anyone buying off-plan property stands to make a lot of money. However, this being Dubai (SLOW-paced life, not fast-paced), delays of 1 or 2 years is common, and you have to go with a reputed developer just to be sure the buidling is actually finishe...

As English Girlie said (psst, trust the girls to know this things eh), GTR is the racing version hence faster than the GTI. I vaguely remember my neighbour here drives one but cant be sure. Maybe GTR is not legal in this country. The difference between the GTi and the GTR is the stickers. Stickers ...

Got to be kidding me. Come on, there's no single Tucson owner here? It's like I see them almost every 5 minutes when traveling on SZR going/from work. It's one of most popular compact SUV around here (and in some other countries). I think I'm gonna make some flyers and slip it on each Tucson parked...

I guess AD outshone magical Dubai's Shakira concert?

I read somewhere that Emirates Today will change to a business newspaper with "24/7" in the title. I guess its done.

Is this an AMG publication? It sure read like one. I read somewhere that Emirates Today will change to a business newspaper with "24/7" in the title. I guess its done. Explains why (no bad news in the ) Emirates Today didn't up and this did. It's basically a ploy to get higher ad rates. N...

Finally here, temporarily staying at the Golden Sands. pleasantly surprised with the December weather-- pretty good! Hated waiting on a cab. The first cab dropped me off 3kms from pick up because apparently his tire is getting soft-- dunno how he managed to check.. Wow, these drivers are amazingly ...

the price they charged was little too high dont you think?

I guess you shouldn't go if you feel that way. I felt the same as you, so I didn't go. Hehe.

That could be your kid, for all we know.

I already had a cable modem thru etisalat, so I added a Linksys wireless router. Setup is a beach though, if your main PC is win xp and your laptop is Vista.

I own a place at IC. I like it even tho I don't live there. Persia is away from the smelly sewage plant. But the place is probably beneath you, considering a few flats are taken up by sharing "bachelors." Some of the buildings are more upscale. The only places there with covered parking/gy...

Day 2 of Business 24/7 and I think I will basically give up on this as it is 100% propaganda. Starting with the huge, red, bold 16% growth on the front, through to articles on the first 5 pages which speak of nothing but how fantastically mightily great investing in Dubai, the UAE and the GCC is......

Thanks You can donate them to Feline Friends http://www.felinefriendsuae.com/whatis.htm Tjey will sell them to raise funds for the upkeep of the shelter (all volunteers and donations). p.s. If the clothes are very v...

Do people make a big deal when George Clooney is in... New York? Los Angeles? Tokyo? London? Paris? Amsterdam? Sydney? Chicago? No they don't. So Dubai.... don't make a big deal about George Clooney being here, it only shows your true class. He is here? So is Jason E. Harris, I saw him this morning...

Funny how much money you guys blow on the basics.

I dunno who the heck Jason E. Harris is either :? Yes I noticed too, dubai is too obsessed with personalities. Tiger even has his own Woods here. I wouldn't be surprised then if they build a Clooney Resort, or Clooney Ranches soon. True. And I don't read the gossip rags, so I don't really know ever...

Dubai is way tooo normal. People are bored here, they get excited when something happens. /quote] True, Have you seen Emirates tonight...Its like watching an episode of emmerdale farm...NOTHING EVER HAPPENS. SO BLOODY BORING!!!!! :shock: What's Emirates Tonight? Is it on One TV? I once caught a par...

There is a fee involved but this varies, seems a visitor renewal is 500dhs whereas a residence visa is quoted previously as 10000 dhs Employer pays for residence visa. Even if you get a residence "investor" visa from a property developer, they still don't ask for 10k in fees from individu...

Dubai owns Madame Tussauds? Haha! Bring that idol factory here then!

You just revealed your age.

Be careful of the roaming death squads though. They ride camels and hunt Americans for beheading.
