Yep, that is very sad. I have a friend who loves her pet parrots and she isnt going to "destroy" them. Really crazy the attitude of these people!

Try Nbar at Palm Strip Jumeirah.. supposed to be nice place..

Hi, Your question is very vague. The answer totally depends on what kind of lifestyle you want to lead: average, luxurious, ultra lux. The cool thing about dubai is that you can lead whatever type of lifestyle you want (meaning you can be cheap or lavishly spend). For getting a job, probably first s...

Yikes, had know idea about this stamping blunder! What a pain!! Well, I use the egate card anyways, but i will let other people know to check their stamps carefully from now!

You need to click on the classifieds section on the websites once you are there... Word of advice though. I would stay away from buying a used car in the UAE. People drive their cars hard and rough, and in the end you will be paying though your nose for repairs and problems.. Have a few friends who ...

Thanks for the info. That is cheap and hopefully they are dependable. Do the maids there clean your house and keep care of your children for $1000 per month? Do we sponsor her as well? what is this cost? Hi, Actually you can get a full service maid for about Dhs 800 -1200 (since you are giving them...

yeah, but do you really think I can buy a cheap new car for only 6 months...i would lose to much when I sell it after 6 months... Hi, Agreed. Perhaps a better alternative would be to rent a car on a long term basis for six months. You can get a pretty nice deal and you dont have to worry about main...

It will be may be the best if somebody can give me 6000,- for renting... For a used car I can get a credit or somethig like this an dpay it back when I resell the car...but the money for renting is gone...

Ok with regard to clubs and door policies, you have to remember that clubs and bars are also businesses, their aim is to make money. The best way for them to cash in obviously is over the bar, now having observed this for a fact and spoken to many door staff, the western expats as we all know are d...

Try Greece and its many islands.. absolutely amazing.. you wont be disappointed..

I can put you in touch with a good travel agency there if you'd like..

In Canada we are taxed to a point where even after you croak the government keeps taxing you... Is it worth it moving to a tax haven? YES!!!!!! Hell even if I take a pay drop, its still better than my after tax pay and Dubai is not that expensive compared to Canada (on par in general).... I can't w...

What will happen when I am in a non-business environment? Many thanks for any help or advice. Jeremy This will happen: "ew! Dubai is full of sleaze bags! I got chatted up by at least four highly minging indians and one of them even followed me home! I'm scared now!" Taken off a posting I came acros...

Hi, Just had another one of those fcked up drivers chewing at me today. What the hell is one expected to do in such situations. I am talking about the driver behind you who flashes his lights at you and almost knocks you from behind even though you are driving at the max permisable speed. What is o...

It would be better to just rent a hotel apartement in Bur Dubai, you can get decent long term rates for those apartments with more flexible payment options.. of course, depends on availability at the time you are arriving here...

Tsunamis, Hurricanes, Earthquakes! The last year has been a disaster for our planet, it's been battered in every possible way and hundrds of thousands of lives have been lost. Are we being told something? Maybe we should take care of our 'home' and each other better. Some say that it is nature/God'...

Hi guys, I am new to Dubai, just arrived few weeks before and I just found out that I am pregnant. I don’t think I am in a position to have a baby now. What options do I have?

[quote="fayz"]Actually D-unit you bring up a great point, I don’t know the answer but am curious as well. What would happen if you were traveling in the UAE had some stomach aches or something and went to the doctor and it turned out you were pregnant? Hmmm I’ve also wondered what would ha...
