Ah yes, I forgot that bit ...

And is using skype to skype (or skype to phone) something to be concerned about? This topic seems to indicate yes...

Sharewadi you should rephrase Perhaps that explains better how Muslims feel when they see Western behaviour in terms of dress codes and fun. to read Perhaps that explains better how Westerners feel when they see Muslims behaviour in terms of dress codes and fun.

Which bit of my post didnt you agree with ?? :lol: Er nothing then :oops: . I answered the wrong question. We both answered "how much would it cost monthly" but I misinterpreted that as "how much would I have to pay" and gave yearly figures because it's more common to pay yearly...

With a wife, I would like to think that the 'sleeping with everyone' part would automatically become redundant because they are in a loving and serious monogomous relationship, That's a tolerance limit for you then - I mean if you're wife was unfaithful (isn't the statistic something like 30% of wo...

There's also Dubai Center for Special Needs (I'm not sure if that's the correct name). At least, there was a few years ago. Not sure if it catered to expat children though. Most mainstream schools won't or will be reluctant to register special needs students. That's not to say it's impossible - I am...

Hello all, can anyone give me some advice on buying on old car ? Don't. My advice is to use the money you would have spent on an old banger as the deposit on a newer car and get a loan for the rest. There's a good chance the loan repayments will probably work out to about the same as the maintenanc...

Although you are likely right this makes no sense to me. It is like the landlord mafia combines forces and says if no one lowers prices we'll all make money in the future. I presume that's exactly what happened. Dribbling on a bit to todays situation... As a renter, I'm happy to see a rent restrict...

How'bout SW and Arnie thinking 1000 times (but not writing a thing) "I will not waste the other forum members' time cutting and pasting silly stuff" OK :mrgreen: :mrgreen: BTW arniegang, you forgot the full stop. I think you should do it again :)... I will not waste the other forum member...

Oh wait, did you say 1000x Concord ?

Clarendon Parker, IQ selection, maybe BBB, SOS. There's more - look in the Gulf News appointments section.

Here's a couple, don't know if that's what you mean...

There's one more I've seen in computer shops - software to install on your PDA but I can't remember the name and can't find it now.

you could get hold of copies of say the federal law on labour and federal company laws from most of the book shops for a crash course before your interview. I've seen it online too, or bits of it anyway. Number 8 is the one that seems to be most relevant to employment contracts. UAE government has ...

Oh dear. That sounds like a very difficult situation for you both :(. Going back to your original question, who is looking for permission to die? You or your mother? And at what level of authority would you or your mother accept that permission if it was given? I mean, if I gave you permission would...

Ah, now I'm confused. Is that two different people with a similar issue ?

another one you can look at is "Al Noor" (think it means "the brightness" although my arabic is very rusty). http://www.alnooruae.org alnoor00@emirates.net.ae Ah, that's the one I was thinking about when I said Dubai Center for Special Needs. I'm not really with it today :oops: ...

There is nothing anti Christian about saying Hitler was a Christian..since he practised the religion of the Christians.

Iftikhar Ali wrote:In the past 2 years the price of these apartments has increased a LOT.

That's what would scare me about buying a Greens apartment now.

I would say Asteco, Better Home, Landmark are reasonable. I've dealt with them and been happy enough.

Otherwise look in the Gulf News classifieds or some of the other websites people have mentioned here.

That's life I'm afraid!! Sounds like France - some nationals there are so rude to "foreigners". To be honest, you get it everywhere in the world. Foreigners will always be second-class citizens compared to the locals. That is not necessarily true. And you're not understanding my point eit...

You know, prices less than 8USD per year are very strange. Belive me or not, as a person who has been years in this business, those companies who re-sell domains very cheap, will cause problems if you decide to transfer your domain. They will ask much more money at that time. Also, most of them, gi...

Yes, what fayz said is quite right. Manual is better for the "driving experience" but auto is going to be a lot less frustrating in dubai traffic jams. And there's very few places to enjoy a drive like you would on some European mountain road or a fun UK B road. Most would say manual is be...

Qualifications.

Don't ever recall having had to show my birth certificate anywhere.

Marriage certificate I don't know. I'd guess no if it's from UK.

Try phoning British Embassy/Consulate here in Dubai.
