but for the rest...don't it sound a little bit....discriminative? And when we put end to it? It is. This is not a democracy. On the bright side, at least you know where you stand here. There's discrimination in Western democracies too, people are just more careful to hide it because they know if th...

I don't know about the Australian School - it's in Sharjah no? Depending on where you live, transportation of children could be a factor in your decision. Sharjah <> Dubai is 1-2 hrs each way these days. For 5 and 9 year old, I don't think it matters much what school they're at as long as they and y...

http://www.dubaiforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=7401 - Navigation-GPS-Solution

Never heard of it so I got curious :? ... It exists is about all I found . The lack of information would bother me. A school should have a website (that can be easily found) at least. You could try posting the question at Dave's ESL cafe . Or http://www.expatgossip.com or http://www.expatwoman.com -...

Ah, well spotted . I missed that.

I was in a car last week looking at the navigation screen. They come as standard in more and more new cars now.

I am working with a US based comapny that would like to set up in a free zone. Do you know if they have to be incorporated in the UAE or can they just register? Does it vary depending on which free zone? Any advice would be greatly apreciated. Anyone can apply to register. Whether or not you're acc...

They used to block craigslist I thought, but have just checked now and it seems ok (unless you click on the personals).

expatriates.com is still blocked though

(B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year are 120,000. "Caused"? That's a loaded term to use. Where's a link to your source? I'm not sure if you're just trying to be funny to see if you can wind people up or if you really do think there's a problem. The closer a person is to dyi...

Does anyone know if there are any supply teaching agencies in Dubai or do the schools have there own lists of teachers and should I send my CV to the schools directly? Oh and what is the money like as back in the UK it pays well but there is a shortage? Supply teaching will get you probably 250 to ...

I heard someone saying that the guv wants to impose a rule that people with Dubai visas should be forced to live in dubai only. Well, I heard (actually I read) that the UAE is signatory to some international document which says residents have freedom of movement within the country i.e. you can live...

They need somewhere to keep the spare Fosters. You can only get a couple of crates in the fridge ...



Yes, I know, them Ockers don't drink Fosters. But no one's heard of XXXX or VB here.

sniper420 wrote:Well GPRS is data packet transfer eh? so what's the purpose in new navigation system?

I know. Don't follow your second question .

Hmmm. No written agreement? Does the lady you rented the room from have permission to sublet? Or is she the owner? No tenancy association AFAIK except for in the Springs or Meadows or one of those places. Dubai Municipality has a tenancy office of some sort where people can go and complain about ren...

I didn't, that was DaveDXB. Second time I've been confused with him. Do I not have a clue what I'm talking about either ?

I've heard good things about her too.

Good luck.

i agree with sharewadi, you don't have any legal recourse unfortunately, you could try the "threaten card", but she may call your bluff - would you then call the police and admit to breaking the law? I might, depending on what law/s have been broken. But I'd ask a lawyer or someone with a...

May not be up to date - I don't think you can get multiple entry visas any more for example.

I just read the OP again. For some reason I had thought the landlady had asked the OP to leave. My error :oops: . I suspect that the grounds for wanting to leave (ie building has more people than you were originally told) would not get you very far in a tenancy association or tribunal, or in court i...

Blue Room or Blue Bar? Whatever, yes it's a good place for jazz. Agree on JamBase too.

Stuff that makes your forum work (yes, I know, this one uses PHP/MySQL instead of ASP/SQL though).

But the point was what Maaad said. Timely in the light of the latest progressive idea from the Labour Ministry.

I was a wee bit bamboozled with some of those sites so Ill try the ones you have suggested as I have no idea what html stands for?! :oops: If you don't know what HTML is then set up a blog to start learning about websites. http://www.blogger.com is a good place to start, and you'll learn as you go....

Fine for me. What happens when you try this URL?

You did the usual computer fixits? Clear cache, cookies, restart, sledgehammer?

Try 4x4, Al Awir used car mart, off road motors and a couple of others on Sheikh Zayed Road near defence roundabout. For getting an idea of prices and so on. Be careful if you buy at Al Awir especially.
