No that would be Kiwis and Scotts. We get koalas and kangaroos

I think you'll find its the Welsh rather than the Scots who have "issues" with Sheep!!

I remember my first 300 baud modem and dialing into the local BBS for chat and warez stuff

You need to get a hobby!!

Right all of you - stop making fun of Strawberry. You ask a simple question, and you get abuse as a reply - its a wonder that newbies bother coming on here at all!!! Strawberry - if you manage to find anywhere before Thursday, you could come to the DF meet and show us that a) you've got it done and ...

Zooter, This question has been asked so many times on the forum and how many times has the answer come that body piercing is ILLEGAL!!! There are no regulated people that do it here, some people still do but it's not worth the risk of what you might catch. I'm blue in the face from saying this to s...

Chocoholic wrote:Nick, I wasn't talking to you in the first place! Is your name ZOOTER? And I'm a girl with raging PMS, so back off buddy unless you want the claws out - HISSS - oh P*** rhymes with that!

I'm really sorry Chocs. I didn't mean to have a go at you.

Still friends???

We might kick-start the Zimbabwe economy with this venture

Congrats to Liban - entering the 5000 club.

Not sure about your new title though:

Lord of the Posts?? Whats all that about??

All the best matey - here's to the next 5000!!

I imagine Arnie does not look at a flight from the UK to DBX as 5 hours but as a loss of an opportunity to log a couple of hundred posts.

5000 - Amazing.

Too right!! Mind you, there are flights that have the internet available - I'm sure he'll be going on those in future!!

I'll get you a drink tomorrow night for this Liban.
Erm, they are free, right????

Liban wrote:They are free.

Everything is

My favourite word - "FREE" !!!
Not that I'm tight with my money - but this 50dhs I'm bringing with me has got to last me my whole stay!!

Seems to be fitting in well already!!!

Shame you can't get over to Dubai for tomorrow night - meeting with all the faces of DF would have been useful.

well thats not the issue.. when my mom n dad sed that i cant get the car...it means..i cant go out of the house that day!! my dad's too overprotective..thats y! Not good enough!!! I've come all the way from England especially (arrived this morning!!) and now you aren't coming!!! Disgraceful!!! Mayb...

That does actually cheer me up when I'm feeling down!!

alexandra wrote:well...have fun guys but don't forget...hope u will come on DF with a great feedback and nice pics!

There would have been pictures, if I hadn't accidentally left the camera in my suitcase!! Sorry guys!!

I'll second that!! It was a really great night and I'm glad I was persuaded to come over for it (even though a lot of you thought I was mad!!).
It was good to put faces to names!!
Oh, and it is safe to say that Fayz will probably never need to search for plastic scouring pads ever again!!

I got by far the most useful prize. Indeed, in came in handy this morning when the Taxi driver was trying to find my hotel "Should I take Sheik Zayed Road, Sir?". Like I've got any clue!!

I'll be sure to keep my new map with me then!

Those who left early and those that didn't turn up at all have missed a treat there - Liban being beaten with a cricket bat!! Now that was worth the airfare alone!!

its too much .. max 5000 per month Hmm - it would be nice if they were - but 5000 per month for a fully furnished one bed apartment in the Marina is even more in the realms of fantasy that 12000 pm!! I'd probably say that 9,000 dhs per month would be about average (to say that its fully furnished).

Ok - as a guy with a shaved head myself, I'll tell you that I went through the same process you are going through and whether or not I should or shouldn't. I ended up shaving it by accident in the end - used to shave my head with the clippers with one of the attachments on, and completely forgot to ...

My turn to say THANKS too! It was a great night - with great food - thanks DFM, and people were much different than expected. Looking forward to the next one Physically or personality wise? I'm going to say both!! Physically, definately there was hardly anyone that looked how I'd imagined them (wit...

She's had the shades on for ages!! Ever since the PSP incident where her dog had to be sacrificed by the DFM as a warning!!

dodgeek wrote:haha....12k per month...dude!

i think the good times are over for landlords.....why the hell would anyone fork out so much for a 1 bedroom?????

heck i bet by 2007, you'll be begging to rent it out at half the rate!

We can but hope you are right!!

I went to Carrefour on Saturday morning, and was most disappointed to not see HP there. I expected him to be stood there greeting people as they enter the store with his usual "smile". I guess sales probably suffered substantially the day that picture was taken - so maybe HP is now banned??

true ... nothing turn me off or on like the smell

Note to self: Change aftershaves next time I meet Corcovado!!

But my fav still has to be "Whoa! Good save!" Yeah - Paul Robinson was outstanding - he made some incredible saves when the ball was kicked straight to him!! And what are you saying about my drinking OJ's?? Oh, don't suppose they charged for the beer mats that me and Corcovado destroyed d...

Vive la France!!!

They obviously were the better team because of their goalkeeper - who incidentally also has a shaved head, which spins this whole topic nicely back to where it started!!

Corcovado wrote: thats sweet ... hopefuly soon

Yeah - definately. I'll bring some more beer mats for us to destroy!!
Oh - and wear different aftershave obviously!! Any preference??

GAB wrote:Ah, Great Grandpa! You bald and me with no teeth-DF meets just got more frightening

No teeth?? Gabs, you always make out you are so old, but you must be like 27/28??

Woah - hang on - I thought we were all talking about shaving your head??
How did we get on to "Brazillians" and shaving your "crown jewels"??
