Is it local councils whose representative are chosen/elected every 3-4-5 years ? I can't believe it is nothing - that...
I personally think that the powers that be should coordinate with all schools and have them sing the same song in every school on the same day from a long list of Spice Girls hits (but not the one where Sporty Spice screeches along with Bryan Adams) and then move on to the Rolling Stones, the head b...
I have always thought it was obvious ... These nutters always feel the need to congregate, so next time they do, round them up and ship them off to the Isle of Wight or The Outer Hebrides - suspend the boat and light aircraft services to these locations and let them get on with it. Then when the ski...
Well Sarah, if you take offence at that then I would give serious consideration to staying out of the UAE. There are few places that have even taken wheelchair access to heart in their design. Sometimes the obvious quip or joke can be heartless, and on behalf of myself I apologise if I caused you of...
If I were you I would contact the schools, try Dubai College Dubai American Academy JPS Jumeriah College English College Do not speak to the receptionist - get to the person in charge of educational support, IF there is anything then they would know, they form the basis of that network and also have...

What is it about what I have to say that so infuriates you? I could also have posted the Bloomberg piece on the appalling financial return of Mo Money's horses, but chose not to ... you see my job is in the financial sector and I go through it as it comes in ...

I played rugby with a deaf guy in Edinburgh (a few years ago) He was partially deaf 75% but refused to learn sign, relying instead on a combination of lip reading and the sounds that he could hear. The amount of times we would scream "watch out" or "man on" to no avail, as anothe...
