Considering who I work for, I doubt that will be a problem.

Either way, this is not the place to discuss it. I just thought I'd point out, it's not a problem.

Me too - i got mine today and I've been working for over three months. It's not illegal if the company is taking that long and starts the process immediately

congrats to u as well scarlet.
I am not sure but according to the rules one has to have a residence visa before he/she can start working for that particular company. But does anyone follow the rules here :)

Really, I was smashed. I woke up this morning feeling like I'd been run over (twice) by a concrete truck.
Any chance you could bring some of the Jammies to the thing on later this week?
arniegang
Ian, let me know nearer the end of the month, i can bring ya in a couple of bottles if you like.
Great taste BTW, Jameson's is my fav (and Ballentines)
:wink: :wink:

hahahaha...you know what...i seriously think you guys must have exhausted the suppy chain of PSPs from yer end of the world...Mrs Fayz cooks up a storm....Mr Fayz is a gadget freak...and the cleaning is left to the cat... :lol: :lol: ...NOT...we get help twice a week...but fear not...the PSPs are being well scrubbed...

I heard about the one dirham a drink offer.
I expect there are a few thick heads this morning?? Any MIA (missing in action)??
And as for the PSP's - I saw Fayz on Sunday, and just before he fell asleep whilst eating his good old English Fish & Chips (maybe my scintillating conversation??), he told me that he was still on his first one! And, he also revealed that he fears that some of the PSP's may be missing!!
Oh - Scarlet & Ian - congrats to you both (sorry to hijack your thread!)

did he at least finish the chips...or did he just drool over them...

He unfortunately just drooled. He'd even asked for extra chips (don't tell Mrs Fayz!), but then couldn't eat any of them!!
He put me right off my burger and chips - which I just managed to finish!

no worries mate be glad to can bring in 8 bottles, so you and Ian let me know what you both want.
the_zooter
I shall obviously be carrying out further investigations from this end, in the hope of finding the culprit.
On a brighter note though, I understand the Zimbabwean economy is now booming - so I believe the DFM may have played a big part in that. Big pat on the back to us all!

It truly is Rockbottom. Dubai has some interesting places... Rockbottom, Rattlesnake.... The Cyclone.

Hmmm
Well I think Fayz was understandably gutted to miss out and be stuck in London (especially having to meet me as well!).
^ian^
Which reminds me... a "Boys night out." was discussed last night... is anyone interested? Waf was keen to check out the Cyclone... only for curioisities sake.

Where would we find a more-rockin' nightclub? Beside Morrocco.

Yeah I've heard it's pretty seedy, but a lot of Bikie's go there. (Is this true do they have bikies in Dubai?)
We don't want trouble... well, not that kind of trouble anyway.

Considering the place is meant to be rock bottom, there's plenty of soft ones there.

Congrats Ian,
Now you can get your liquor permit and really be legal with that bottle of Jamesons
Concord
Congratulations.
The most stressful part was handing over my passport to the PRO! He told me everyone does it to get the 'stamp" but I refused unless he gave me his passport for me to hold and he did (he had to in my case) and the whole thing took 2 days (after the test and paper work had already been done). Its funny because he told me not to tell anybody that I held his passport!

Oh - Scarlet & Ian - congrats to you both (sorry to hijack your thread!)
Mate it definitely wasn’t the company and I do apologize for cutting our night short. It was really great to meet up, I also wanted to congratulate you on your news, albeit bittersweet. I still owe you beverages for the PSP’s and I’ll be back in the UK soon enough hopefully next time I won’t be taking the red eye after working an 18 hour day though lol
Ian and Scar congrats to you both, as I write this I’m hoping you’re singing a duet.
Oh and I’m now on my second PSP, I ran up stairs and I looked at the stash I received and it was 18 packs. I’ve rekindled my relationship with the Nosh though and have seen the strong arm of the DFM in action, I know the others will turn up.

Congrats ^ian^ and scarlet!
