Close!

Actually Liban...

That was a simple joke and you try and curse me! What's that about?

Lighten up little fella!! Don't take life so seriously!

Aha!!! Apologies for my misunderstanding there my friend!

Having seen some threads on here where people have been incredibly sensitive about various topics I'm just a little paranoid I guess!!

Whether it's completely true or not it's stil a good read!!!

Very good!

Could Dubai become the most important city on earth? By Adam Nicolson (Guardian News Service) 13 February 2006 DUBAI - Dubai is growing faster than any city on earth, spending mind-boggling sums on a construction programme that is nothing less than dazzling. But what is truly impressive is the scale...

Well I'm hoping for a long crest....out there soon Insh'Alla!!

Awesome site!!!

Let's just stop all this rubbish and get one thing clear - the world would be nothing without Scottish inventions!! Name a country that has contributed more to the developed world!! :wink: the steam engine, the bicycle, tarmacadam roads, the telephone, television, the transistor, the motion picture,...

Jimmy Dix - a great estabilishment! Try the barber's chair next time your in there!!

No rain here so all clear, but temperature is 3C!!!! Damn it's cold!!!!

I'm absolutely

ed at reading this!! This kind of thing really tarnishes the image of Dubai - I feel terrible for the girl involved and angry at the inadequecy of a 2 year sentence!!

[quote]am sure that there was a strong reason for the Judge to give the Light sentence .. Not enough supporting Evidence/ Underage convicts / other Legal issues .... Just a note on this.....the fact that they recieved 2 years for rape means that the judge is convinced that an offence occured, and he...

So guys - any of you play video games? If so what are the current favourates? Mines currently FIFA 2006!

Yup - judging by the lack of response I guess no-body on here's interested!!

The Irish Village is absolutely rammed for this! Last year they had a huge stage set up outside, and I think 3 additional outside bars. The place was packed and it was a really good atmosphere.....

Here's a question for you. Where would I find historical inflation rates/GDP etc. for the GCC to cover the last 5 years?

Sorry for the boring question and apologies if this is in the wrong forum!

Thanks for the info guys - I think I've found a source for this now

Totally agree with Jag.....from my visits to Dubai 99% of the bad driving is by arogant locals, who really can't drive for sh@t!! Used to be that you came to Dubai and the taxi driver would be Indian....now these guys are great drivers, cos they know that if they crash, then no-matter who's fault th...

Can this scam artist spammer be banned???

Crazy Crazy Crazy!!!!!!! Great post though!!

With Wayne Rooney and Michael Owne up front I think England have the best chance we've had for many years.

My heart thinks England can win it, but my head says no-body will get past Brazil.

Should be a great event though and I can't wait!!!

Germany are no longer good enough to merit any kind of focus from me! Brazil and France are the big "enemies" for this World Cup. Germany are just some third rate team with no chance, but I wish them well....

Don't forget the recent 5% municipality tax!!!

Completely agree with you. A filthy habit - happy for people to smoke as it's their choice and they are free to do so, but forcing their second-hand smoke on others is selfish and should be banned! Interesting that here in the UK the Government are currently considering banning the sale of packs of ...
