There is nothing wrong with what you did. There are even little shops with a local sitting in it, who simply oversee this piece of paper officially certifying that a car transfer deal is done. Only some are authorized to do it. This is done so that the buyer and seller don't have to bother going to ...

I bet you like his woman-on-the-side idea too.

By the way.....you will become fat at this time.

The whole day no food......and at night food party....Hello big bu**

It's actually a well-known fact [amongst the dieticians and occupational health peeps] that in general people partaking of the ramadan fasting tend to put ON weight. It's all about metabolism [I think Choco explained it better than me]. Again. I love the idea that a religious festival can be used a...

It is not exactly racism as much as the stereotype that being "Indian-looking" or "Filipino-looking" automatically means you are poorer than them (unless you drive up in the Rolls), so they think they can walk all over you.

I have seen people outside the defense road in Abu Dhabi (Mostly Taxi Drivers) selling lost mobiles on very very cheap rates but as seen in newspapers I dont even think now people will be going ahead for a second hand mobile http://archive.gulfnews.com/articles/07/09/09/10152371.html Report it, man...

Didn't know there is a business like this here. Most here get their body parts from scrap, or dealer, or just beat the existing one straight.

It is illegal on paper, but 90% of the companies do it.

Long. I got lost after half of it. Even I don't whine that much, and I'm supposed to be one of the oppressed races.

Yeah, even dumbass illiterate Sharjah taxi drivers can manage to get a license.

personally i have a Jeep G. Cherokee but............ if you want serious desert playtime then there is only 1 choice Toyota Landcruiser closely followed by Nissan Patrol all the others are ok though, its just that all the tours use toyota and they are genenerally accepted as the one to have for ser...

I'm actually in the same scenenario. And getting contradicting opinions. Some people I spoke to living there think it's a decent offer, in fact quite good. While people here think otherwise. Just curious: How much do you guys make, in what region? Do you have families and kids with you? Thanks. It ...

I do know Brits, Canadians, Aussies, that have had there passport 'stored for security' including whites

Exactly.

Thanks, GT. After reading the responses here, it seems to me that people go to Dubai if/when they are not happy in their current country/city, no competitive jobs there, very little money (not that it seems you can save a lot in Dubai these days), or you're desperate to get out of a place. Please c...

The way I live currently is this: I live in a 3-bed apartment about 1650sf ft (they are much cheaper here), drive a second-hand wagon, watch my expenses but still manage to go out drinking once in fifteen days, shop for stuff during sales, eat at not-so-expensive restaurants and go on a holiday wit...

Stay put in HK. There's no way you can live comfortably with two school-age kids on that salary, unless your spouse also works full-time and earns the same (and even then you won't be saving much). If you put my name into the search function you'll find another post I made to someone in a similar s...

If there is a police report against you, the airport officers will probably stop you right there and then. Happened to a guy with a stolen mobile phone, according to the papers.

I can't even remember the date of the tsunami. December something? 9/11 gets all the hype.

Hi!! Is this also possible for sponsoring my son?.. It is not our parents who we will sponsor but our son but in combined salaries we got.. Criteria for sponsoring a family for men is 3K + accom, or 4k without accom, last I checked. Some female professions are also allowed to do this, like nurses a...

How much for 3 bedrooms?

You can have 3 beds maybe.

It won't climb dunes, dude. Also, if you get stuck, there is no low-range gearing to help you get out. I've seen the ads too, of it climbing dunes in Hatta. But it is misleading to hint that it can play on dunes competently.

I saw that crap too, even on new cars. I always thought it is a fake dirt look to make you look tougher. As if you like offroading with your Caprice or something. The crap looks like paint primer, and even put on headlights, sometimes even specs on the doors to give a "realistic" look. Ret...

while the points are valid, i dont think someone from the USA should be cmplaining, we could all right a list of the problems in America! dubai certainly is different from where i come from, but at least theres no dole scum, chavs, hoddies, aggressive behaviour and crime here. miss newcastle...... ...
