Thats a very good suggestion for all the "boys toys" stuff he will have.

Not so sure Ian, they may start off chasing it, but, if a few wickets fell early doors, you guys would shut up shop. All depends on how England do tmr morning.

Hahahahahahaha, what a wind-up merchant you are. I am not biting. :wink: England may just say "fook it" we will bat all day and let the Aussies toil. Its all about the mindset in this game. England have come out on top in this game, I believe, especially following the loss in the first tes...

Otherwise I'll buy you a pint of the good stuff next time we meet.

I will defo hold you to that.

Yes, I have. Very good service. I use the .co.uk site.

Books arrive in approx 5-7 days from dispatch.

Real men use their teeth or the crack of their ass! hahahahahaha

What do you have to report from the 7's? Any good?

Thats a fairly tall order. The difference would be large, as you can get some very good discounts if you hire long term, also you can use a Company name to get a better rate.

I think the gap in the prices would be too large to make it much use.

Well, its gone totally "tits-up". What more can you say?

we came out with the wrong attitude of dead bat, the Aussies came out fighting. Fair play to the Aussies.

KeithL,

I love bikes matey, but I have not straddled one for years.

I love speed too damn much, hence why I have not owned one in the past 15-20 years or so, I would not be posting this if i had done.

14/1 - sweat baby sweat! hahahahahahahahaha

Damn, I wanna be in a pub watching this.

well im emirati Its just like if i look at a subject from an angle, they look at the subject at a different angle and there the conversation stops. I am definately not saying that all locals are like that dude, i hate generalising myself although i might sound that i did in my previous post... But ...

I don't think he meant that. It can on the other hand explain why you feel like you are not like the average normal local citizen, because having studies in other countries and get impression from something else than the normal thing can sometimes make you feel more tolerate towards others in your ...

There's 5 of us here in the office, constantly hitting the refresh button on the keyboards! hahahahaha

I cannot get the live commentary up like I had for the first test.

Yorky i don’t agree I’ve known ppl leave aboard study get high degrees yet still hold those old rusty believes.

So have I, but from my 30 odd years of living overseas in various parts of the world, its the norm, not the exception.

Then you are an exception. Well done.

Something you will never, ever experience, obviously.

I agree, however, you will have to find me first as i will be hiding (hint: look for the tallest building and you will find me on top, on the ledge)

I just don't know what say!

Some of you met me before so this post is no surprise :shock: But over the past couple of days I have been picking on Sage and Onion but after realizing his IQ is lower than the speed limit on Beach Road (in KM, not Miles - I ain't so ruthless) I think I need help. So... There's an easy solution(s)...

Con Air

Damn, from the UK. I order say 3 books for about £13.00 and the shipping charge is approx the same or slightly less. Maybe £10.00. I think it may also depend on the weight of the book. The guys in out office do it all the time. it might be worth looking at opening up an Aramex account, as has been s...

The SEARCH function is your best friend.

Some people on the forum are twats and tell you to search all the time . The search function on this forum is shit and it just trawls up a load of crap. Best of luck. :D There is also the option to first read a few of the other posts that have been posted up. Often as not, people are just too freak...

One of my old neighbors had a '69 Targa but they are few and far between here. I would also be a bit wary as there are impeding laws that will likely be in place by the end of this year limiting the age of cars that can be renewed, i.e. nothing older than 15 years. These laws will likely have claus...

you will be lucky if you can find a new one. Don't think there are any left in the showrooms. Last time I was in Trading Enterprises (1 week ago), there was a guy driving the show S2K out of the showroom, grinning! hahahaha log onto http://www.evolve.ae there are around 5 or 6 S2K owners on that web...

Also, in other countries they have far stricter emission controls, therefore, with stricter emission controls, the output will be lower, hence lower bhp figures.

I have the same with the accord. In the USA it is 244bgp but in uAE it is 275bhp.

Welcome to driving in Dubai. Hazard lights are the best, but, I ranted about this a while ago when we had fog, however, after looking at the FAQ's on Abu Dhabi police website, they actually tell you to put your hazard lights on! WTF.

This is hilarious: taken from Abu Dhabi Police website FAQ. Q: What is the duty of the traffic warden at the accident site? A: The duties of the traffic warden are summarized in the following:- - Direct the traffic flow at the accident site. - Transport and rush the injured people to the nearest cli...

EJ, Excuse me for being rather rrank and to the point but one word: princess! (it may be extreme, but i don't think playing two guys is fair) Think of how these guys will feel if they find out that you are seeing someone else. They obviously have strong feelings for you, which it appears have develo...
