Do you know of any organisation, club or school offering voice-over training or workshop? I am very interested and look forward to learn more about it. Searched the net but most trainings and workshops are offered in U.S. and London. Anywhere in central Dubai would be perfect if you know of any. Ple...

Yep, you're right. Most talents are hired either UK, US or AUS. I once did a voice service for a phone card that was sold mainly in Japan. The experience was great! And was thinking of learning more 'bout it. I guess if there is indeed no training or workshops offered here in Dubai, might as well wa...

It's a nice place to visit, but.... Unfortunately, too many of the locals tend to be materialistic, superficial, and arrogant. As bosses, they can often be hard to work for. Of course, there are some exceptions. Not all are like that. Yet, a very large percentage of the locals are that way. If you ...

Hey Major! I just passed my driving test too. But I am not as good as you. I passed on my THIRD!!!!!!! attempt! Will get my hired car this week! Pretty interesting you mentioned in one of your posts that car leasing companies won't allow you to hire if your license is less than 3 months. Looks like ...

Read the book (Angels and Demons) too. Liked it except for the last few chapters of the book. It seems like he ran of better ideas to end it. Ho hummmmmm.... especially the helicopter thing! My favourite is still the Da Vinci Code.

Whoa!!! Thanks for the info! You really made me look and check at our passports. Very strange for the immigration officers to do that. I am usually confident with the system here in Dubai and that is "it always works"! Will definitely be more aware on this next time.

so it is best not to go through a driving school then, i'll try my luck on saturday. share me some tips on how to "please" the evaulator/officer. Hey, so did you pass your test? Mikkie is right. Emirates and most driving schools will just get the money out of you. If you haven't passed the road tes...

An advance welcome to Dubai. Well it actually depends on what area you are considering to move. There are loads of real estate agents here i.e., Cluttons, Olympus, Arabian Dreams, Arabian Homes, etc. Endless!!! Some of them especialize in a specific area or type of unit (apartment or villa) or both....

If you signed up with Showtime you should get BBC Prime.. no problem.
Ask their customer service how to get the signal for that station and may send a technician to do some re-tuning. We are a Showtime subscriber and we are NOT HAPPY!!! Since you've signed up already, goodluck.

Dedicated to all ladies who are in a relationship, in a mess or simply thinking of a good excuse to bail out!!!! 1. If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay. 2. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior. 3. If you have ANY doubt in your mi...

I agree with Barzie. Renting a car is the best option for you especially for a short stay of 6 months. Try Thrifty or if your company has a corporate deal with a leasing company, you may get a better deal. When you lease a car, you don't have to worry for the insurance MOST ESP maintenance or unexpe...

Hey....... who are you calling "cheap" british??!!! Careful, careful... As for suggestions.... if you want to go to somewhere in Asia my recommendations are; 1. Kota Kinabalu. Stay at the Shangri-La Tanjung Aru. A bit isolated but has good restaurants, water sports, can do trekking and has this frie...

Well, you have to decide whether you want to go to Europe or somewhere close to UAE. Europe is farther and will take you at least 7 hours to travel. Therefore, more expensive. I recommend; - Croatia (if you love sun, water, beach or just to enjoy nature); - Italy, Rome. Beautiful city and has a lot ...

What I can share with you is a bit superficial (do not know much of the working environment though). The Grand Hyatt Dubai is one of the beautiful hotels in Dubai. The Grand Hyatt is a city conference or convention hotel, has more than 600 rooms and mixed used facilities (hotel rooms and serviced ap...

Dubai is pretty cosmopolitan. You will definitely meet all types of people and all sorts of characters. Making friends esp when you are working should be pretty easy. People love to dress up and Dubai definitely has a lively nightlife (ladies night, overflowing free champagne, etc). Loads of restaur...

I was trying to ask better price monthly. but he rejected . coz my licence is new.... :( That is bloody expensive!!!! Was able to lease a car almost immediately I got my licence but was paying a LOT LESS...

What a nice thing to share. Sometimes I hear stories that their colleagues treat them like trash. As it is, living here is not easy for them so I can't understand why some people make it more difficult for them. Babu shared something that we sometimes overlook..... appreciate and be contented. Becau...

Never had a problem so far. Always go to pubs and bars with my partner, I guess. But going to a bar as a couple is not necessarily an assurance that you can get in. Unfortunately, I think if you are an Asian, it is more likely that you will get problems or difficulty getting in. Just to share some o...

Rugby is a "real man's game"! No big paddings of all sorts. What you see are those big... well toned..... muscles!!!!! The 7's is a faster game than the one played in the international level, so the energy is always high! Unfortunately, will miss this year's game. Our move to our new home is schedul...

What a way to spend last weekend. We did enjoy it! It is indeed better watching the live version of Dubai. The spirit and team effort of each group was great! Funny, unique, ridiculous and others are just amazing! One thing that was quite annoying though is that some people are just so unmindful &am...

Between the two, I recommend Intercon. If you love to drink, then Taj is not for you 'coz the hotel is dry (don't serve alchoholic drinks). But if you are looking for a luxury and modern hotel, you may consider Grand Hyatt (deluxe), Hilton Dubai Creek and Traders (boutique hotels) and of course, Le ...

Try the brand new Ford Focus. Ford did an advert 2 mos ago promoting it but don't seem to see it now in the ads. Can't remember the price though but the price in the ad seems very reasonable. Goodluck.

Gee.... sorry for having such a dissapointing New Year's Eve celebration. Especially if you did pay an enormous money hoping to enjoy and have fun without hassle. My experience is different though. Having to celebrate my New Year's Eve in Dubai for the first time, I am happy to say that we did enjoy...

Definitely a must have gadget but have to admit DO NOT KNOW much 'bout it. Thinking of purchasing one this weekend but have loads of questions! What is the best brand or make to buy (Garmin, Tomtom, Sony)? Where is the best shop to buy this? Carrefour MOE is sellling GPS. Anywhere else? If I purchas...
