Can I re-direct you to the Living in Al Ain thread which is very very popular and full of good advice and recommendations. The nasty brigade are obviously still in bed so run before they pounce. Hope you find what you need. I have heard there are good tailors in Al Ain but I havent used them personally.

Grace, wtf is that all about?

You seem to like stiring up and causing trouble

If you couldn't see that Larnie's thread was not a piece of self serving bollox then I despair.

The al ain thread is great and all non al ain people leave it alone...

But a living in dubai thread....

Funnily enough, larnie is not breaking any new ground there....its all been covered before

So I'm not being nasty, just tired of the same old crap being spewed out by bored 'expats" who think they know it all.

Chur chur....I mean...we know Kiwi's are at the bottom of the food chain along with the welsh, but give me a break...

However you choose to characterise it, it in no way deserved the juvenile vituperation it attracted.

Opposite the Lulu's which you pass on the way to Al Ain Mall going from the
' Clock' intersection, there is a lighting shop, seems to be an illuminated football match going on on the roof......close by is Technical Scissors. They seem to produce a decent, speedy bit of tailoring.

The following can indicate a delusion:
The patient expresses an idea or belief with unusual persistence or force.
That idea appears to exert an undue influence on her life, and the way of life is often altered to an inexplicable extent.
Despite her profound conviction, there is often a quality of secretiveness or suspicion when the patient is questioned about it.
The individual tends to be humorless and oversensitive, especially about the belief.
There is a quality of centrality: no matter how unlikely it is that these strange things are happening to her, the patient accepts them relatively unquestioningly.
An attempt to contradict the belief is likely to arouse an inappropriately strong emotional reaction, often with irritability and hostility.
The patient is emotionally over-invested in the idea and it overwhelms other elements of her psyche.
The delusion, if acted out, often leads to behaviors which are abnormal and/or out of character, although perhaps understandable in the light of the delusional beliefs.




Recognise yourself?!
