not banned as it has been found in choitrams in the past, I think it is more a supply and demand issue. They think no one will buy it but are wrong!!!
Irn Bru must be the perfect hangover drink, I had 6 cans of it yesterday and it sorted me right out. If you can get it here in Baku, I am gutted I won't be able to get it in Dubai...:( |

I aint seen it for a while in Dubai, where is Baku?? sorry for my ignorance. I will ask my scottish friends about it. Arbroath Abroad will be on here any second and he will know the answer I am sure!!!! AA where are you!
You can get Irn Bru here in Dubai, but its expensive and very limited stock. Put it this way, when i was here in 03, i done a deal with an agent for sevenseas to sell them to me for approx 90p a can. I then sold it to my desperate shipmates for 1.20 a can. (i ran the canteen on my ship) Very lucrative as you can imagine a ship full of scottish people away from home for 9 months!!! Anywy to answer your question, I know where to get it but im not telling on here! I just wish they supplied Diet Irn Bru as it tastes much better, esp in a Voddie |

Is it true thou that you get a hell of a lot more for your money out there? My relative aparently has a bloody mansion over there for the price that would get a 3 bed villa here
There are some big house to be had but they are no longer cheap, a typical "mansion" would be the BP suburbia at the top of town (think Stepford) and those rent at around 7000 USD per month. I am in a fairly salubrious, very large, 3 bedroom apartment in town and paying 2500 USD a month (but thats a 3 year old price) |

( Something is more likely to get banned for having too many natural and healthy ingredients :D |
