Introducing moi
 
Afternoon,

Having been kicked off a popular forum for using a naughty word (wtf?) I decided to go over to the other side.

Just wanted to say hi.....

Been in Dubai for 3.5 years, 1 DD and 1 DS (both driving me constantly up the wall :blink:), but have been a ME expat for many years.

Looking forward to getting to "know" you all :D

Don't think that'll be a problem on here!

how about using FLS to signify both a daughter and son? I'll leave it up to interpretation what the F and S stand for, but L = little....

Re: Introducing moi
 
thanks for the welcome.....umm pussy shaving initiative???? but I don't have a cat.....:o

As for the forum...yep you guessed it...good ol' EW. BTW..I love FLS!!!! Great name and so well suited to my two who at the moment are cleaning the aircon ducts in the house (gotta use 'em while they are small enough to fit).

I shall respectively try and keep the EW lingo to a minimum....if I slip up feel free to extract the urine....

I prefer my cat waxed, as it happens.

My "DW" calls EW expat harpie, and tells me about the "b*tch wars" from time to time. As far as I can tell, someone of limited education or intellect starts a thread, and then it goes downhill. But hey, as long as no one swears, says something bad about a site sponsor or Islam, they can pontificate on the virtues of the latest medical breakthough (by which I mean bullsh*t device, cream or pill) or the wonders of organic fish (gee, they must come from a different ocean than the rest...) at length.

And soooooooo......welcome to the Dark Side.

EW have never even let me join!

Perhaps they sussed my intention of posting "get a ****** life" almost daily wasn't in the spirit...

I got banned from a baby forum in the uk for a harmless sarcastic riposte about babies and flying. You just KNOW the mums who
complained are the ones you want to kill when you meet them at school/baby group etc.

Welcome from another newbie(ish).

Now for the questions: my maid is asking for more that three hours off a week/where can I get a bodywrap in Jumeira/what can I cook for dinner tonight/is my car-house-handbag big enough/why do people make a fuss of my kids when we're out, can't they detest them like northern Europeans? Please, help me...

Re: Introducing moi
 
Now for the questions:

my maid is asking for more that three hours off a week - As long as the 3 hours are between midnight and 5am, not a problem...

where can I get a bodywrap in Jumeira - OMG!! Bodywrap's are soooo last year, dahling. Let me give you the name of my fave fish foot massage spa...

what can I cook for dinner tonight - Why have a dog and bark, cooking is your maids responsibility and, if you don't like it, you are well within your rights to deduct the cost of the ingredients from the 3 figure stipend you pay her..

is my car-house-handbag big enough - Never, dahling....

why do people make a fuss of my kids when we're out, can't they detest them like northern Europeans - Oh, but they do, but only because they are insanely jealous of their 'free spirits' and joie-de-vivre.. And until such time as they make it a crime, let them continue to treat the shop assistants like 3rd class citizens, party till 4am and rightly harangue the taxi driver for not understanding their slightly slurred speech ...

Please, help me... - Its not a problem...

I don't mind being called a misfit, but I violently refute any allegation that I'm a rufgee.
