we had nothing better to do so we started discussing boats with the lecturer, and boats we have, times we got rescued and rescued other people etc (in Malta almost everybody has a boat)
then the lecturer told us if you are stranded in the middle of nowhere in a boat and someone rescues you using a rope from his boat, then your boat becomes his. does this law exist anywhere else??
well i'm off to rescue people :)

really??? are you 100% sure??????
cos then we must own a lot of cars...
people get stuck in the sand on beaches and since we have a landrover its the obvious choice to pull a vehicle from the sand...

Last 4 years in UAE had to grow my own. Previous 7 years in Kuwait - no problem there at all surprisingly! Thought might get back to the normal life now I am back in the civilised world!

Toffee - did you change your signature to getting paranoid?
Understand if you can't help directly, but if you can't are there any places where I am likely to meet like minded people?
Toffee

lol, so you are English, from England? what did you do in Kuwait?

I read one of your messages that referred to it - think it was the one about you designing a smoking room.
Perhaps if you design it, I'll cost it and we can get someone to build it!

Unlucky about the 7-0 drubbing mate, your keeper had a mare. I'm a Boro fan. Hope we can beat the Addicks on Thursday.

Sad night for us Blues fans -especially on my Birthday. Watched it with two old guys (Liverpool fans) down in Buggiba, but at least they didn't gloat too much.
My best friend from Dubai is a boro fan so I wish you well.

Was off watching the match in Buggiba last night 0-7, wish I hadn't bothered - all very depressing!
I am staying in Mosta - what about you?

Toffee - thanks for the birthday wishes.
No still haven't managed to track any down - don't even know where to start - would be great to meet up - you tell me when and where.
I understand Gzira has a reputation for ladies - I got lost there one night driving round in circles - when I told them at work they told me all about it - perhaps I was lucky not to be picked up as a kerb crawler!

yes it does have that reputation, though it's a long story, its just one road, not the whole town, and no, i don't live in that road :)
do you use msn messenger? or somewhere else rather rthan this site where i can contact you?
