Ok, I have a list I created ages ago and called it 'restricted' but I can't find any info about my list. Ideally I would like to make sure people on that list cannot see my photos. I have so many albums it would take hours to go through and exclude people from individual albums. I know I can set photos and videos others have tagged me in to exclude certain people in one hit but can't find a way of excluding people in all of my own photos.

Don't worry, Freckles; the difference is your child IS sick. A doctor has examined him and diagnosed him as being sick. The child the OP is talking about has not been diagnosed as being sick So many kids get one illness after another after another here and it seems your DS just has his name on that long list of kids. The OP's post is nothing like this normal situation at all :(

# 0631: This is the first time today that we are hearing of problems in Reactor 2. This morning, there was a huge explosion at Reactor 3, and there was a blast at Reactor 1 on Saturday. But both of those reactors are said to be intact. I don't know. Very worrying for anybody in the areas though as the problems just seem to keep mounting up.

Patchi deserves to be thrown out! You did the right thing! If had been any other brand then maybe I'd be with F1.....but Patchi? Ew. *LIKE* I like Chocolat, made by Swiss chocolatiers right here in the UAE.

This guy told my DH he was Italian, although DH said he was sure he wasn't. I just assumed they wanted a free (i)phone out of the deal and that the suits they were handing over in exchange were either cr@p or stolen.

If the police are stopping people in UAQ or Ajman I don't think they're looking for booze as licences are not required in those emirates. Last weekend my friend's maid was on the bus from Dubai to RAK and the bus was stopped by the police on that road that runs past Barracuda. The maid, along with several others was loaded into a van and taken to a police station. They wanted to know why she was heading to RAK when she has a Dubai visa. She was released fairly quickly but I'm sure alcohol was not a consideration.

If you're not willing to sponsor her then it's illegal.

If plane A leaves Dubai travelling at 600MPH and plane B leaves New York travelling at 450MPH and the distance between the two cites is 6800 miles how far from New York will it be when the two planes meet? Dunno, about 4180?

Pepps, DH had this happen to him just a couple of weeks ago. Like HAK they pushed the suits on him and wanted DH to buy iPhone as a birthday present for his DD. This was in AD.

Surely a warning of an illegality is better than an "I told you so" after the event? It does happen, it happened to a family I know who copped the full lot for hiring a maid illegally when they reported her to the police for stealing from them. If you want to take that chance, knock yourselves out, but don't say you didn't know when it all comes tumbling down around your ears. (Not directed to the OP btw but to people who think it's ok to hire a maid without sponsoring her or let the maid they sponsor work elsewhere.) <em>edited by Sanddy_Dogg on 10/03/2011</em>

If he's that sick she should be with him. I think you'd be doing her a favour by putting on the next plane home. With a cancelled visa, of course.

Result!! I am surprised at them reducing your other fines, you must be chuffed :) It's also nice that they looked into it for you rather than giving you the standard, "Your fine, you pay" line that seems to get trotted out.
