Smashed up cars on display

Traffic Week in Fujairah saw a number of damaged cars displayed at roundabouts in both Fujairah city and Dibba Al Fujairah as well as on the road connecting the two.

Dubai has been doing the same thing for years, but with cars which have actually crashed in to roundabouts

Hailstorm in Oman

Vehicles belonging to a car rental company in Darseit were tossed around in a flooded wadi during the rough weather in Oman.

Hailstorm in the desert, whats happening with the weather over here?

Man in abaya pays the price

A cross-dressing Indian man who clothed himself like an Arabic woman and used the female bathrooms in a hotel has been fined dhs2,000 and ordered to be deported. A court in Dubai heard that the expat dressed in an abaya and tried to ensnare a rich businessman to rob in the hotel to help him out of his debt problems.

After lurking in the female only bathroom for several minutes, the man pretended to be a guest in the hotel in the hope of snaring his victim. However security at the hotel spotted the man and had him arrested. He told the court that he hoped to find a rich man to help rid him of his terrible financial plight. He will be deported after paying his fine.

None of that cross dressing lark over here allegedly, Eddie Izzard wont be coming here then... boo!
