This is our box of pretty Christmas cards. None of them went out to any of you because we do not know where to buy the stamps. The only post office I know about is quite out of the way. Only yesterday did we discover that the mall we frequented the most, there is a post box on the ground floor (we almost always park our car on the first floor and so we missed it) and that one of the customer service desk also double up as a postal agency.
Well this is Dubai. Unless you are very rich, you will find things very haphazard and even hazardous here.
As at this time of writing, I believe they are still carting away a lot of the sewage in tankers to be treated. The situation is so bad that the typical waiting time for a tanker to dispose of its load is about eight hours. So it is little wonder that some of them prefer to find alternative dumping ground. Of course, some hours or days later the evidence will appear in all the wrong places!
