Chaos In Columbus Cafe

novita77
By novita77

Once a month, a strange collective phenomenon occurs at some well known venue in Doha. The QL mums group congregate in their dozens to meet, greet and chat the time away.

This week, it was the turn of the Columbus Café in Villagio.

Qatar Living Mums May gathering was just as busy, and as well attended as all the others, at this rate, we will have to look into hiring the Khalifa Stadium LOL. Old friends, new friends, guests and newcomers all got together to both expand their circle of friends and chat away about Qatar life.

If anybody out there is new to Qatar, or just looking for a stepping stone to get to know people in the same boat as you, you are welcome to join us at our next meet up. You don’t have to be a Mum to join us – female is qualification enough!

Just look out for information on the QL Calender.

being there in August. Question though - looks like lots of little ones are in attendance, but do school-agers ever come during the holiday months? Just wondering, since I will have one with me.

Thanks for posting, Novi!

Ashwin, I dont mind hijack here and there. I just dont like your mate attitude saying that I am greasing up to Diamond because he-she is a local. He probably doing that non stop in his real life, not me though

T_COM - YA.. I agree to you when you say Diamond typed the Indian corruption here by mistake....

I read the whole forum twice to check where did I ask what to get such a reply from Diamond...

And Shaine vs Novita77 - More of Ego clashes which happen occasionally everywhere....

Shaine - You must have been replying to the Diamond's Post...

But as hijack is not permitted :( ..... let us not discuss it here....

It must have been for the forum on TIPs to Driving Instructors.....

http://www.qatarliving.com/node/500108

So let us respect Novita77's wish to keep this forum Hijack free and restrain our natural instincts.... :)

Novita77 - I apologize for the BIG time Hijack... But as you need to get dirty to clean your House...

Similarly you need to hijack to clarify the previous ones and avoid more in future....

Specially when there was lot of Ashwin in it.... :)

Lol Good evening Alexa ... me neither. I am talking about not hijacking my thread then this Shaine talked about that I want to please Diamond because he/she from Qatar ?

Go figure it out yourself ...

By novita77• 22 May 2009 21:02
novita77

Dont know Diamond, I dont work for him / her, why should I please him / her. Care to explain? Maybe you always do that in your real life... (greasing up to the local to please them), please dont measure other people feet with your shoes.

tcom, before I post the photos I asked the ladies permission first. And they are happy seeing their photos on the front page of QL.

I guess different group have different rules. Besides what the different having the photos up on QL or on Gulf Times Website?

Ashwindoke...it is well known that corruption is rife in India. Nothing works without you having to bribe your way through it. Most things can be bought...driving licences, college degrees, etc.

t_coffee_or_me - Coz Novita n Grp know very well.. beauty is beauty when it is appreciated... else whts the use...

Especially by the people who are into the business of appreciating Ladies professionally..... :)

We are good at pretending to be nice guyz.. :)

Theory of masses... When so many good ones are together.. you jus can't focus on any one....

Generally I do not forget good faces when I see them... But this time.. I think it ll be an exceptional case...

Shaine - Ya... I am yet to meet a "Should have never met her" category in Doha... :)

Can you just say thank you from me. I was so upset; I turned around and he had gone, next thing I knew (within seconds; although it seemed hours at the time), there she was with my him, laughing and joking.

I was so relieved to see him, I did say thank you but not enough. So if she is the lady in question.....tell her..........a MASSIVE thanks and I owe her big time. xxxxxxxxxxxxx

There is a lady with blonde hair and glasses.

(Maybe the wrong person, but I think I 'know'her).

She was lovely to my little one when he got lost in Landamrk.

Thank you, never got the chance to thank you properly as you went as soon as you handed the little bugger over.
