Recently I saw this pamphlet dropped at the doorstep. It reminded me of those radio players I saw in Karama, from brands like Panasoanic and Samsong. However DFC chicken seems to be an exact copy of it Big Brother KFC, and is priced accordingly too. I've never really liked KFC chicken. It looks pretty unappetizing.

I haven't blogged for a long while. The new school year just started and we have been beseeched with homework. The amount of it is so ridiculous I can hardly believe its for "our own good". Plus they are increasing the fees in all GEMS schools. They gave us a circular, one and a half pages long, just to tell us that they were increasing the fees (didn't specify by how much). Started with the usual stuff (we continue to promote blah blah blah), then went to the (false) reasons (increase in rent, living costs and Al That) and then finally concluded it with a vague plan to increase the fees. As if it was so low (Dhs. 1500/month). Bus fees have also gone up, but three people continue to sit in one seat. Posted by Picasa

Hmm. We tried the much talked about AL BAIK in Makkah.Food is so incredibly cheap in Makkah except KFC,PizzaHut and the usual rip off imported fast food chains.
Coming to the school issue, i spent exactly 2 weeks running around with my broken back looking for another school as the fees are now to go up 20% and bus fees went up 3 months ago anyway.
GEMS schools are like 5 star hotel food. Great to look at,but without taste and substance.
