    What is the meaning of PM. I am a project manager = :-B PM. But Asume that PM drive means something difference?? 😕

    April 16, 2017 at 1:59 pm #38794

    In this case its “PM” meaning afternoon drive the same way AM and PM are used for 12 hour time(example the meeting time 2:30PM). Technically they are short for ante and post meridiem but thats not really important.

    April 16, 2017 at 2:35 pm #38795

    Okay :thanks: I am from mainland Europe and still not used to this PM and AM. But okay let’s forget it back to the drive. I hope that I can make it. B-)

    Sounds like something you would get from Yahoo Answers!

    @john

    Hello Guys,

    since the big upgrade on DO site, I am unable to post quick messages neither to open a new topic 🙁
    (Am I alone with this, or some of you figured it out already how to do it? If yes pls advise :thanks: )

    My question is if any of our dear Marshals – hopefully many of them will read this -, would be so nice as to arrange a Saturday morning / afternoon drive – considering the long weekend ahead of us.
    I know that we have plenty of options already, but I will attend the Indiana Jones screening at Dubai Opera (with a real symphonic orchestra 😀 ) on Friday and I am afraid that I couldn’t catch it if I participate on the Friday PM drive.
    Oman wadi drive is not an option either – unfortunately.

    I know that this may sound like a real 1st-world problem but not doing any offroading :drive: on this long weekend will hurt me really…

    cheers to all of you from China :ymhug:

    We already have something in mind for saturday gabor… a local drive may be posted soon… however it most probably will be a fewbie and above drive with limited registrations!
    Cheers

    Hey Gabor, I just checked your permissions and I am able to see quick reply and post reply. As for new topic in the trips sections, only marshals are allowed to do that 🙂

    Please let me know how can I be of assistance.

    Dear Hamza,
    I meant to miss the quick messages on top of the homepage – this was the easiest way to reach out to the community whithout opening any new topic. Are you planning to bring this feature back?
    The rest is OK, I understand that only marshals are allowed to open new topics in the drives sections – otherwise it might become too crowded with off-topics.
