Does anyone on this forum.......

......... actually live in Dubai?

Just wondering as I have been here over a month now, and not met one of you for a beer yet. Just wondering if you all really live in the UK, and get all of your information from "ex-pat womans forum" and just copy and paste over here.

This weekend is the pinnacle of the sporting year, and I will be found in a bar showing the Ryder cup somewhere in Dubai. So any chance I may see some of you somewhere for a beer this weekend?

I live in JLT, don't go out much though :P

Surprised I have not see you in there then!

Sure I heard of a place on radio this morning called Barristers that will be showing it indoors and outside - somewhere near JBR (which is close to me). Any ideas what bar that is?

Or else it would have been Nell Gwens which I keep finding myself drawn to, or McGettigans at JLT.

The Nell Gwynn? The last time i was in there with Jase it went badly wrong for the next morning- the just a couple rule went by the wayside early (sometime before the Yager started)

For the ryder cup...undecided, but not nells.

have probably seen you in there then, as I have been a fair few times myself in the past few weeks.

I have a date for Friday now - but open for offers the rest of the Ryder cup. Booked my calendar as out of office from 13:30 on Sunday as well.

golf is for wrong uns

i think the last really good night we met up was when we did the karting. mike got bashed by a local kid, oily's wife was brave enough to join us in the boozer and i left my house keys in john's car and ended up skipping work due to the 'good samaritan' who lent me a sofa plying me with drink and fags til 6am.

We should go karting again in a few weeks once the humidity has dropped off.

[dunebuggy]

Live in the Villa
Up for Karting if it goes ahead...not that i'm any good.

[chrisquy]

Nell's also my local as I live right behind. Can normally be found in there for GP or 'just the one after work...'

[ct84]

I'm also up for a bit of karting if you guys fancy it. If there is enough interest I can possibly get us a buy one session get one free deal or something.

[chrisquy]

I'd be up for karting when it cools a bit

[Asterix]

Yeah, me too.

Have they renewed the karts yet or are they still manky?

[dxbtiger]

I've just looked back into the annals of time, that karting session was July 2011, where the fk has 3 years gone??

I've only been up once since then and that was 2 years ago so no idea on karts.

Based on last PH trip results, we should send the stragglers up to find out and they can practice!
