Virgin or Emirates

I'm having a bit of a crisis at the moment and am in need of some help.
Now I have recently (last year actually) lost my job as a Pilot due to that wonderful word that is "cost saving" and have had to move back to England where I am originally from.

Don't get me wrong I love flying but I'd really like to swap places and work down the back for a while. Now you're probably thinking I want to do it as I think it's an easy life and not hard work....WRONG. I just want after several years flying not to have the same pressures and be "locked" in a cockpit but still want the lifestyle, travel and nightstops.

Now I may not even pass the selection but I quite fancy Emirares (based DXB) or Virgin (based LHR/LGW).

This is where I need some advise. Bearing in mind I still want to have a good social side to it who do you recommend? What are the crews like? The nightstops? The parties? The....well you know.... the fun side of it (and I don't mean the
before anyone asks!!)

Anyway, any help would be gratefully appreciated!!
