Unfortunately I didn't manage to get to Sharjah last year as time was extremely limited. Did however get a trip to Al Ain courtesy of one of the Sheik's buddies who was a friend of my wife's father. The trip to Buraimi was certainly completed much faster than the last time I did it in 1967!
I managed to dig out a few nostalgia photos. I only had a few as the rest were left behind on my first divorce and were chucked out
