Men Only!

As summer is in full swing and we've all turned into 'W A N K E R S', perhaps it's only appropriate to discuss recomendations for a good night out. Please share your own selection for;
(1) Best pre dinner drinks.
(2) Best meal.
(3) Best post dinner drinks.
(4) Best pick up location. ( If you're young, single, good looking....or Scottish)
(5) Best pick up location. ( If you're older, married, asthetically challenged and wish to improve you Russian!)

Perhaps I should get the ball rolling;

1) Rooftop bar at Jumeriah Beach Hotel ****
2) Asha's at WAFI ***
3) Vu Bar at Emirates Towers *****
4) Zinc ***
5) Regal Plaza (Price varies and depends on market rate). 700 should see you sweet for an hour or so but avoid weekends!

* Denotes price. 1 star = cheapest, 5 = most expensive. Asha's and Zinc both offer discount so offer good value.

Harry

Did I hear you right...'Cuties"? I've only been to Rattlesnakes twice and on no stretch of the imagination would I ever call them cute! Frightened the beejeezus out of me most of them. If I had ended up taking one, it would have been 50/50 as to who paid who!

As to the quiz;
1) Vintage
2) Meat Company (40% off during summer including booze!)
3) Long's bar
4) Long's bar
5) And...er...Long's bar

Bad experience in Longs Bar

Several years ago, one summer, ended up there slightly worse for wear. Got slurring to a georgeous stunner from some Borat infested something stan place. Anyway, next night back again to see if it had been the beer goggles only to find she was actually rather fit. Only downside was the price. 1500! Not even the request for EPC discount could budge her. " I'm worth 1500 and no less. You want to pay less, take chinese girl or old lady". Went back on a Monday (quietest day for business) hoping for a change of mind offering 500 but still no joy! Tuesday (Yep, you've guessed it, second quietest day) I was back again, still offering 500. This time, she just snarled, muttered some gutteral expletive and walked off. I think I heard the barman call me a loser but I couldn't be sure.

Fast forward a year and it's now 2010. World Cup and footie fever. I take the dear wife to Long's bar to watch England get beat. That wasn't the shocker. The shocker was as we left. As we were about to walk up the stairs to leave, out of the ladies toilets walks Onyabackyabitch, looking as deliciously slutty as ever! Spots me and the wife and shouts;

" See, that's what you end up with when you only pay 500!"

Hindsight is a wonderful thing. 1500 would have been peanuts compared to what the divorce settlement cost! Oh well, live and learn.

Harry

That's hilarious, I'll remember that one. I guess the moral of the story is never take the CEO to the Secretary Pool. .

I'm sorry to rain on your parade, it's a good story but it's an old joke that's done the rounds, in various forms, featuring Prince Charles and Camilla, Tony Bliar and that thing he's married to, etc ..........

Excellent Harry,

Finally a subject we can all agree on (ignore Jetaim)

Sunday-Wed...Longs Bar 1-5 (except Monday night madness at Fibbers)

Thurs/Fri

1. Frankie's at JBR - top totty from buildings above, downing martinis

2. West 14th @ Oceana the Palm

3. Buddha @ Grosvenor - still going strong, plenty of Russians who will tell you in first five minutes with that Bond movie accent - "we all Russians are not prostitutes..I haf guud job with Arabian Adventures as Sales mgr". Delighted with yourself you buy a round for her and her mates - three drinks later..."ok if you vant to take me it cost two thousand....it vill be an Arabian adventure you never forget".. WTF!

4. McGhettigans, always a drunk rugby nation snr hostie who has been lebbo'd one too many times coming home to her roots of ........ the bald and the bulging.

5. The corner outside Longs at closing...no need to go in, Miss Ghana will be waiting for you.

Tally Ho... ; >

f.

I would leave Jetaim alone. He'll dig his own hole and fall into it.

no offense taken, I count myself into cat (4), or maybe it was only the beer that made them cute

OK will try the Long's Bar, how much is the beer there ?

Harry

keep it going

Is there a prize for 'best thread ever made on any forum'?

If so, this one has my vote...I haven't stopped laughing since I saw it. I'll even start a fund for the prize (700 bucks should do it by the sounds of it).

Harry, I salute you. I hope to meet you in Dubai, I'll look for the guy who looks like Charlie Sheen (2 and a Half Men Charlie Sheen, not mental, Tiger Blood Charlie Sheen)...
