Jeez where will all us gaylords go now Rock Bottom is shut. Damn they make the best chilli dogs in the world at Rock Bottoms, 10 dh's you can't go wrong!.

Halas the other half must be dyke's if they don't want to sleep with me ;) Ok Ferris maybe not half but making steady progress, although that has certainly slowed recently.:oh:

I just knew we would get the truth out of him.

ANSA,Your secret is safe with us.

I've been in lots of bars where it would have been welcomed had the police dragged off the band. Maybe the music was just plain crap.....

Surprised to see topless sun bathing on the lawn at the Sheraton last week, thought someone from management would have said something to them but the were to busy admiring the view. :O

...not the first time certainly.
This was noticed in 1979...but then it was all spoiled by some hotel management type who brought over a bed sheet.
Perhaps he was looking for cerb service?
Strangely, noticed in DHA (believe it or not) at about the same time in the Ramada...but suspect it was too hot for anyone to bother.:p

Geez 411A thought you'd died and gone to your rewards! :p

For all you guys out there in the middle east (DUBAI)
What are the women like there? Are there many there, is there a possibility to meetthem at clubs pubs like in other western countries?

Cheers

You will probably find that the women in Dubai have alot more respect for themselves as opposed to women in Australia.
.
Thats what I know. :)

Enjoy your wine sir.

Ok, thanks mate.
But are there many different nationalities living there, like can you meet single chicks from western countries too?

Try the Chicago Beach Hotel...if it's still there.
Many unattached.
OTOH, if you show the coin of the rhelm...noticed a couple doin' it on the hood of a Buick not far from the Hyatt....at 2am in the morning.
Strangely, no police in sight...:cool:
The disco in the Hyatt ain't bad either.:E

All women here are covered in black from head to toe so no way of knowing where they're from or what they look like!! :}

You wont find a more cosmopolitan society than this one with plenty of bars to go meeting them. Different bars for different nationalities. Happy hunting :D

411A, Chicago Beach no longer there, was replaced many years ago by the Jumeirah beach hotel. The Brau house (sp?) was great there.

Disco at the Hyatt good? Only if you want hookers... Might as well go off to the Cyclone :ugh:

Desert Nomad, thanks mate!
Do you know if guys going to work for EK can bring their wives/GF and can they walk around in normal western attire?
what if theyre blonde, do they have to cover up?
Sorry i just dont know the culture!

Aussie,,

Its good that you are asking all these questions, because the last thing you want to do is go to DUBAI and have a major culture shock. The city itself is extremely modern and westernised. But it still holds islamic values over this. Yes you can take your partner to dubai and "no" they dont have to cover the body from head to toe in black.

What i suggest you do is visit www.emiratesgroupcareers.com and read up on "living in dubai". There are short little video's to watch. If you have the money, why dont u go for a short trip and see how it is. If you intend on living in Dubai, respect the laws because "the police dont **ck around". If you show a slightly violate islamic law. (I.e drinking on the street etc"). YOUR OUT~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.. Australia is way too soft on law enforcement as opposed to dubai. Hence "Extremely low crime or NO crime exist in dubai"..

Wine?

Aussie,

You can do pretty much anything you want to in this country so long as it is in reason. As said before no drinking on the streets or being totally bolloxed in public, you wont be deported unless you start assaulting the police. You will however spend a bit of time inside. Would be worth getting deported before that happens...

Your wife will be fine but suggest she doesn't wear tiny clothing. She wouldn't get touched up or assaulted but would receive many long lingering stares and people assuming she is a Russian hooker.

This has to be one of the safest places for anyone to bring up a child and for your wife to live

Find yourself a book called "The Dubai Explorer". It'll tell you everything you need to know.

Hope it helps and if you can, get oyurself and family to DXB for a long weekend and spend it with people who live here and go out with them doing their everyday bits and pieces rather than taking the tourists out. :ok:

And Aussie, what most of the guys I know have found here, is that there is a desperate shortage of decent 20-30's men here in comparison to the number of single women in that age bracket. Due to the most common occupations ie. Air Hostess, Nurse and Teacher all being female dominated, I have found that if you remove the local guys and the losers from the equation at a decent night spot, the ratio is much better for the single guy than back home. As a result you find the single guys are with girls they wouldn't stand a chance of being with back home. I am not referring to hookers here either, but legitimate single western girls. It really is a smorgasboard of beautys here, and the beer is cold as well :ok:

The term, "any port in a storm" applies equally to the girls too, it seems!! Even ANSA seems to be getting his leg :mad: .

Friend of mine has just started a 30 day vacation in jail for drink driving following a car crash.

So what are Dubai jails like???

Mutt.

...puddy cat
 

Then there's always Al Ain just down the road. Home to many nurses and occasional Swedish netball championships. Careful you don't get smacked upside ya head by a burly sports-woman in the pub though... :ouch:

I resent the implication I wouldn't be able to attract any of my current girlfriends if I were back home, mainly because it's true.

EK has 5000 nasties and they come in all flavours. Opposing them are 900 pilots of whom 2/3 are married, 1/4 are gay and the other 1/2 you can count on being out of town on a layover that night.

Make hay while the sun shines.

Thanks again guys, just wanted to know if there were western chicks, and i guess there are!
What about cars? Are they expensive, and i gues being there fue would be cheap?

Can wives of an airlines pilot get work there?

Thanks again

Hi Aussie, check you P.M.

Thanks, Dumps
