Really Dubai? I'd put that down as one of my least favourite cities although Ramadan started half way through my trip so that probably didn't help!
I love Dubai, would move there tomorrow if the wife would. Going back on 22/12 for Christmas, cant wait.
1. If you had an opportunity to kick an innocent puppy to death in exchange for tonight's Euromillions numbers, what boots would you wear? Only joking, what would be your first purchase if you won the £80m tonight? A house with enough land to build a formal Victorian garden. 2. What's the best trip you've ever been on? Vegas, for one week on business, business was concluded after 3 hours on day one and the rest of the week was a concoction of sins. Hamsterley forest on weekend magic mushroom picking trip in my late teens. Funniest weekend of my life. The most harrowing for a couple of the lads but that just added to the weekend. 3. What would you choose as your last meal on death row? Deep fried spicy pepper squid, ribeye steak with triple cooked chips, banoffee pie. Good meal marra, Lime and Chill king prawns, ribeye stake with skins on chunky chips with a Szechuan peppercorn sauce, side order of buttered sugar snap peas Al dente. Banoffee pie mother ****er! 4. What's your worst nightmare? Buried alive, with a load of spiders and "You'll Never Walk Alone" stuck in my head. Nailed into a coffin full of spiders and balanced on the top of some unstable ladders 5. If you could have one song sung live to you in your front room who and what would it be I'd like Richard Ashcroft to sing 'Cast No Shadow' by Oasis. N.Gallagher wrote that song for him, about him, it would be amazing to hear him sing it. Music is about having a good time! Curtis Mayfield singing the full 8 minute vertion of Move on up. 6. Apart from your home town, what's your favourite city? It can be UK or abroad. Vancouver Island. Manchester, so many good times, so little memories .
Good man FFS, I hope we're not on death row together, we'll end up having to share the steak and the banoffee pie! Got absolutely ruined on mushy's in Amsterdam few years back, somebody started talking to me in a coffee shop and I just ran out and didn't stop running til I got back to my hotel room, about 2 miles away. Had to go back and pay the coffee shop owner for the smokes and the cheese on toast that we got him to stick a full pack of mushrooms on. He wasn't amused.
Not if you go in Ramadan! The souks are all pretty decent, maybe not the fish souk, but the rest are worth a look. There's plenty to see and look at but none of it really interested me at the time, since it was about 700 degrees in the shade. The food is the best part about the city, millions of restaurants to cater for all budgets. Boat rides up and down the 'creek' are usually nice too, apart from our 'guide' looked like he was going to die of thirst (Ramadan!) and kept having to stop talking because he was dizzy! We just went in all the hotels, we had somebody who knew everybody in Dubai with us so we just went to Jameirah beach, Kempinsky, Burj Al Arab for food/drinks/use the pool etc all full of hot skimpy Russian women (accompanied by butch Russian mafia).
You've got some good taste in food there marra. I've never had a bad do on mushies or lsd, I'm very lucky to have bowed out without a horror to my name.
THats the idea of the place I have in my mind. Alright if you are a rich Sheikh or gangster or business tycoon etc. Its all built on slavery isn't it? I'd love to go.
There's loads to do in Dubai on a budget, as Terry has mentioned, try all the souks and barter for goods, some of the beaches are free (some are chargable) the transport is very cheap, the Metro system is fantastic, its very clean and always empty so guaranteed seats, taxis are also very cheap but avoid the Lexus taxis, they are twice the price. If you are going with a female, go out drinking on Thursday nights as it's ladies night and they get free drinks all night everywhere. It helps if you have a big wad of cash, yo can have the time of your life if you can afford it.
We stayed at a friends house in Sharjah just outside Dubai for one night, and he told us the Africans that were working on the building opposite were basically slaves, they were grafting 16 hours a day on buildings to get them done in time. He said at least twice a week he'd hear ambulances coming to scrape a dead Somalian off the floor cos they'd 'slipped' from the top of the building. Another thing I noticed was the whiff of the bins outside, in that temperature there's no escaping it mate, although I've been told this has since improved.
I'm out of here boys and girls, enjoy your weekends. Good luck against... Stoke... gotta beat them! Get all ya money on Swansea (-2) for a payday
The best week I had there was Ramadan , all the rich Arab guys have a foreign girlfriend on the side, Ramadan they have to stay in and be good boys, picked up Chinese, Algerian and a Spanish girl. Maldives is very nice but most only have one place to stay on each island, our hotel charged £4 for a bottle of water 15 years ago, mind you beer was cheaper so not so bad. Last meal plump for Vegas had a 64oz Steak , the place had a 80oz steak challenge both men and women had completed it one guy in 15 minutes, and some wrestler done 2 steaks in the timed allowed 1 hour. Cuba is a favourite untouched by anything western and driving around in 50's American motors even if most had Lada engines, and the women easy to pick up.
1. If you had an opportunity to kick an innocent puppy to death in exchange for tonight's Euromillions numbers, what boots would you wear? Only joking, what would be your first purchase if you won the £80m tonight? Id go to A special ladies house. To sort some personal crap out. Then off to Monaco in my cargo vessel sized yacht. 2. What's the best trip you've ever been on? Greenland 3. What would you choose as your last meal on death row? Something my mam made. 4. What's your worst nightmare? Being alone but surrounded by people. Knowing there's nothing you can do about it. 5. If you could have one song sung live to you in your front room who and what would it be. Any classic misfits song sung by them, in their prime before the lineup changes. They're only short so I'd be cheeky and ask for another. 6. Apart from your home town, what's your favourite city? Berlin. Loved the atmosphere, found it quite unique.
The last isn't racism by the way, it is what I believe has happened with too much influx of other cultures.
