Living in Dubai because I love the weather. I work for PwC on exciting projects with great people. Blessed with lovely friends and an amazing family. VMO.

@LynneA294 I’m sure it arrived in bubble wrap and plywood.

@SultanAlQassemi @SultanAlQassemi if you are looking for interesting people from that period I know the political agent in RAK from 1966. Here a picture of him with Sheikh Saqr and his Mercedes. He taught Sheikh Saud to shoot as a little boy and came over 10 years ago.

@MJackson_Author @bigphil321 Not sure they’re interested in North Wales 🤣

@Bills_gallery @IsabelOakeshott @Bills_gallery We have some pretty sophisticated vertical farming for all salads, lots of fruit, animal fodder all using way less water than Europe greenhouses. We also have massive fish farms and surrounded by sea. Supermarkets better stocked than UK.

@typesfast @grok Worked for a football (soccer) software company in the 1st .com boom and had some software to do something similar. Was generally ok but basically failed as some of the key words and phrases literally got lost in translation "I'm interested in a striker" became "I want to fight"

@shanaka86 No one is doing this.

@Pivot2Centre Nothing happening apart from back to beach and enjoying life like we did last week.

@Bills_gallery @IsabelOakeshott They have strategic reserves of grain and rice built up before COVID for these scenarios.

@polytixs @IsabelOakeshott Traffic always looks like on the Plam at night. 🤣

@SimonCalder The only people who are leaving are those who are stuck in transit or were here on holiday. Not a single one of my friends or work people remotely considering “evacuating”.

@calmaxy21 @bmay Don’t worry we have local oysters now.

@SAlwashahi To me it’s pride in Nation that we can all get behind and be part of and something generally not felt in Western Europe at the moment. Generally everything here is good and positive news, a new road, more schools, another restaurant, more parks, a better beach etc. Not like home

@Nasty66plots @anishgawande @emirates @EmiratesSupport I’m not sure that at a massive international airport or one of the most popular tourist countries in the world no one speaks English.

@omaralbusaidy One of the other posts they said something about the “huge demand for paid parking”. I don’t think anyone ever “demanded” paid parking it has been forced upon us and, with those camera cars driving up and down kite beach every 30 seconds it’s beginning to feel a bit like London!

@JoeBangles11 @Ifoughtthelawn Get the phone out of the bedroom. Plug it in downstairs

@Jason Dubai- Sirene at J1 beach.

@taufique_13 @thatdayin1992 Like what? Oil and Dubai chocolate. Can you give me a list of Dubai made products. It’s a service industry country so maybe you’ve been buying holidays here.

[Charlie Clifton @CCAD1]

@CrimeLdn @IcelandFoods give that man a promotion. Good work.

@Benarasiyaa These are normally flying people to Lukla and Everest base camp. They are there everyday. Nothing special about it.
