"Only in the UAE baby only in the UAE"

That somes it up perfectly.

Isn't it great!!!! :D

And yes, funny how the thread is going....maybe it will turn into a "Let's not moan about the UAE...some things are v.cool" thread....or perhaps not.

Your starter for 10 - How cool is it to hang around in 5 star hotels having a night out, every week, and NOT feel like you shouldn't really be there?!

In the UK, outside of London, you're lucky to see a Porsche. Here, you see every car you could think of. And top-spec at that.

Got home last night to find a Maybach limo parked in my parking space, with the chauffeur polishing the windcreen. Honked my horn, made a "I'm parking there, so shift it mate!" sort of gesture, and he moved.

Fantastic, Made my day. That would only happen to me in Dubai!


Haa well a similar thing happened to me a couple of days back. I enter my parkin only to find a gleaming black bentley with a number plate 1 in my space. I suppose the plate was RAK or Ajman. There was nobody in the car no chaff, nobody. But that's ok, cuz I'm ain't calling the cops in for a one digit number plate. No problemo mate, I'll just back up and fine me another space.
I guess you can only smile when sumtin like that happens :D

Excellent quote. Just about sums up expat life here in Dubai...








... the latter sums up the attitude against "Dubai Expats who think their stuff don't stink" upon return home.
