Is on again at Nad al Sheba this Saturday. I for one will be flying for it. One of the absolute highlights of the Dubai social year. Anyone else going?

Great a bunch of drunk people in posh clothes. Does anyone go for the races anymore?

I'll be there anyway as I'm working.

Oh yeah, on the 2025 EK flight tomorrow night, a couple of nytols and arrive fresh Friday morning. Take in the lunch at a venue yet to be decided, sundowners at Barasti, followed by? Then a very large Sat. at the races and out again, Sunday afvo. OH BABY!

Enjoy it!

Cheers,

Oh well, maybe next year I'll get an invite...

Never been to the races, not seen the attraction - but I'm told it's quite exciting, even for us that don't gamble.

Shaf, you can go and watch from the public grandstand for free.

or choco can let u in to VIP section as she did for me!

Had a ball! can't believe every time I drive from the Airport to Sh. Z rd how much more traffic is on the road, at all hours! Couldn't believe the new construction and fringe firms opening doors in the last 12 months, I'd say 100% increase.
At the DWC it was lovely to see all those gorgeous free willed trolleys once more. Keep the blouses plunging and the hem line s rising girls!

I went but I didn't see a horse...hm..why is that?

Shaf shame on you. There is no betting at the world Cup, gambling is illegal.
