Eh? 'anything being done for the expats' ? This town is full of expats and that is who all the bars etc are for, not the locals. There are loads of friendly places, or sign up for some sort of activity. Get yourself the latest copy of Time Out and you will see that there are absolutley loads of things to do, even in the summer.

Find a sporting event to watch, people are friendly if you have something in common, in bars too. There are numerous clubs, social groups etc. You just have to get out there and make the effort. Our very own AndyC even invited folks to join him for brunch at Waxy's today.

Damn them... some of these bouncers take their jobs too seriously

Work is rather "worklike" as you said... to be honest I can't be bothered but under an hour left so can't complain too much...

That's the thing with my line of work, you are pretty much expected to be available 24/7!!!!

So how long you been in Dubai mate? and where about in Scotland you from?
