I'm living in Bur Dubai for the moment. Company Apartment. Will do me for the first few months I reckon. Plenty good (& reasonably priced) night spots in Bur Dubai. But you'll find awesome nightlife everywhere here in Dubai.

Hey Mac, ive been lucky enough to be shown around Dubai a couple of weeks back whilst there I managed to sample a few decent night spots, spot on however slighty different to the Bigg Market! lol!

I will be put up in a serviced apartment in the Marina for a couple of months until I obtain my visa etc, during this time I will concentrate on getting an apartment sorted. Already viewed 7 at the marina and JBR, impressed with what I seen in most cases!!

woo hoo Geordies are taking over the forum am loving seeing words like canny, alreet and champion pop up, although we might have to start translating soon!

Mac - don't think we met at the last night out so will have to make sure the Geordie contingent gets together at the next one

Good luck with the move James, hope to see you on one of the nights out when you get here

Hey Katie, lol, thanks for the wishes! aye, I must admit, I was certainly suprised to the see the Geordie influence on this forum and I'll be happy to assist with Geordie-english translations if ever needed by none NE members - just wait til we have a pint together, thats a whole different story..... ha ha

Do the fellow Geordies ever get together to watch live games??

Just want to say thank you to all the mods and contributors to this forum, often the little information that people submit from a personnal account can ease allot worries that others are going thro! Thanks All,
hope to see you soon!

20 September, Newcastle v West Ham. The Hammers have it this year and it should help to keep the Geordies in check a little.
