Dubai

[lilelvis2000]

Anyone catch the Dubai Dreams last night? Seems similar to London. A city full of people who just want to have their photos taken for Hello magazine. Except they are smart enough to live in a hot, safe and tax free country.

Wonder if there are any jobs there. The wife wants to join in, she hears the shopping is endless.

Tke her to the Jumara(sp) Beach hotel, she can sit and look at it!

Its an amzing Hotel, my standard room had a shower big enough 6 people, a bed as large as a swimming pool (well a very smal one), views o ghte sea and pool.

Seems like they're ploughing billions into the place at the moment. Trump's new hotel looks quite nice as well.



Just hope Dubai stays in al-Qaeda's good books...

Just how much more phallic could that be?


The architect obviously designed it while having a quick bit of R&R in the loos.

Just to show the other side of things:

I heard that due to overshooting their budget they're gradually increasing the planned occupancy density, or whatever the phrase is, and the place is likely to end up a grossly overcrowded dump with far too many people for the infrastructure and roads etc.

I forget where I heard that, and it could be whoever expressed that opinion is a competitor or has some axe to grind; but if true it would be a shame as the development is a nice idea.

Dubai?

You can keep it. Full of dirty foreigners. A bit like Luton only hotter and with more camels.
