Thursday 19th April. WEEKEND……….plan was established midweek…..with various little tweeks last minute…..I had booked the Burj Al Arab afternoon tea for Roz and Fran. Given that they were at the far end of town, we discussed and decided that the crowd could meet at BarZar at Souk Madinat and move on after…….
Fran Roz CJD and I got to BarZar pretty early…nice setting, live band and outside were bean bags and tables next to the waterways of the Madinat. Gradually the NGS massive etc, met up and sunk a few bevvies…….a few extra faces from the office joined us and we stayed for a good few hours. You see, this part of the evening is the chat part, before it all goes down hill. Time to have meaningful conversation not drunken waffle.
Not sure of the time, but it got to dance time and the crowd voted for a place just round the corner. (and because I have been slack a updating the blog, I cant remember the name of the place!) It was reasonably shiney, had a dance floor but didn’t really BUZZ! Grabbed our drinks and went to sit outside chatting. This was not ideal for the cheese seekers………Natasha arrived (she was leaving for the UK at the weekend and had come to see everyone)………It was no good the requirement for dancing got too much and as creatures of habit JD was the obvious choice……so CJD, Roz, Fran, Scott and I said our goodbyes and found a cab big enough for us all…….our first FEMALE taxi driver! We arrived at Dix for a couple of hours of dancing………
We later found out that the guys at the other venue had had photos taken with a famous ex goalkeeper!! Excellent.

You will have to excuse the shortage of photos, check Daves Dubai days as i think she was a little more snap happy!
