Hey all,

Sorry about the **** poor title but what else would you expect!

Anyway today I have accepted a position with my company in their Dubai office, so will be heading East to the land of alcohol, porn and world class twisties.

I know this may seem mad to some........I will be taking the Monster but wont be commuting on it, so no need to buy the black tie yet.

By the looks of it I'll be heading off in early November, so hopefully I'll see many before I go and it goes without saying there will be drinks one evening before I head off.

Anyone interested in joining www.uaemoc.com?

Jon.

Also this will mean I will no longer be able to co-rep in London with Slob. Personally I don't think it's fair for Slob to be left with sole responsibility, as he took the role on in the knowledge of it being shared. This is a great club and it would be a shame if nobody else in London could take on the role.

My hat off to you m8. It takes some cojones to pack up and live there. Although I must agree its a great place to move up the salary and experience ladder.

One of the guys from my boxing club moved up there. Has an appartment on the beach. Those UBS fellas have it all. I could drop him a line if you want? I bet you guys would get along great.

I was never confused. Me thinks I'll have to take advantage of the tourist scene!

You'd best book the guest bed for CK for March for the Dubai Shopping Festival...

Headhunter

I'll be lucky if I can afford a 1 bed at this rate. Am looking at c.£12k rent a year!

Think it's time to buy.

Brilliant Rob!

Don't forget about the scenery though. All those straight roads and feck all to look at. Think I'm going to have to start doing track-days, or buy a KTM and take up sand-duning.

In London, you'd easily pay double that, though.

I know where I would rather live.... not in that awful place with its congestion charge and smog. :chuckle: god, who do I sound like?


All the best chap, I hope you get everything you wish for and more.

Cheers Mand & Albie. Totally agree!

Mad-Turnips, doubt it fella. But hope to borrow Shandy's 916 when I return for me breaks. He should have got it done by then.

That's the thing. I doubt very much I will come across a better bunch of bikers.

Cheers for the best wishes and hope to see you and the others before heading off.

Dear god, you'll be boiling in the leathers! Time to invest in summer leathers, methinks.

I've got a mate who used to work at the office here She left to become a flight attandant with the Dubai Airline. She and two other girls she works with rent a place in Dubai. Would you like me to see if they have any spare room at their place they could rent you :biggrin: They are all in their 20's and Mel is a stunning blond with a bubbly personality

Oh by the way if they have you ain't getting it I will give up work myself and go and be their butler/man slave.

E/W makes more sense to me... since I'm in NE and closer to SE than W and most of N.
Jon was SW so it worked quite well for the half dozen or so members that ever show up to things.
However, if I go racing again next year it may be all change anyhow...
