Funnily enough had a really good laugh with an Emirati in one of the bars. Said he was a cop working in bomb disposal. Mental.

When I was on-Island before getting my permanent place sorted out, I went to the Millenium next to Al Wahda mall.. Cant remember the name of the pub (Porters??). A fair few Brit expats go there...
