Advice on Compounds
 
Hi

Thanks to those who helped with my first Q, i now have a 2nd (does any newbie just ask one???)

My new company has said they have two apartments one in Al Hamra and one in Arabian homes. I am a single bloke who likes playing golf and generally open and chat with anyone, any help on which one might be better for a single bloke and why.

Thanks again for all of the work you have all done, this site has been a god send :thumbsup:

sorry, should've read "some doozies of a night" - not uncommon (at all) to see the sunset and the sunrise in one session, crash for a few hours, and then start it all over again in a few hours. sid & homebrew flow like water and for god's sake don't scare off the birds by being a lecherous creep. (being single in the magic kingdom can do it to you after a while...)

ah now that sounds like fun, the sunset sunrise session not the turning into a creep. I'd like to think i have a few years left before i become a dirty old man but i hear what you are saying!!

doesn't matter what age you are, if all you've been staring at is women dressed as black ghosts for a month or two, you can find it sneaking up on you in a rush! ;)
