Newbie!
Hello Brits,
I was told this is a good place to meet other Brits in Dubai.
Me, I've been here for 20 months now and thought I'd try and increase my social circle beyond work colleagues, on the web.
35, 5'9", single, active, keen surfer (thats in the sea, not on the web!)..... erm...cheeky.....erm....staggeringly good looking!?! (what on earth are you meant to say in these things, without sounding like a complete tool?)
...I don't know...

You're right about it being too bloody hot. How was UK? Going back on Tuesday for 2 weeks. Looking forward to more temperate weather and greenery and cold sea-water...

I was in the Isle of Man (where my parents are) so it was a bit cooler than mainland uk - in fact the novelty of cooler weather wore off after a few days but only a couple of days of rain in a month was acceptable!! Didn't dare venture into the sea though - not that much of a pain freak - will try and send you some welcome karma
