Default Question On The Fanoos Guard

Hi Folks,

Just spent half the night running around the city centre like an idiot trying to find the fanoos guard - and no I did not get rich.

But what I want to know about is the timings - the clues are on the radio between 2130 - 2230 - however I cannot find any information on how long this so called guy hangs around the location - does he hang around the place from 2130 - 2230 also - or for longer?

DOES ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW???

The end of Ramadan will not come soon enough for me - nothing to do with eating/drinking/smoking, but finally a break from people talking about the bloody Fanoo.

According to ET, people are teaming up and roaming the streets in a frenzy looking for this guy.

The streets are in a panic, people can barely move for Fanoos hunters.

I don't knowingly listen to radio in Dubai (I think its better for my sanity that I don't), so thankfully I don't know.

So it appears the fanoos guard may have been rigged...

that doesn't surprise me as from my brief scanning of the paper there seemed to be a lot of UAE Nationals winning the money. But as I didn't read it in depth I could be wrong.
