Hi all, so I have been in Dubai 4 months now and have in the last few weeks began to feel settled....so its time to get the old tennis racket and golf clubs out, neither have been used at a highly proficient level before, but enjoy the odd game here and there for the social aspect and stress relief! So am looking for any tennis partners or golf buddies to make up a four ball to meet up with every now and then.

I am 36 married with two kids, male. Anyone interested PM me or respond to the thread.....hoping there are some like minded people keen for some regular games.

Cheers

wow this is going to be a difficult game of tennis!

you might have got a better response if you had said you were 22, female and single.

As for the golf... if you are utterly crap then I'm on for a game in July... I'm a fair weather golfer

I'd be interested but only if the other players drive like me....100yards straight, 90 degree turn to the right, continue into bushes (or sand)

Always up for a round of golf..... Away for a couple of weeks but back in Dubai at the end of May so any time after that and I am in....

Are you all coming back?

livbel

thanks for the responses - on the golf front, I am not a great player, I can get around, normally lose 1 or 2 balls, can drive a hundred yards etc - its more the fun and social side than the competition. I am looking for a bit of banter and a laugh

Yep, me + the boss and the two small shouty things.... Should be back 2nd week of May and then staying in Dxb for the foreseeable future.... Quite looking forward to it.....

Welcome back!

Do let me know when you are settled.

Millhouse

humm, you might be a bit too good for me! I'm more 50 yards vertically upwards with the ball landing slightly behind me depending on wind direction.

I'd be up for a round of golf. Don't expect too much though as my clubs are back in Blighty so I'll need to borrow some! As a tall guy I struggle with standard clubs so try not to laugh too hard as I repeatedly swing and miss lol!!!

I have a spare set... they are ladies though

in pink?

I am up for golf - I also have a full spare set for use.
My boss plays tennis every Friday morning with a group - i will ask him where

My drives are like Tony Blair...........

......... they seem OK at first, but then they veer sharply to the right.
