Winter what to bring
 

Hi guys my hubby is already in Al ain working and I am soon to follow - yeah Ive been left with packing house up and everything else ;-)) anyway just packing my case and wondered do I need jeans jackets and boots - does it get cold in the winter ... got some jumpers as I know the air con is cold when we was in dubai in May but not sure what to bring whilst living there ..Many thanks Fizzy

Re: Winter what to bring
 

It doesn't get really cold, but I do like to wear boots in wintertime just to have a change from the eternal flipflops...you will probably wear full length jeans etc in winter, and longsleeve tops...no need for proper coats though.
You do get proper winter fashion in the shops and some people (women) do actually wear wintery clothes...

Re: Winter what to bring
 

thanks for your fast reply coats to store in the loft then - cheers ..:)

Re: Winter what to bring
 

Remember to keep a coat and jumper for when you RETURN to the UK. Nothing worse than turning up in the UK in winter without warm clothes!

Re: Winter what to bring
 

that reminds me of parts of spain... it's about 25 there in the winter and yet they're all wrapped up because it's "supposed" to be winter...

Re: Winter what to bring
 

Is it worth bringing skiwear?

Re: Winter what to bring
 

Depends if you want to stand out from the crowd at ski dubai or are planning any ski holidays from here

Re: Winter what to bring
 

ie look like a total tosser. :D

Re: Winter what to bring
 

everybody on skis looks like one of those :rofl:

Re: Winter what to bring
 

If all the stuff is available for hire from ski dubai, no point. Thanks!

Re: Winter what to bring
 

Snowboarder, are you? :sneaky:

Re: Winter what to bring
 

Ohhhhhhhh, no, there are some very sexy ski guys, I assure you!!! :p

Re: Winter what to bring
 

no one looks sexy on ski's! and yes i'm a snowboarder :thumbsup:

Re: Winter what to bring
 

handy to be able to spot the kids though and I do have a bit of an issue with second hand clothes :p

Re: Winter what to bring
 

no Im just jealous! buggered knee means Ski Dubai is a no go area for me!! :frown:

Re: Winter what to bring
 

Ah, harsh...

Guess I'll be skiing now and then, since I'm starting to think sending my bicycle over might not be a good idea, and it's gonna be too hot to run... still, at least there's a rowing club!

Re: Winter what to bring
 

take up capoeira... you'll love that

Re: Winter what to bring
 

if you got plenty of space in your container, bring it...
the suits they give you at SkiDubai are horrendous, and the selection in the shops is poor.

Re: Winter what to bring
 

sandboarder soon!

Re: Winter what to bring
 

Thanks for the advice. Will see how we're doing - no furniture and a generous allowance, thankfully!

Hope the waitlist for the flight on Tuesday clears :D
