Default bah humbug...

...went to the usual guy we get our christmas tree from in plant street satwa yesterday and they are charging 900 dhs per tree!!!...bloody hell, i thought 600 dhs last year was a total rip off...who on earth would pay that sort of stupid money for something you'll chuck out after a week...

also, jumeirah beach hotel seem to have seriously stuffed up with their turkey orders, there were some people in there yesterday going nuts cos there are no more turkeys but jbh said they were accepting orders til 23 december...ah well, don't you just love dubai, lol...
