Sorry but I have been invited by President Musharaff to his post-election victory party.

Hi all

Is this bash going to be in Dubai?
Will there be room for 2 newcomers to Dubai, as you have all given me some good advice over the last couple of months, and as we are arriving in Dubai on Saturday, it would be a good opportunity to meet you all.

Great. Something to look forward to.
Without sounding rude, what sort of age group are the usual reprobates in?
First round is on us for all the helpful advice we have received!
