After a brief spell in Georgia I find myself back in Dubai.
It's good to be back :-)

Mayhap 'cause I have a remarkable resemblance to the 'Black Cormorant' :-)

Really, the term is a reference to the old trading days in London. A typical call would be 'Ship it in Shag, I'll take all you've got'

Not really exciting, but those days were so much fun.

I'll be there for the next round of drinks 'Buyer Large' :-)
