Only 2 1/2 weeks in, though, so not expecting too much. G&T sounds good:D

This sounds like a good attendance is possible. What chance we will see Lionheart make a comeback?

OK, only votes so far are for Marina end and one for IV.

I'm happy with either, will probably be heading straight from work in Tinterweb City so don't really mind.

Yacht Club is nice, but full of ***** on a Thursday night, anyone got any suggestions?

What about Rosso at the Amwaj Rotana on JBR?

One vote each at the moment.

Which is your preference?

Any particular bar preferred?

I'm in, and definitely prefer Marina area.

By the way Scamp, in my experience all bars in Dubai are full of prciks, and when I walk in the door the number goes up by one :(

I know the feeling.

Marina end it is then, more seem in favour of this. I'll be going straight from work so earlier the better.

Suggestions then, I think the following criteria should be addressed;

- Minimum number of *****
- Smoking permitted (or Meow and I aren't going)
- Minimum number of *****
- No *****
- Better beer on tap (Pride preferred, which means the Byblos but that'll get shot down by most here)

Probably about it.

SO, apart from my initial shout of the Amwaj on JBR (Although getting in and out of JBR is a massive ordeal, it's not too difficult to get to Amwaj)....thoughts?

Strange name for a place of work.....

Scamp, in a previous thread you mentioned two buildings with squash courts. Where are they?

I on for drinks any night except sat/sun. Why not Thursday, no problem with the hangover!

Because most of us have lives outside this forum and not everyone feels the need to drink so heavily that they are unwell the next day.

Oh and who are you? Kindly introduce yourself newbie!

Some Emaar ones in Downtown. Burj Views I think, but you'll probably have to know someone there to book one.

Otherwise I know the (Morning) Gloria Hotel has some.
