What time's kick-off then? I don't normally get back to Marina till after 7, but if we're starting earlier than 7.30-8 I'll try to leave work early.

And I'll be easy to recognise coz I'm the svelte-looking one.:blink:

Easy for you too, it can't be more than 10 mins in a cab from your neck of the woods.

Anyway...

I can walk there............

If you worked in an office with 35 people doing what I do, you'd crave for some intelligent people to talk to as well.

I can't support this. It should be equally awkward for everyone to get to.

And can I suggest we all wear pink carnation buttonholes, just so we can recognise one another?

Only one person need actually do that. Thanks for volunteering.

For god's sake people. Stop squabbling and sort this out.

Just go to the new Belgian Beer cafe in Madinat Jumeirah. It's approximately halfway between Marina and Downtown and it satisfies Meow's requirements for no New Dubai. Easy to get a taxi there, easy to get a taxi out of there. Smoking allowed. Plenty of tables. Good beer. Any problems?
