No, just the BBC Sport app. It's slow to update but normally quite entertaining.

Cricbuzz is pretty fast at updates. The ecb or England cricket on Facebook is hilarious!

Ok so thoughts on Madinat Jumeirah now plz 😊 thinking the abras on the waterway canal thingy would be good and lots of different bars?!?!

Oh and Scamp- 145/6 😜

I know you are getting batted and tossed (that sounds plain wrong), but in post #14 (scroll up) I told you about Al Hambra...

Sorry 😳 I must have overlooked this post. Are there any other restaurants other than tapas? Thinking chinese/Thai. Also recommendations for bars for drinks 😀

Madinat is a good shout in theory. There's some half decent places for dinner (Meat Co) and lots of bars to enjoy....downsides, it'll be packed with ****ing helmets and tourists and scumbags and the taxi queue to leave will be monumental and terribly organised with bastards skipping it or walking down the road and flagging the cabs that were meant to be coming to the polite folk queuing.

Ha wow thanks for that! Think we may take the car anyway but not sure. I'll give it a go me thinks, any good chinese/Thai restaurants there? And can u get to it all via the abra's? Or walking?

just go to the Buddha Bar - it's where you'll end up anyway regardless of what we say

I value people's opinion as I have no idea where to go. Only come to Dubai for shopping and brunches and no clue where I end up after those!

You can get on the abra's and stuff but it's frankly a bit toss.

Wait. Gottit. There's a thai place at the back that you have to get an abra to (well, don't have to but can). I've been there for a wedding reception I think, it's got a Thai name or something.

Quick google tells me I'm right - Pai Thai.

That's good enough for me thank you 😊

Zeng He's in Mina Salam is pretty good, Bahri Bar above the restaurant is a decent spot.

Or Pai Thai in Al Qasr followed by Kouba for drinks.

Thanks I've booked the Zheng He's 😊

I'll have to change my booking at the Budda Bar then.

Haha see u there then
