But surely all these high profile sheikhs have body doubles? Anyway I hope you are right but we have been warned of 7-10 days official mourning coming soon.

Everywhere we looked at is a bloody rip-off.

To us it's just another Friday night out, so we are refusing to pay 1000+ dh per head ('yes sir, but it includes free drink and food') and are going to a house party. Same for most of our friends we've spoken to.

But what I don't understand is, if it is true, then why would it be kept under wraps? Why not just announce it....in all probability the worst hasn't happened but just expected in view of this person's health...

the prices are ridiculous, I have to say the 300 dhs we paid for the Atlantis on Christmas day was a good deal though. It didn't include alcohol but the food was fantastic. We don't drink during the day anyway so it made no difference to us. Wonder if it will be as expensive next year
