Hello all,
I'm currently looking out of my office window looking at a queue of commuters battling through the dreary drizzle that is your average British, autumnal early evening :( . It's just got dark (4:45pm) and it's going to get colder and wetter and more miserable by the day :( :( . I'm a happy soul though :D . I tend to look at the brighter side of life... Glass half full and all that... Oh, and did I mention that I've been offered a plum job in Dubai starting in January 2004? :lol: :lol: :lol:
Eversosorry, must have slipped my mind. :oops:
The forum looks great and will become a source of answers for all the little questions that I will forget to ask at the time.
I'm early thirties. Into all sports - football, skiing and motorsports especially. I noticed that there are some climbing walls somewhere - That would be good too. Golf as well but I'm pants! :shock:
Big music fan - Used to play guitar professionally, now just for fun and to annoy the neighbours.
I'm really looking forward to arriving in Dubai. I have been told so much by some good people.
See you soon,
James.

Hi Asterix!
Welcome to Dubai Forums! :)
I think you will find Dubai a very pleasant place. Especially during the winter, and if you get a decent sallary. ;)
Climbing wall here is great!
I'm using it every weekend.
I don't know about skiing though... may be sand skiing!!! :)
Anyway you can roller skate here all the time - there are similarities. ;)

Hi Andyba,
Thanks for that.
Hopefully my salary will allow me to have a nice skiing holiday in Europe anyway.
I bought a great book today - Dubai Explorer - Loads of great info about the living districts, what to expect. Really informative.
I'm getting very excited now - Roll on January.
