any advice to a new mover Nov 26, 2010
thinking of moving out, to the PJ. From UK, Any advice? There have been some scare stories here about drinking and kissing in a bar, is it that strict out there, cause I've also heard of drunk sex the beach and big spliffs.

forgive my ignorance whats P.J? I like it here personally - its a bit fake. Laws are definitely stricter ie you can't walk down the street with a can of lager (not sure you can that UK either!) but as long as you are not an idiot than you won't have a problem. Loads of people from the UK here and they have no problems getting drunk in the hotel bars, nightclubs, home parties, etc. Check out Nisimi beach at Atlantis - pretty much filled up with UK people each week. If you have not been to Dubai I would suggest you come for a visit before deciding on working/living here - its not for everyone but some people love it.

Joe, I think it shows that aBloke is not familiar with Dubai, refering to PJ, He must have been reading the hype.

Glad to hear that....thought I just wasn't in the know. Also glad I didn't try and sound cool by calling it P.J. myself.
