EXPAT BLOG meet up - 27/08 - 9 p.m. - Horizon Lounge at Habtour Grand

hi anna

how are you? i was going to send you a message to see if u fancied joining us for the meet up, you beat me to it.

it's still looking a bit threadbare in terms of numbers so it may not be as big a turnout as last time.

otherwise how are you settling in to dubai life?

Sorry to hear you've already moved on FreeAcer, I'd been looking forward to meeting you.

Hey Alethe, welcome to Dubai! I'm not so far!
Dubai is 1 1/2 hr away from Ras al Khaimah!
When it gets cooler we'll organize things over here and I sure will count on you!
Cheers

-> the rest of the gang : have fun tonight!

What is "entertainment...", is it a magazine?

Hi Marleen, Here's a link to The Entertainer which will explain what it is. Last year the book was accessible on line but apparently not anymore.

Hi

Should have done this earlier, but here's the Time out dubai link for the bar.

horizon lounge

See you all there.

The booking has been made in my name, Harry, it's the VIP area.

For those who haven't been there before, when you enter the lobby, turn left and walk straight down the corridor, at the end of the corridor turn left, lift up to the 3rd floor, then walk straight between the champagne bottles, then out and into the tent.

Have fun guys and have one on us

Hi

It was an enjoyable evening on friday.

Good to meet everyone.

Do we have any volunteers to organise the next one?

Hi harry,

I prefer to have the organize but I feel as there are many attendees in Dubai i would prefer some one to organize the meet up.
