Well, I'll give it a shot. I was in Doha over christmas for a few days. Came over from Bahrain. Before I went, I didn't know quite what to expect, but when I got back..I got all my assumptions cleared up. Doha is quite boring. Very little to do. At least for a 30'ish liberal who enjoys a good party. The hotel bars are full of guys..so unless you like dating other guys, not much hope really of finding prospective dates there... ;) Well..I'm sure it can be figured out if you live there. I probably didn't go to the right places, though everyone keeps on saying the Irish bar in the Sheraton was the best place to go. I found it rather depressing and bleak. They did do Erdinger though, which is far superior to Heineken, so that was a bit of a treat.
