Dubai Reports

[Piper1]

Now guys, I have been inundated with PMs (some from members with as little as one and three posts) asking for phone numbers for the girls in the band.

Pure coincidence, I'm sure.

BTW - I simply ignore zero posters who PM for contact numbers.

Greetings,

I'm planning on visiting Dubai next month and I was wondering if it makes sense to rent a car rather than take taxi's everywhere. My goal is to visit many of the spots mentioned on this site and I'm thinking having a car might help. The last time I was there it was very tough to get cabs.

TIA,

Joe

If you're only here on a visit for a week or two, forget the car. Taxis are cheap, parking is a nightmare, and navigating yourself around town will be a major hassle. If you want a drink or three at a club, then you have to leave your car behind anyway. In the Golden Triangle area (York, Regal, Jockeys, Imperial etc), you can walk between the clubs. A long run would be from the Golden Triangle to Rattlesnake or to Premiere (about 20-25 minutes for 25 Dirhams or US$7 by cab).

EDIT IN: BC posted same time as my post - he's right, there is a taxi shortage, but I've never had problems downtown. (Incidentally I saw an ad in the newspaper yesterday, where a major cab company is recruiting 3,000 new drivers - so that might help the situation).

Not long ago I would have said absolutly not but the taxi shortage is getting such that I can understand why you may want to consider it. However it will certainly be a more expensive unless you are staying way out of town, driving in Dubai is not a lot of fun and parking in the Golden triangle area is a pain too.

If you stay central - somewhere like the Old 4Pts all the places in the Golden Triangle are in walking distance except at the height of summer. You can even walk to the Arba station and take the ferry across the creek to the Raddison if you want to visit Kubu. Later in the evening taxis to get home should not be a issue.

And whatever else you do don't drink and drive, not even one small beer.

You are right, renting a car might come handy. The only porblem would be the directions. You would need some time to know which road to take and when, to avoid Dubai's famous traffic. Of course night time you may not encounter this problem.

Damn I guess my question wasn't a crowd pleaser. Well it was on my mind thought I would ask.

Interesting question BPD but as Piper says, it’s not an easy one to answer. I fall in love every time I walk into a shopping mall – the UAE is the melting pot for the exotic and the beautiful.

It didn’t really work out with me and Scarlett Johansonn anyway so besides areas of beauty, it’s the little imperfections in the one’s that I finally end up with that can attract as much as anything.

Now guys, I have been inundated with PMs (some from members with as little as one and three posts) asking for phone numbers for the girls in the band. Nice try. I am not going to give out anybody's phone numbers to someone I do not know personally and trust. This is a band we are talking about not a group of WGs. So please stop.

At least Groinstrain is going to buy me a couple of pints, just for a name!

BTW GS it is pronounced Dyna as in Dyna rod, as you put it. Not Deena.

Be careful out there.

Thanks, there was no shortage of tallent, but the uniformed guards were a deteriorant. I read about the LE activity from the past two weeks and was reluctant to attempt anything at the Sheraton. Overall., the Hilton Creek was a much better hotel, in all aspects, room, resturants, etc.

Johntodd,

Too bad you didn't take advantage of Deira club Stars, guards are always there at that hotel and typically they just ask your room number. I have used the 2nd entrance past the main door to hotel and no problems. Gaurds wandering different floors have offered to arrange girls for me. Next time ask the girl of your choosing if the hotel is OK, won't be a problem.

My GF is trying to change travel company otherwise she may have to go home for a holiday and a three month visa return.

Change of company successful and she got her visa today. But still lots of others having trouble.

Mine was from Tanzania and I don't really care for Black Women. ... I chatted her a bit found she was a studying in London and comes to Dubai regularly as a tourist.

Ok guys....

Difficult if not impossible to answer. There are so many beautiful girls here!

A Tanzanian girl studying in London, coming to Dubai regularly as a tourist? Hmmm. Not saying she's lying, but Dubai is not a place for regular tourism, especially when Europe is a much better destination for her - so close to London, and 'regular' black girls are not automatically seen as hookers in Europe, as they usually are in Dubai.

Regular trips to Dubai. A girl has to pay for her studies, if you know what I mean.

BC - the big bleached blonde is hot in a certain type of way, and maybe worth the climb. I might be tempted one night.

[Barcrawler]

If you're talking about the solid 6'2" bleached blonde at the entrance-end of the bar, you're a brave man! But I guess she's the white equivalent of the 6'2" African Amazon we both know and love. .

That’s the one! It was a long time ago but I was interested in her friend but we ended up in a three some because we had to go to the big girls flat. It turned out the big girl was by far the best and I went back for more on a couple of occasions. Like our African friend, she was solid, not at all flabby. A great girl and a lot of fun if you are not intimadated by her size.

Interesting how opinions can vary.

As always YMMV, or maybe we should say YMWV (your mileage will vary) I did not specifically mean the York was bad, just not as good as the last time I visited.

York 10: 30 to 11:30
I decided to have a further scout and flirt with a few girls.
Not at all crowded....I chatted to an African claiming to be from Madagascar who was quite pleasant.

I thought it was you, but wasn't 100% sure, so I didn't interrupt. Besides, you looked deep in conversation.

Rockafellas 11:30 – 12:40
I had not been here for a long time. I avoided the entry fee.

Same here, but my Asian-looking American pal had to pay, despite my protests that he was my guest. Works sometimes.

I spotted a big, blond acquaintance from a few years back, still in her usual place at the end of the bar.

Conclusion
Jockey’s – Looking up
York – Looking down
Rockafellas – Remains a good location to hunt CIS

Interesting how opinions can vary. For me, York was looking up. Some real stunners there - mainly African, and none of the girls in Regal were love at first sight. In the end, I took my camera, condoms and half-cialis to Seaview (it's been a hard week ), then home around 2:30am.

PS - there were a few Filipinas at York, as well as at Rockbottom and Majestic.

[Wicked Roger]

Thanks for the name. Is it pronounced Dyna as in Dyna rod or deena?

If she is still single in June when my missus goes on hols I will make it a bottle of vodka for her number. That is if I haven't got it from her myself by that time.

As for collecting the pints I will pm you contact details. Do you know wicked roger by any chance?

As he would also like her number as well and maybe persaude her for a threesome GS

I spent Saturday doing paperwork at home, so come evening time I really needed to get out. Plan was a couple of beers and home before 11, It did not work out.

Seems I must have missed Piper on a number of occasions!

Jockey’s 8:40 to 9:10

CIS numbers seem to be down, but the usual T54’s were sat at the bar. What surprised me was the number of PRCs, the lights were up and there were several who did not need to hide in the shadows. There were also a few Africans, including a couple of good looking ones.

Music Room 9:10 – 10:15

Cheap beer – 17 AED a pint, both bands on reasonable form but little in the way of P4P, two inebriated Russian (I am guessing) standing at the bar were probably up for it , but you would have needed to be desperate. There were a few Filipimas, probably civilian, and a couple of Africans.

York 10: 30 to 11:30

I decided to have a further scout and flirt with a few girls.

Not at all crowded. CIS selection contained nothing that floated my boat. There were quite a few PRC but I would say a there was better selection in Jockey’s earlier. Also there were no Africans to match the ones I saw in Jockey’s earlier either. Having said that there were some nice PRC’s, the best occupied and I chatted to an African claiming to be from Madagascar who was quite pleasant. A number of PRC’s who stopped by were keen to offer their place, indicative of wanting a fast turnaround.

Rockafellas 11:30 – 12:40

I had not been here for a long time. I avoided the entry fee.

I must say that when it comes to dressing the CIS girls here make the effort, there were a lot in nice outfits, from the overtly sexy leather mini skirts and boots to the more elegant. I chatted to one good looking Kyrgyz girl, of occidental rather than oriental appearance, good English and a potential GFE, I did not go as far as a price quote, a dark haired girl in shorts an white boots had caught me eye, however I was totally invisible to her. One 'Stani, was a Bai Ling look alike, very oriental, but she was busy. I spotted a big, blond acquaintance from a few years back, still in her usual place at the end of the bar.



By 12:30 it was getting crowded, and I seriously need to get home for some sleep.
