Posts: 49Friendster
Just thought I would share a simple story with you all, I sent a message to a few cute looking girls on Friendster asking if they would be interested in some extra cash.
Well I had some great replies, including some very funny ones but the outcome is that I now have 3 regular girls who I meet when we can and have some great fun.
To be honest I did this as I was sick of the clubs and bars here and thsi way I have found three great 'normal' girls.

As mentioned by Cons68 Arab companies do seem to have no problem not paying the infidels their money.
The super profitable, thieving and censoring telecom company over here owes my previous employer, about 3 million.
Nothing one can do about it.

Posts: 1192Well, many consultancies will charge Arab clients in advance as they do not seem to have too much problem in not paying an infidel company...
Personally I never had problems, but I was lucky that I met some really good guys. I advise to be very careful when doing business here, not only to the WGs.

If you ever wonder how stereotypes are born, here is an example. Two Stanis, suffering from the "Xmas blues" (less family type punters on the street) accept an offer to accompany two "Arabs" (expats, not Emiratis, but residents.)
They were a little concerned about the deal, but turns out ok, and they spend the night with these two "gents." Said punters, in the morning, tell the girls they want to extend the deal for another day, so all is well.
The next day ends with all four out at a club, having a good time. The boys make a "bathroom break" excuse and pull a runner on the girls, leaving them stranded at this bar, with no payment, and stuck with the bar bill.
Nice guys. Said WGīs then proceed to get read the riot act by their boss for not demanding payment up-front for at least the first night. As it turns out, a day or two later one of the lads does answer his mobile, and boss has a few select words for him, including "police", "publicity", a "visit to your villa" and/or "broken kneecaps." Our heroes now promise to pay up, and that it was all a mistake/misunderstanding. Yeah right.
Bossī rant was all bluff, obviously, and has not yielded results after two days (can you say "change your phone number?") but illustrates where the "pay before" comes from.
I am semi-reliably informed that this stems from a deep-seated belief held by some ethnic groups that these are are all "fallen women" worthy of disdain at best.
Seaview Thursday: As reported, not too crowded, but almost every table "reserved" very early. You could actually move through the crowd at midnight. Plenty of talent on the ground, but I had brought a date. In a paranoid moment, did ask date to take her head off my shoulder in the taxi back to the hotel. I was not too worried, but while stuck in traffic, I was getting very hard stares (erect stares?) from a HGV driver in the next lane, who was not making positive comparisons to our relative positions at that moment. Canīt say as I blame him.

On a brighter note, LE activity has certainly decreased in recent days according to my sources. But extreme discretion and caution still advised. I had one, unconfirmed, report of two LE cars and one LE van "mopping up" outside York at around 3.30am on New Year's Day - happy bloody new year.
Be careful out there.

Must be the 'hangover' from the holiday season. While all tables taken, not all that crowded, especially for a Thursday night. Plenty of room to move between the bar and tables. Unfortunately, Mr. Pre-mature lyrics has not taken a vacation; his life must be Groundhog Day, the SAME routine EVERY night. At least they get it out of the way early, so he can disappear.
Newest vocalist seems to have established herself, opening up more, having some fun onstage. Band excellent as usual, throwing in some new tunes, at least for me. They do have a wide range.
Some usual faces, some on dates. Other 'regulars' MIA, pre-booked or taking time off, who knows. Wg numbers a bit sparse, but still a couple of PRC and stani's who I could take home, no problem. Worth a miss for a 1st time/ST visitor, better 'stocked' clubs around, but after you've hit those, Seaview certainly worth a visit. Or bring a date from one of the other clubs - there is dancing to a dj between the band's sets. And the bar does have a pretty decent food menu.

The disadvantage of pulling early (besides paying 'prime time' price) is that she does have an opportunity to return to the bar for the double header if she wants to do a 'pump and dump'.
The punter has the advantage in the bar, she at your place. Always a risk, but by not being shy and specifying everything up-front, that can be reduced as no surprises to either party. Of course, if she is a rip, she'll agree to everything with no intention of actually doing. Stereotyping, I'd say the "controlled" girl more prone to such, as it's not always her decision alone - the pressure to maximize income.
Last resort, once you've gotten the LT price, and knowing she wants to be paid first, you could always ask for a ST quote, paying such up front, asking for LT after. But in reality, too much work, for me anyway. I usually just take my chances, and, most times, no problems. If it's a true rip, then I just post her name and office, and move on.Last edited by 11Bravo; 01-04-08 at 11:46. Reason: add title

10.45pm Radisson Deira
After a pleasant night at the Nad Al Sheba races (will be better when the carnival starts in two weeks time when they will run books in England and we can have a punt, but that's another adult game entirely) decided to revisit Radisson after my previous enjoyable evening there last Thursday.
Didn't bother with Kubu, straight into Marbles (lobby bar) and once again the band were on. The three girls looked stunning this week in little white dresses and the whole band seemed better musically.
The best looking singer even gave me a wave and a "nice to see you again" which was as unexpected as it was nice. Next time I'm there I'll try to get a picture of them, they didn't seem to mind tourists taking their pic.
Anyway, sat near the stage as before and scanned the scene. About 15 WGs in all, enough for such a small venue. About four to five PRCs, two African and the rest CIS, some trying to look more Arabesque than others.
Same two bleached blonde tired-looking CIS in attendance again, but rest were different faces to week before.
Few minutes pass then I notice - how could I miss her before! - a stunning rake slim PRC (just my type) sitting at the table next to me - two spare chairs alongside. While waiting for my drink to arrive it became clear she was on her own. Time to move tables when my drink arrives, I'm thinking. Just then her mobile rings. Long conversation. Leaves the money for her drink (hardly touched) on the table and she's off. Damn! Snooze and lose.
Sat sipping my pint and enjoying the band. One very good looking dark CIS, about 30, at the bar looking at me. Beckon her over. Lovely face and body and nicely dressed, not overly WG. Turns out she's from Tajikistan and we get chatting.
Boy, her story nearly broke my heart. Husband shot dead last year, two sons, one with her in Dubai, trying to support the other back home. We talk for a long time about life, tragedy and everything. I was sorely tempted to talk business with her and take her home but in the end my morality gene kicks in and I tell her I feel sorry for her but I have a GF and I can't take a lady. She looks sad and I feel like a bastard now but we chat some more.
Anyway, time for me to move on. She gives me lovely heartfelt kiss on each cheek, thanks me and off I go into the night.
I had a good feeling about this girl. She seemed very genuine (no BS I'm sure), never mentioned money once and I'm sure would have given a good time. Be interested to hear if anyone else knows her. Maybe I'll be tempted back next week (and leave the morality gene at home)! Who knows.
Be careful out there

Posts: 532Ok guys its not that serious, just call me old fashioned as I believe the thread titles are there for a reason.
I travel as much as any of you and read the thread for the country I intend to visit in order to get an idea of the scene in advance of arrival.
If I want discussion of the scene in Spain for instance I for one would expect to conduct it on the Spanish threads not the Dxb or any other forum. If I am in Manila and want to post about Manila I have and would do it on that thread etc. Of course you can refer to your trip in another thread but I reckon the detailed post belongs on the apropriate thread. The Dxb thread is widely read by people who have no intention or oportunity to visit and I am sure they actually want to read about Dxb not Manila.
Pretty simple concept and it helps the search engine work properly. Similarly I believe the photo threads should have photos - just have a look at some of the other countries photo threads where they mostly consist of opinion and discussion of pretty much anything other than photos.
The count shown is always your total count BTW.
Finally there is no reward in upping your post count unless you are a regular who wants to go up to senior. I do agree that the freedom to post what you want should be upheld.

I generally agree with post what you like though, we can always skip if we don't want to read it and cost nothing.
Either way, glad you enjoyed your trip and Leep it Cocked,

BPd It may be a mute point but if I want to know what is happening in the Philippines I read that forum, indeed as you have posted the same report in the Philippines anyone could do so therefore I guess the only reason you have done so is to up your post count.
Other senior members (including me) manage to post their experiences in other countries on the appropriate thread and make simple refernces to those posts in the Dxb threads.
This certainly is a VVses (Very Very Strange Entry Strategy).
