Last Thursday we went to an amazing dinner at our Chairman's house in Dubai. He owns a whole block in Jumeria Beach by the Burj Al Arab (the one that looks like a sail) and his place is just stunning! There would have been about 130 people there and we sat outside on the "lawn", which was covered in carpet, at amazing tables. Before this however we'd had drinks and nibbles (oh divine nibbles) in the "courtyard" by the pool. Valet parking, someone to serve you every which way you turn...oh how the other half live!
Dinner was incredible - HUGE buffet with differnet sections - you could have fresh bbq, Mongolian, kebabs along with seafood for miles, hot dishes for ages and salads galore! And then there was the pudding table - plus fresh crepes cooked alongisde. WOW!
I had to use the bathroom at some stage of the night (as you do) which was inside. Part of the house is obviously the business end which we used. The long hallway down to the toilets was covered in framed pictures - our Chairman with Bill Clinton, Elton John, Prince Charles...you name the person, they were on the wall! As I was behaving myself, I didn't take my camera although some pics of the photo walls and of the bathroom would have been amazing!
Quiet weekend - trying to get organised for NZ - only 4.5 sleeps tilll I go - I fly out 1am Fri monring so not really a sleep. Looking forward to seeing so many of you. xxx
