I’ve spent a couple of days in Dubai twice over the last few years as part of extended stopovers when flying home from Europe.
The pictures coming out of the UAE are simply inconceivable given the normal climate conditions I experienced.

Given the source of the enormous wealth in the country I can’t help thinking “you reap what you sow”.
• The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.
• To the intelligent person, life appears infinitely mysterious, but the stupid have an answer for everything.
First rule of forum debate:
• My opinion becomes truth if I can find one other person, on the Internet with the same opinion. It is 'chiselled in stone" if I find two!
