Picked up my flight to Dubai ok and 6 hrs later I was there, after an in depth discussion with an asian taxi driver from Peterborough! (who was putting the world to rights). Didn't see a lot of Dubai (just the inside of a very posh airport). There was loads of people there asleep on the very posh benches. I thought bloody tramps yo...
