It's the addictive nature of CUK. After a hard day sun bathing,sex and sangria Churchy loves nothing more than to snort a couple of finely cut threads...

It had you "down to a tee", so much so that I thought it best, for the good of the CUK bedwetting community(yourself included) to suggest it was edited.

Hth.

It almost definitely would have been nice, I'm nearly 4% sure.

You and CM will fit right in.

Apparently, after a brief investigation, it turned out that the person he'd knocked down was a labourer from the Indian sub-continent.

I had a crash when I was working out there. Similar sort of thing - the other guy was a Pakistani - police turned up, no questions asked he got the blue slip and I got the pink slip.

It depends what you want out of a holiday.

I found it quite breathtaking the pace at which the place is being developed although I realise that I probably don't want to ask too many questions about how that is being achieved.

I liked the place and it is well worth going to have a look but I wouldn't go a second time.

I thought people only used Dubai as a transport hub? Too hot for me...

I got the shock of my life when this one time I noticed long white shorts, gold chain wearing neds in the back of economy - lucky I was separated in business and was only passing through to Oz, still out of reach of the neds...

Dubai,iIt's the new benidorm I tell you...
