I was in Bahrain during Ramadan, where the bars were prohibited from selling booze. We had an hilarious meal with wine and beer being served in cups from tea and coffee pots and we got plastered.😂

I first went in there around then and Dubai was still centred around the Creek. We were working on tne World Trade Centre by the waterside. Long demolished

Bars don’t open until sundown during Ramadan and the state run stores shut.

Only places you can booze is in hotel bars or you need a liquor license to buy from state run shops. I hate Dubai, been there a number of times with work.

The plan, if we had one, has been thrown out the window. My view is that tactics, not individuals, are our problem. Our kicking game is predictable and ineffective against top quality opposition. Ceding possession cheaply against France or SA is suicidal.
