Electricity In Dubai?

[netibiza]

Can anyone confirm that the electricity in Dubai is 220v, and that the plugs are the same as UK ie 3 pin? Thank you.

Morning...just.
Wet start, dried up but some dark looking clouds keep looming. I just can't get motivated.

I have screaming hips sometimes too, keep moving neti but don't overdo it.

My dentist is a lovely woman but I still hate going. She looks too dainty to pull teeth, I suppose it's all in the technique...hope I don't have to find out.

Yesterday I was reading about a pub (now gone) in my old home town. Apparently they had a bear garden....lol. I missed that one :)

Shaney I could not stand this hip pain for too long. It seems pk now. Its my spine, is is slowly curling to the right hence the pain. Doesn't last and doesn't happen very often thank heavens. Do you know. O am so glad I am going nowhere today. I've been for coffee, erected the trellis and threaded fairylights in it, done another pile of ironing, and made a pillow case to match hija's bedding, my stitching is becoming so bad. We still have Thai duck curry to eat tonight, so I bought home from pad Thai noodles from a new Asian takeaway shop who cooks it there and then. So only the rice to sort now.

You all get the gist of it.......

Peeing down in Amsterdam but I am safely on board ship in the lounge surrounded by fine wines I cannot touch, so I am doubly dry.

Neti, have you checked your DNA, your spine might be related to Richard III.

I've had more or less constant hip and back pain for so long now I just live with it .No doubt the xray will just show further wear and tear and general deterioration.Nothing they can do really.
Brightened up a bit now.
Sains brought my shopping and three bags of stuff that I hadn't ordered.Good job I checked before he drove away.Someone's probably wondering what's happened to their groceries and it was all fresh food ,veg,fruit,meat etc. I hope they received it eventually.

Oh goedenmiddag Jno.Heb een mooie tijd.
By the time you get to Basel you should be able to have a drink or three.

[netibiza]

Richard III indeed!! Go away jno!!
Apparently shops deliver here too, but the food would be manky by the time they found the house and if I have to go and meet the driver, well it defeats the object really.
Both Mr N and hija are out, bliss!!!!

[shaneystar2]

The deliver it all in refridgerated vans here Neti.Our Sainsburys stuff comes 20 miles from Norwich to us here on the edge
It's been a very unexciting day here unlike on AB where it seems to be descending into mass hysteria so think I'll turn in with my book.
Night all,sleep tight.

[netibiza]

Good morning all.
I have been on this little piece of Paradise for 45 years!

good morning all and happy anniversary Neti. Tis cool and cloudy here and rather good. Yes my grocery deliveries come from the larger more distant shops. Its dead useful for buying frozen stuff as it gets to my door still frozen solid, better than if I had bought it myself and driven it home in the car, even from the closer shops. Feeling jell of Jno, I would love to do a river cruise but they don't allow dogs.

Morning all
Not a bad day,cooler. Thunderstorms this afto though but we'll wait and see.That's a long time Neti.Mr S has been based here for 41 years on the 30th.You'll have to come and cruise on the Norfolk broads Woofy.Dogs are welcome.

[netibiza]

Is jno on a Viking Cruise, that is sometgin I can only dream of. When one of the biddies wins a large mega amount we will have to cruise.

[jno]

You betcha. It is partly sunny today and we are chugging along the Waal, which is going to turn into the Rhine somewhere ahead. Have visited the wheelhouse and a windmill today.

[netibiza]

Good morning all.
I've already swept and washed big patio, hung out first load of washing, did hand-washing. Tidied lounge changed cushion covers because covered with OJ? Did someone have a party whilst I was sleeping? Mr N decided it would be better to scarper so he's gone out! Getting warmer by the minute.
Hope you are all ok and had a good night. Hope jno is enjoying the cruise.
Been reading the post about spiders getting bigger in UK and appearing now. So glad I am not there.

[netibiza]

Hips fine again with only a twinge yesterday, thank heavens,

[shaneystar2]

Morning all
Cloudy and showers forecast.Back to normal summer.
You've been busy Neti.I've got appt for my xray next Wednesday.
I had a big spider indoors the other day. I shuffled him outside and said to turn left in the direction of Ibiza :)

[netibiza]

Noooo!

[netibiza]

42° in San Antonio. So hot I just can't do anything! Have been in and out the pool and polling on bed in the cool. Had to get the washing in and it was unbearable. But also washed more cushion covers, hija's uniform and cat's protective towel which protects the floor where her pee box is. It was OK but just felt like it. It goes on top of a huge oilcloth just in case of mistakes!!
Have a huge pile of ironing for whenever.
Had a big sandwich for lunch so am not hungry. Mr N is eating melon and ham.

[netibiza]

Obviously I was not polling on the bed, I was lolling as in relaxing not laughing out loud. Not much to laugh out loud about.

It's been sloshing down with rain here most of the late afternoon and evening.Very muggy too.
