Vacuum Bay - #226

Vacuum Bay is not the latest real estate folly from Dubai. It's just where lazy people (like Bluey) go to get their car cleaned...

They Think It's All Over... Mabrouk UAE! - #152

Last night the UAE secured a magnificent victory over Oman in the Gulf Cup. This was a huge achievement and the first time in the cup and the UAE's history they have won this trophy.

The above photo is of a pristine white BMW suitably decorated in the national colours. In the UK this would be the work of vandals, here it is the proud owner's work.

The city went fairly crazy with the traditional celebration being to drive like a complete overclocking maniac.

Still - Mabrouk To The Emiratis!



Go Team UAE.

Built To Last - #88

A simple family car, yet located in the depths of off road track territory.

And it looks like it has made the trip many, many times.

Value for money.

Keep On Running!

Do you half a car? - #27

"Do you have a car?" "Yes, I half a car"

"No, I mean do you have a car?" "Ah, No. Sorry. I only have half a car"

The Creek in Dubai is a bustling sea inlet the splits the oldest parts of town in two. It is the traditional hub of the city and has provided its life blood up until 30 or so years ago.

It's still wonderfully vibrant with dhows and abras. They import all sorts. Here we see a bit of a car... why this was deemed to be an item worthy of importation is a bit beyond me...

Deira, Dubai, UAE. Half a car. By Bluey.
