While we’re in the subject of fangirling and bands playing in Dubai, here are a few more photos I took from that very hot evening spent singing along with and watching Boyzone in Dubai. Dear me, this was 3 years ago!

Before we begin, may I remind you that…
You’ve been warned.
In May 2014, Bernie and I had date night to see some Irish lads in concert. The first time they came to Dubai, with two more than now, I could not go see them. Because I just had a baby and it was summer, it was hot and I couldn’t be bothered to put on decent clothes and step out of the house. Anyway. So when i found out they were doing a one-night-only show in Dubai, I did not hesitate to buy tickets. It actually presented a dilemma when Justin Timberlake also announced a show in Abu Dhabi the night following Boyzone’s show. I decided not to go see JT and I don’t regret it. I would not have been able to sing-along because I don’t know most of his songs.
So the evening of the 22nd May came and thank goodness it was not as hot as I thought it would be. The tennis stadium was not fully packed but it was a decent crowd. Shame that Mikey could not join the show, due to a bereavement apparently, but these guys were quite impressive on their own.

Quickie in Manila
It has been a hectic couple of weeks, hence the lack in post updates. However, I’ve found a lull in my busy day at work so I’m taking every chance I can to complete this post before the news I want to share gets old.
Most of you know that Lisa and I flew to Manila last week. On Pearl Business Class. Thank you, Lisa and Etihad Airways! It has spoiled me and flying coach again will be such a drag after this. A couple of hours before our descent, I took this photo of the skies.
Northbound
This time tomorrow, Lisa and myself will be in Manila, relaxing hopefully before the big concert on Friday. I am so excited. Never been this excited. I am so glad to be sharing this experience with Lisa! Full show report when I get back.
J to the L-O
The annual company dinner makes way for a special event this year.
Jennifer Lopez is performing in Dubai for one night only. And that is tonight. In about 5 hours. Assuming she does not pull a Madonna and stumble onto the stage at 11pm!
If you’re there, give me a shout. I’m sure you have my mobile number if we know each other.
Pray it doesn’t rain again!
