Well, for those who are partying naked in Jumeirah beach, be warned that kissing each other in public is strictly forbidden and may lead you to the black box of Uncle Khalifa!  |

"You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by
And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you"
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by
Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny
it's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by"
Not in Dubai (which even rhymes.)
Regards,
John |

Talk about adding salacious unfounded details into a story!! This couple were neither naked nor on a beach.
I read a couple versions of this tale this morning... and the only witness used in the court was a 2 year old Emirati child  whose mother called the police. In what world is a 2 year old a reliable witness. The two were in a restaurant and claim that the kiss was on the cheek.

Apparently Dubai World
And it was a 2 year old out partying at 2 am!
I'd guess there was more to the story than what was reported. |

No, VS, secret agent man was honouring me with remembering my quote from a few years ago when those folk who were arrested for allegedly having sex on the beach in Jumeriah.
Ahhh, an' you remembered me!
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery! "Partying naked in Jumeriah!"
