Wandering off topic... there is a guy on the Red Issue forum who was at The Address. Booked a table on the 3rd floor terrace to watch the fireworks. He said the whole place was in flames in about 20 seconds!

Just like the fire earlier in the year, no reported deaths. Hmmm... I wonder would they admit it if hotel workers had been killed?

Slightly worrying how quickly both fires took hold.

Anyway, good to hear you're OK, Happy New Year!

Unfortunately, my assignment in Dubai doesn't look like it's happening. Pesky Russians charging half my rate got in
