Happy New Year and 2B2B

Sorry for the lack of posts, I'm afraid I've been 2B2B and having been out of Al Ain for a while it's a little difficult to write about the place.

Gossip from readers has been thin on the ground too and I've been relying on your e mails to keep me in the loop. However, I did get one from a Canadian guy wanting to know how to hook into the Swingers Scene. Sorry, but The Taxi does not approve of 'The Lifestyle', I'm a Taxiwallah of high morals.

Anyway, Happy New Year. I've finally taken the Christmas header off the top of the blog. It's well past 12th night which means I'll probably be cursed with bad luck for the rest of the year now.

If you go look in my January 2006 archives, you will see that I was all keen to lose weight and save money. Well, it's that time again and a year later I'm just as fat and just as skint. So I'm having another try.

A Swingers Song..

(To the tune of 'The Monkey Song' in The Jungle Book)

Now I'm the king of the swingers
The oasis VIP
I was bored with life and bored with my wife
So we joined the swingers scene
I wanna be a man, baby
And swap most every night
I've put my keys in the pot and tried the lot
And that's what's botherin me

The Swingers Scene
The Al Ain Swingers Scee-eene
You can play around
Meet new friends, ooooh
You'll see it's true
A ESL teacher like me
Can have a workmate's wifey every night

( Gee, Mr Expat
You're doin' real good
Now here's your part of the deal, cuz
As your wife I need some lovin too
But I'm not too happy with the selection out there )

Now don't try to kid me, husband
I made a deal with you
What I desire is a decent guy
To make my dream come true
But this, my darling, is Al Ain
And all the men are bland
So let's leave this scene, be just you and me
Before our marriage goes down the pan

The Swingers Scene
The Al Ain Swingers Scee-eene
You can wreck your marriage
Screw it up, ooooh
You'll see it's true
Now the di-vorce rate in Al Ain's through the roof
