Hi 

Radio’s....... I have not picked my own up yet And plan on it tomorrow. Any advice where I can pick up one of the Carnity recommended models in Dubai without driving out to dragon mart. Will be in downtown too marina area most the day. Any advice would be great appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

The closest is still DM. The other area is Deira Nair (but you would have to search which shops would have it)

Don't think any of the off-road shops would have radios in stock.

Hi Brette,

I unfortunately am not able to attend the drive, I updated my RSVP this morning but it doesn’t seem to have been captured. 

hopefully you can still grab somebody from the waitlist, gutted to not be joking you guys out in the dunes, have a blast and I’ll see you all in the sand soon

[Christopher Assal]
