Happy New Year. I wish you all a healthy and prosperous 2010, and a better year than 2009 (which shouldn't be too hard to achieve!)I start the year on a market research trip to the Middle East.
It was always going to be a good trip after my wife managed to sweet talk us into a free upgrade to Business on the flight to Dubai.
First stop was to Gabby and Shomail's house - 2 e25 members from London who have a collection of 5 supercars that they are interested in VOPing if we open up in Dubai. Best of all was the 612 but I couldn't resist asking them if we could borrow the Phantom (with chauffeur) to visit the Yas Island Formula 1 facility.
It was the first time I've been on the "passenger side" of a Rolls Royce and I was really excited. [Note to staff: it's easy we to forget the adrenalin rush from getting into a smart set of wheels - although we do it everyday, for our members its a really special feeling and we should always promote that moment.]
We did a good reckie around the marina, hotel and Ferrari World, and Ilke is 
modeling the preferred location for our Abu Dhabi F1 members trip in November - outside the sushi bar, trackside next to the marina and with a nice view of that fancy hotel lighting blob.
Next stop Bahrain...
I hope your business plans are better than your spelling and sentence structure!
