@afneil I lived in Dubai from 2002 to 2013. Every year between December and April there was 2-3 days where there was a massive downpour and then it would hardly rain again for the rest of the year. The locals said it had always been this way. This is not a new event. It’s called weather.

Speaking as a Kiwi living in Ireland, something that is deeply unique about the Irish as a culture is their deep and unabiding love of horses and horse racing. Putting access to it in a place where only the wealthy can afford it ignores so many, especially the elderly. Sad news.

As a blow in to Ireland, I used to be very impressed by amateur status that sat as the foundation stone in the culture of the GAA, because we lost that in NZ rugby with the advent of professionalism and it has since completely decimated our local rugby clubs. Careful now.
