If this was us, you wouldn’t be able to shut us up about it for years. People would introduce us at parties by warning their friends we were going to tell the story, it’d be the fun fact we’d use in every icebreaker game. We’d practically put it on our business cards.

This photo from Sheikh Hamdan shows exactly why we love Dubai
Habiba Bin Thaleth, an Emirati woman who Gulf News reports works as a cultural advisor at Dubai’s Knowledge and Human Development authority, wrote to Sheikh Hamdan on social media asking him to come round for a meal.
“Done!” came his reply, the site reports, and so it came pass.
There are a couple of clips of the meal floating around. It looks like quite a spread, and Sheikh Hamdan was joined by his best friend, young Maj, and Uncle Saeed.

Outstanding. We’d love to know what the conversation covered. Photography, wildlife, cave-diving, travel… Sheikh Hamdan’s interests are pretty wide-ranging.
