Abu Dabbling

This is unbelivable! The powers that be have decived that the current UAE coastline is 'too irregular for effective planning' therefore it has been decidee to 'straighten it out! Someone has quite literally taken a ruler, joined the tops of the islands and they are simply going to 'fill it in'! Apparently this procedure will facilitate planning, improve communications, bring the coastline into line with the other perfectly straight borders between Oman and Saudi and increase the amount of land available for development. Like we don't have enough already!
